Soil and Water Conservation Scientist

Soil and Water Conservation Scientist (AI Training)

About the Role

We're looking for experienced soil and water conservation scientists to help evaluate and improve AI systems trained on sustainable land and water management content. Your scientific expertise will directly shape how AI understands, reasons about, and communicates critical environmental concepts - from erosion control to watershed management.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role that lets you contribute meaningfully to cutting-edge AI development on your own schedule.
