Machine Learning Evaluation Specialist– Remote, Cork

Machine Learning Evaluation Specialist (Remote) We’re hiring domain experts to build evaluation tasks that challenge the frontier of AI. This is not an ML engineering role – it’s a research role. You’ll use deep expertise in your field to create problems that general ML knowledge can’t touch.

What you’ll do

Propose and frame original, research‑grade ML problems rooted in your domain

Design evaluation tasks that require specialized knowledge well beyond standard pipelines

Assess AI-generated solutions for correctness, creativity, and methodological rigor– and explain exactly where and why they fall short

Document problem difficulty, required domain knowledge, and expected failure modes

What you need

Graduate‑level expertise (MS or PhD preferred) in a scientific or technical domain that intersects with ML

Strong working knowledge of ML methods– model selection, feature engineering, evaluation metrics

Deep familiarity with active research problems in your field– you know where general ML knowledge runs out

Excellent written communication– you can articulate complex problems clearly and precisely. This cannot be overstated.

Self‑motivated and comfortable working independently on intellectually demanding tasks

What you don’t need

No prior AI training or RLHF experience required

No software engineering background needed– domain expertise and research instincts are what matter

Domains we’re especially looking for

Computational Biology / Bioinformatics

Genomics / Molecular Biology

Physics / Astrophysics / Signal Processing

Climate / Environmental Modeling

Healthcare / Medical Imaging

Neuroscience / Brain‑Computer Interfaces

Materials Science / Chemistry

Finance / Quantitative Modeling

Robotics / Control Systems / Reinforcement Learning

Advanced NLP (specialized domains)

Mathematics / Statistics (applied)

Logistics

Additional details

Fully remote– work from anywhere

$200–$400/hr depending on domain and seniority

10–40 hrs/week, hourly contract

Assessment required– paid if approved

Independent contractor (1099)– not compatible with F‑1 OPT, STEM OPT, or visa statuses requiring W‑2 employment or employer sponsorship

This is a project‑based, freelance opportunity with no guaranteed hours. We recommend keeping other work options open while waiting for project assignment.
