About The Role
The quality of AI depends entirely on the quality of the problems used to test it. We're looking for researchers and domain experts with deep machine learning knowledge to design the evaluation challenges that define — and push — the limits of today's most capable AI systems.
This isn't routine review work. You'll apply your hard-earned research expertise to craft problems that state-of-the-art models genuinely struggle to solve. Your contributions directly shape how the next generation of AI is measured, benchmarked, and improved.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Fully Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design complex, original machine learning problems rooted in your specific domain of expertise
- Craft evaluation tasks that require advanced domain knowledge well beyond standard ML pipelines
- Draw from your own research experience to create problems that genuinely challenge state-of-the-art AI
- Define rigorous problem statements, evaluation criteria, and gold-standard solutions
- Assess AI-generated ML solutions for correctness, creativity, and methodological soundness
- Document problem difficulty levels, required domain knowledge, and expected AI failure modes
- Collaborate asynchronously with a global team of researchers and engineers
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who You Are
- Graduate-level expertise (MS or PhD preferred) in a scientific or technical domain that intersects with machine learning
- Strong working knowledge of ML methods — model selection, feature engineering, evaluation metrics, and pipeline design
- Deep familiarity with active research problems in your field
- Able to identify precisely where general ML knowledge falls short and specialized domain insight becomes critical
- Experience publishing or conducting original research is highly valued
- Excellent written communication — you can articulate complex problems clearly and precisely
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on intellectually demanding tasks
