Overview

Handshake AI pairs seasoned sustainability and ESG professionals with project-based AI research. You will apply hands-on knowledge of carbon accounting, GHG reporting, and environmental compliance to assess model outputs and create expert training scenarios. The work takes place in a remote setting on your own schedule, with no minimum hours, so it fits alongside a current job. Your feedback shapes how AI systems handle real sustainability workflows.

What You'll Do4

  • Build expert-level training questions and scenarios drawn from actual sustainability and ESG workflows.
  • Evaluate AI-generated answers for accuracy, relevance, and alignment with carbon accounting and compliance practices.
  • Write structured feedback that flags errors, gaps, and weak reasoning to improve model performance.
  • Set your own hours and complete review tasks without a fixed schedule or minimum time commitment.

Requirements4

  • At least 2 years of professional work in sustainability, ESG, or environmental compliance. Relevant titles include Sustainability Manager, ESG Analyst, Carbon Accounting Manager, GHG Inventory Lead, or Environmental Compliance Manager.
  • Hands-on use of one or more platforms: Persefoni, GaBi, EPA eGGRT, or VelocityEHS.
  • Clear written communication with close attention to detail.
  • Capacity to work on your own in a remote, asynchronous setting.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate has at least two years in sustainability, ESG, or environmental compliance and brings direct experience with Persefoni, GaBi, EPA eGGRT, or VelocityEHS. You write with precision, spot factual gaps in complex reporting, and can manage project work without a fixed schedule. The role suits someone who wants part-time, remote AI training work alongside a full-time sustainability job. Candidates who lack hands-on carbon accounting or GHG inventory experience often score low because the tasks demand real workflow knowledge, not general interest. People who need frequent direction or structured daily hours may also find this project a poor fit.

Salary Insight

Compensation goes up to $80.00 per hour. For project-based AI training, that top rate tends to match specialists who bring direct experience with Persefoni, GaBi, EPA eGGRT, or VelocityEHS. Because the fellowship is part-time and sets no minimum hours, your total earnings depend on how many tasks you take on.
