Pay data for your profession: Engineering AI trainer jobs
How this pay compares
The title points to rating and reviewing ai output: judging a model's answers or code against guidelines, such as which of two is better or whether one is correct and safe. What each kind of AI training work pays
At $88/hr (the midpoint of $55 to $120), this role pays more than 57% of the 207 open engineering roles with a listed pay range, above the median of $80.
Among platforms with 10 or more priced engineering roles, Mercor has the highest median ($88/hr across 35 roles) and micro1 the lowest ($60/hr across 28).
OpenTrain AI roles that closed since late October stayed listed a median of 31 days (122 roles). OpenTrain AI posted this one 5 days ago.
Computed from 2,746 open roles we track across Mercor, micro1, Handshake AI, Alignerr, Appen and OpenTrain AI, refreshed daily. Midpoints of listed ranges; “up to” ceilings are left out of medians.

The work
You will turn engineering requirements into accurate, traceable SysML v2 models and reference architectures. You will also assess AI-generated SysML v2 outputs against clear technical standards and provide structured feedback.
The work uses requirements specifications, Concepts of Operations, Interface Control Documents, and architecture documents to guide modeling decisions. You will communicate asynchronously to clarify deliverables and resolve technical questions.
- Create, review, and validate system models with graphical or textual modeling tools.
- Develop reference solutions and example system architectures for AI evaluation tasks.
- Write rubrics for judging the correctness and quality of AI-generated SysML v2 models.
- Review model outputs and give feedback based on MBSE best practices.
- Apply requirements engineering, system architecture, and requirements traceability methods.
What it pays and takes
This is a remote contractor engagement organized around project or task-based work. The initial pilot is expected to run for approximately four weeks to three months, depending on project needs.
- Pay: $55 to $120 per hour.
- Time: Less than 20 hours per week.
- Location: Remote, open to candidates in the countries specified for this project.
- Language: Fluent English.
