Overview

Handshake AI seeks experienced building energy and auditing professionals for a fellowship built around part-time contract work that supports AI research. You will use your background in building energy modeling, energy auditing, and performance benchmarking to test AI-generated answers against real-world workflows. The project keeps going, so you can keep your current job and contribute on your own schedule. Your feedback helps models grasp how audits, modeling runs, and benchmarks work in practice.

What You'll Do5

  • Create expert-level training questions and scenarios from real building energy and auditing workflows.
  • Evaluate AI-generated answers for accuracy and relevance to energy modeling and auditing tasks.
  • Provide structured written feedback that helps improve AI model performance.
  • Check model outputs against performance benchmarking methods and accepted audit practices.
  • Complete tasks at your own pace with no set schedule or minimum hour requirement.

Requirements4

  • At least 2 years of professional experience in building energy management, auditing, or modeling.
  • Background in a role such as Energy Auditor, Building Energy Modeler, HVAC Energy Engineer, or LEED Energy Modeler.
  • Hands-on use of EPA Portfolio Manager or eQUEST.
  • Clear writing, close attention to detail, and comfort working on your own in a remote, asynchronous setting.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate brings at least two years in building energy management, auditing, or modeling and has used EPA Portfolio Manager or eQUEST on real projects. Titles such as Energy Auditor, Building Energy Modeler, HVAC Energy Engineer, or LEED Energy Modeler fit well. This work suits someone who can write clear, structured feedback and manage a remote, asynchronous workload alongside another job. Candidates without hands-on tool experience often score low, even when their general energy background looks strong. The same happens to those who submit vague responses or miss the accuracy check that AI evaluation tasks require.

Salary Insight

The role pays up to $80.00 per hour. That rate sits near the top of typical ranges for part-time AI evaluation and domain expert review work, which matches the premium placed on specialized building energy and auditing knowledge. Final pay may depend on project scope and your demonstrated expertise.
