Visual Reasoning (SME)

Industrial Technical Visual Reasoning Specialist (Subject Matter Expert)
Job Overview
We are seeking experienced engineers, technical professionals, simulation specialists, and domain experts to
develop high-quality multimodal reasoning benchmarks based on authentic industrial and engineering artifacts.
The experts will create realistic, professional-grade visual reasoning problems that evaluate advanced
structural, spatial, functional, and analytical reasoning skills. Contributors will leverage real-world technical
documentation, drawings, schematics, layouts, and engineering artifacts to create benchmark tasks that can
only be solved through careful visual interpretation and domain expertise.
The benchmark spans multiple engineering and industrial disciplines and is intended to assess the reasoning
capabilities of advanced AI systems on realistic professional workflows.
Key Responsibilities
Benchmark Content Development
• Create complex visual reasoning problems based on authentic industrial and engineering artifacts.
• Develop tasks that require multi-step reasoning, analysis, troubleshooting, design interpretation,
planning, or decision-making.
• Ensure that the visual artifact is essential to solving the problem and that the task cannot be answered
from text alone.
• Design questions that emphasize structural, spatial, functional, and systems-level reasoning rather than
simple visual lookup or OCR.
Problem/Solution Authoring
For each benchmark item, create:
1. Problem Statement
o A clear and unambiguous description of the task.
2. Visual Artifact
o An authentic engineering or industrial artifact such as a CAD drawing, schematic, blueprint, floor
plan, P&ID, assembly diagram, process flow diagram, network topology, plant layout, or system
diagram.3. Final Answer
o A concise, objective, and verifiable answer.
4. Worked Solution
o A detailed step-by-step reasoning process demonstrating how the answer is derived from the
visual artifact.
