[Hiring] SolveSpace Specialist - AI Trainer @Handshake

Role Description

Handshake is looking for skilled SolveSpace users to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional job. You'll draw on your hands-on experience with geometric constraint modeling, mechanism design, or parametric 3D CAD to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand mechanical design tasks and engineering workflows. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside anything else you have going on.

Qualifications

• At least 3+ years of hands-on experience with SolveSpace, whether through professional work or freelance projects
• A working knowledge of geometric constraint solving, mechanism design, and parametric modeling concepts
• Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
• The ability to work independently and follow written guidelines

Requirements

• Experienced SolveSpace user who has worked in or around roles like Mechanical Engineer, Mechanism Design Engineer, Robotics Engineer, R&D Engineer, Kinematics Researcher, or CAD Designer
• Solid experience with one or more of the following:
• Geometric constraint modeling, mechanism design, or parametric 3D CAD using SolveSpace
• Robotics CAD, kinematic analysis, or mechanical assembly workflows
• Annotating or labeling CAD models and engineering drawings
• Reviewing mechanical designs for accuracy, performance, or design consistency

Benefits

• Status: Independent contractor (not a full-time employee role)
• Location: Fully remote; work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop or laptop computer
• Schedule: Flexible and asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement. Many contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when assigned to an active project
• Duration: The Handshake AI program runs year-round, with projects opening periodically across different areas of expertise. Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available

Work Authorization

• Must be currently residing in the United States.
• F-1 students who are eligible for CPT or OPT may be eligible for projects on Handshake AI. Work with your Designated School Official to determine your eligibility. If your school requires a CPT course, Handshake AI may not meet your school's requirements. STEM OPT is not supported.
