Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Kake is building a talent pool of Electrical Engineering professionals with Python proficiency for AI development initiatives. The role focuses on evaluating and enhancing frontier AI models through technical problem-solving and simulation expertise.
Responsibilities
- Identify an appropriate electrical engineering simulation package and build problems whose solution genuinely hinges on that tool's core capabilities, whether solvers, simulation kernels, or domain-specific models
- Develop full Python solutions for each problem, providing all necessary netlist files and circuit definitions as required
- Establish the correct numerical output and define how close the AI model needs to get, using tolerance values appropriate to the engineering context
- Run the problem against the AI model across multiple parallel attempts, analyzing where it succeeds or falls short, and adjusting difficulty until the pass rate falls between 10% and 30%
- Tune circuit topologies, operating conditions, and solver parameters iteratively, building an understanding of how the model navigates complex circuit, control, and power systems problems
- Hand off completed tasks to a senior reviewer in your subfield and refine based on their feedback before final submission
Skills
- Academic background in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field
- At least 2 years of hands-on experience in engineering research, applied work, or teaching
- Solid Python skills, applied to writing and validating computational solutions
- Capacity to build problems that cannot be solved without specialized simulation software
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
- Ability to work independently in a remote, fast-paced environment
- Working knowledge of one or more domain-specific electrical engineering tools, including but not limited to ngspice, scikit-rf, python-control, pandapower, or PyPSA, or a demonstrated ability to get up to speed independently
- Prior exposure to how frontier AI models approach complex simulation tasks
- Knowledge spanning more than one engineering domain, such as circuit analysis, control systems, or power systems
- Familiarity with containerized or sandboxed Linux execution environments
