Remote | Manufacturing Specialist — $80–$120/hour
About The Position
This is a fully remote, independent-contractor consulting opportunity for an experienced Manufacturing Specialist contributing to an advanced AI training and manufacturing-evaluation project. The specialist will evaluate manufacturing workflows and AI-generated technical content, and develop evaluation rubrics focused on CAM, CNC machining, and Autodesk Fusion 360. The work requires practical manufacturing judgment and the ability to assess technical accuracy, efficiency, and real-world feasibility. Prior AI experience is not required. Compensation is listed as $80–$120 per hour, although the actual compensation structure is output-based, with payment per task that meets project specifications. Task completion time may vary by experience and workflow, and minimum weekly submission requirements apply; the required number of tasks is not specified. Screening includes an approximately 30-minute AI interview followed by hiring-manager review. Roles are typically filled within approximately 48 hours, with initial tasks expected within approximately 24–48 hours after onboarding. Project scope, workload, manufacturing scenarios, and evaluation standards may change with project requirements. Work must not use confidential or proprietary information belonging to an employer, client, institution, or other third party. The opportunity is available through 24-MAG LLC, which connects experienced professionals with remote consulting opportunities.
Requirements
