Petroleum Engineers - AI Trainer (Contract)
Overview
Handshake is recruiting Petroleum Engineer Professionals to contribute to an hourly, temporary AI research project—but there’s no AI experience needed. In this program, you’ll leverage your professional experience to evaluate what AI models produce in your field, assess content related to your field of work, and deliver clear, structured feedback that strengthens the model’s understanding of your workplace tasks and language. The Handshake AI opportunity runs year-round, with project opportunities opening periodically across different areas of expertise.
Details
• The position is remote and asynchronous; work independently from wherever you are.
• The hours are flexible, with no minimum commitment, but most average 5-20 hrs
• The work includes developing prompts for AI models that reflect your field, and then evaluating responses.
• You’ll learn new skills and contribute to how AI is used in your field
• Your placement into a project will be dependent on project availability—if you apply now and can’t work on this project, more will be available soon.
Qualifications
• You have at least 4 years of professional experience in one or more of the following types of work.
• The examples below reflect the types of real-world responsibilities that you might have had in your role that will give you the context needed to evaluate and train high-quality AI models
• Specify and supervise well modification and stimulation programs to
maximize oil and gas recovery.
• Monitor production rates, and plan rework processes to improve production.
• Maintain records of drilling and production operations.
• Analyze data to recommend placement of wells and supplementary processes to
enhance production.
• Assist engineering and other personnel to solve operating problems.
• Direct and monitor the completion and evaluation of wells, well testing, or
well surveys.
• Develop plans for oil and gas field drilling, and for product recovery and
treatment.
• Assess costs and estimate the production capabilities and economic value of
oil and gas wells, to evaluate the economic viability of potential drilling
sites.
• Confer with scientific, engineering, and technical personnel to resolve
design, research, and testing problems.
• Interpret drilling and testing information for personnel.
• Coordinate activities of workers engaged in research, planning, and
development.
• Write technical reports for engineering and management personnel.
• Evaluate findings to develop, design, or test equipment or processes.
• Test machinery and equipment to ensure that it is safe and conforms to
performance specifications.
• Assign work to staff to obtain maximum utilization of personnel.
• Simulate reservoir performance for different recovery techniques, using
computer models.
• Design and implement environmental controls on oil and gas operations.
• Supervise the removal of drilling equipment, the removal of any waste, and
the safe return of land to structural stability when wells or pockets are
exhausted.
• Inspect oil and gas wells to determine that installations are completed.
• Coordinate the installation, maintenance, and operation of mining and oil
field equipment.
• Take samples to assess the amount and quality of oil, the depth at which
resources lie, and the equipment needed to properly extract them.
• Design or modify mining and oil field machinery and tools, applying
engineering principles.
• Conduct engineering research experiments to improve or modify mining and
oil machinery and operations.
• Use drone technology for aerial surveying and monitoring of drilling sites.
You’re able to participate in asynchronous work in partnership with leading AI labs.
