What to prepare
- MS or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, or BS in Mechanical Engineering with 8+ years of relevant industry experience. At least 5 years of hands-on experience in mechanical design, analysis, or R&D. Expert knowledge of statics/dynamics, thermodynamics, FEA, and vibration/structural analysis. Proven ability to analyze complex mechanical systems using finite element methods, hand calculations, and experimental validation. Familiarity with relevant standards bodies (ASME BPVC, ASME codes) and design-for-reliability practices. Professional English proficiency with exceptional written and verbal communication skills. Experience with FEA/simulation software (ANSYS, Abaqus, Nastran), CAD platforms, or product R&D in a manufacturing environment is a plus. Strongly preferred — evidence of problem-authoring rigor, such as: service on an olympiad problem committee; a textbook problem-set or solutions-manual author credit; an item-writer role on an NCEES or academic qualifying-exam committee; service on an ASME BPVC or related codes/standards committee; a top placement or team-lead role in Formula SAE/Formula Student, ASME Student Design Competition/HPVC, NASA RASC-AL, or a DARPA challenge; a best-paper award at ASME IMECE, IDETC, or Turbo Expo, or a publication in JMPS; an ASME Melville or Blackall Medal; or an early-career fellowship/grant (NSF CAREER, DOE Early Career, ONR/AFOSR YIP, Sloan Fellowship) or ASME Fellow recognition. Compensation Structure Compensation is output-based; experts are paid per task that meets the project specifications. The time required to complete work may vary depending on the expert's experience and workflow. Minimum submission requirements apply. Experts must submit a minimum of tasks per week.
