Role Overview
Utility technicians apply hands-on field experience with metering, distribution, and substation operations to evaluate AI-generated content and produce expert training data that reflects real-world utility workflows and practices.
Key Responsibilities- Use your practical knowledge of field operations, metering systems, and utility infrastructure to review and rate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy and relevance.
- Provide written feedback and corrections that capture real procedures, safety practices, and equipment behavior encountered on the job.
- Create expert-level examples and annotations based on tools and workflows you use in daily work.
- Contribute to short, project-based tasks on an as-needed basis to improve AI understanding of utility technician activities.
- Minimum 4 years of professional experience in utility field operations, metering, or infrastructure maintenance.
- Relevant roles include Meter Technician, Utility Technician, Field Service Technician, Distribution Technician, Substation Technician, or Line Technician.
- Hands-on experience with one or more of these workflows: meter installation and testing, distribution system maintenance, outage response, or substation operations.
- Familiarity with utility systems and software such as AMI platforms, SCADA, Oracle MDM, IBM Maximo, or ArcGIS is preferred.
- Strong written communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently in a remote, asynchronous environment.
- No prior experience with AI required.
- Engagement type: hourly contract work, not a traditional employee position.
- Location: fully remote.
- Schedule: flexible, asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement.
- Typical participation: most contributors work approximately 5, 20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
- Project placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.
