Overview

Handshake AI hires energy specialists to build and review training data for AI models. In this part-time remote fellowship, you apply your drilling operations background to judge AI answers, flag errors, and craft reference examples. Tools you may use include WellView, SAP, ComboCurve, or AVEVA PI, depending on your experience. The schedule stays async with about 5 to 20 hours each week during active projects, so you can fit the work around other commitments. No prior AI experience is needed.

What You'll Do7

  • Evaluate AI-generated responses about drilling and completions for accuracy and relevance.
  • Create expert training examples that show correct drilling workflows, well planning steps, and energy data practices.
  • Use WellView, SAP, ComboCurve, or AVEVA PI to ground feedback in real operational data.
  • Review model output for errors in well cost analysis, completions design, or drilling operations.
  • Document the reasoning behind each correction so AI research teams grasp the domain context.
  • Work on your own and on an async schedule, with no minimum hour requirement.
  • Adjust to new project scopes as Handshake AI matches your profile to active needs.

Requirements7

  • At least 2 years of professional work in drilling, completions, or related energy operations.
  • Background as a Drilling Engineer, Completions Engineer, Well Cost Analyst, Drilling Superintendent, or similar energy role.
  • Hands-on use of at least one tool: WellView, SAP, ComboCurve, or AVEVA PI.
  • Clear writing that explains technical decisions to people outside your specialty.
  • Careful review habits and comfort working alone on async tasks.
  • Written collaboration with AI research teams.
  • No prior AI experience needed.

Who Should Apply

The best fit brings at least two years in drilling, completions, or energy operations and uses tools such as WellView, SAP, ComboCurve, or AVEVA PI in real work. You may come from a Drilling Engineer, Completions Engineer, Well Cost Analyst, or Drilling Superintendent seat. The role suits people who write clearly, catch small errors in technical answers, and manage their own schedule. Candidates often lose fit when they list general energy knowledge without naming specific tools, or when they apply with no hands-on drilling or completions experience. This work also fits poorly if you need fixed hours, frequent live meetings, or a permanent position.

Salary Insight

Handshake AI lists compensation up to $85.00 per hour for this fellowship. For part-time AI data work, a rate at that level points to demand for niche drilling and completions knowledge rather than general annotation. Hours vary by active project, and the listing does not promise a minimum schedule each week. Final pay details come later in the process if your background matches a project.
