Overview

Handshake AI seeks civil and structural engineers in Canada to support AI research on a part-time, project-based contract. You draw on design, modeling, estimating, and project delivery experience to build engineering problems and judge AI answers for technical accuracy and real-world feasibility. Work fits alongside a current role, with self-scheduled tasks and no minimum hours. Civil engineering, structural design, takeoff and estimating, and applied simulation form the core of the review work. The initiative runs as an ongoing fellowship, not a permanent staff position.

What You'll Do4

  • Write engineering problems that reflect actual design, modeling, estimating, and construction project tasks.
  • Assess AI responses for technical correctness and whether a practicing engineer could apply them in the field.
  • Deliver written feedback in a structured format to guide model improvement.
  • Set your own schedule and work without a minimum hour requirement.

Requirements7

  • Current civil or structural engineering role, or field experience within the last three years.
  • A BS, MS, or PhD in civil engineering, structural engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Direct ownership of technical outputs such as models, calculations, quantity takeoffs, or cost estimates used by others to build, price, or approve work.
  • Depth in at least one area: fabrication-accurate modeling, code-based structural design, takeoff and estimating, or applied simulation.
  • Evidence of producing the technical work yourself, since the role values hands-on output over job title or years served.
  • PE or EIT credential preferred, though not required.
  • Residency in Canada.

Who Should Apply

Candidates who thrive here hold a civil or structural engineering degree and keep an active hand in design, modeling, estimating, or simulation work. You have produced calculations, models, quantities, or estimates that crews, pricing teams, or reviewers rely on, and you can explain the choices behind them. The role suits engineers in Canada who want flexible project work next to a full-time job, including PE or EIT holders. People without recent field experience or without ownership of technical outputs tend to score low, because the tasks demand first-hand judgment rather than general engineering knowledge. Applicants who submit vague project examples or cannot point to specific code-based designs or takeoffs often get rejected.

Salary Insight

Pay appears as $72.00 per hour. Project-based AI review work at that level tends to target engineers with recent hands-on design, modeling, or estimating experience rather than junior candidates.
