Environmental Engineering – AI Data Trainer About The Role We partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. Now we're looking for environmental engineering experts to help us make those models smarter, safer, and more technically rigorous. Your domain knowledge — in water treatment, air quality, hazardous waste, and beyond — will directly shape how AI reasons through complex environmental problems.

This is a rare opportunity to apply your graduate-level expertise in a high-impact, flexible freelance role at the frontier of AI development.

Organization: Alignerr

Type: Hourly Contract

Location: Remote

Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do Design Advanced Problems — Craft technically rigorous environmental engineering challenges spanning contaminant transport, mass balance in treatment plants, hydrology, Life Cycle Assessments (LCA), and more

Author Gold-Standard Solutions — Develop step-by-step reference solutions including chemical dosage calculations, hydraulic flow models, and pollutant dispersion simulations that serve as benchmarks for AI outputs

Audit AI Responses — Evaluate AI-generated remediation plans, environmental impact statements, and technical calculations for accuracy, safety, and regulatory compliance (EPA, ISO 14001, and similar standards)





Sharpen AI Reasoning — Identify logical flaws in AI outputs — such as incorrect stoichiometry in biological processes or missing secondary environmental impacts — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance

Work on Your Schedule — Complete assignments independently and asynchronously, with full flexibility over when and how much you work Who You Are Pursuing or completed a Master's or PhD in Environmental Engineering, Civil Engineering (environmental focus), or a closely related field

Strong foundational expertise in one or more core areas: aquatic chemistry, wastewater process design, air quality engineering, or hazardous waste remediation

Able to communicate complex technical and ecological concepts clearly in writing

Accurate and detail-oriented — especially when it comes to unit conversions, chemical equations, and regulatory compliance logic

No prior AI experience required — we'll get you up to speed Nice to Have Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or technical review workflows

Familiarity with environmental modeling software (e.g., AERMOD, SWMM, EPA models)

Background in EHS compliance or environmental consulting Why Join Us Work on cutting-edge AI projects with top research labs and organizations

Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, from anywhere

Freelance autonomy with the variety of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work

Make a real impact — your expertise helps ensure AI gets environmental engineering right

Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
