ParaView Specialist - AI Trainer
Role Overview
This is a mid-level contract role where you will use your ParaView expertise to evaluate AI-generated content related to computational science, focusing on tasks like CFD post-processing and scientific visualization. You'll work independently on project-based assignments, providing feedback to improve AI understanding of HPC workflows and large dataset analysis. The impact involves enhancing AI accuracy for real-world scientific applications through detailed review and annotation of simulation outputs.
Perks & Benefits
The role offers fully remote work with flexible, asynchronous hours and no minimum time commitment, allowing you to balance it with other activities. As an independent contractor, you can work from anywhere in the U.S. with reliable internet, typically contributing 5-20 hours per week on active projects. While career growth is project-based with opportunities for future assignments, the culture emphasizes autonomy and support for ongoing AI research initiatives.

Computational Fluid Dynamics Engineer or Research Scientist
Aerospace Engineer or Applied Mathematician
HPC Specialist or Computational Scientist
You should have solid experience with one or more of the following:
Scientific visualization, CFD post-processing, or large dataset analysis using ParaView
Fluid dynamics simulation, VTK workflows, or HPC data pipelines
Annotating or labeling simulation outputs and scientific datasets
Reviewing visualization results for accuracy, performance, or scientific consistency
What You'll Do
You'll use your experience with ParaView to create tool-related questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy and relevance to real-world CFD and scientific visualization workflows.
No prior AI or technical experience is required.
Qualifications
We're looking for people who have:
At least 3+ years of hands-on experience with ParaView, whether through professional work or freelance projects
A working knowledge of CFD post-processing, scientific visualization concepts, and HPC workflows
Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
The ability to work independently and follow written guidelines
