Opportunity Overview
Handshake is seeking experienced Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Specialists to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional full-time EHS role. You’ll use your real-world experience implementing safety programs, conducting assessments, and supporting compliance activities to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand EHS tasks, regulations, and workplace practices.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside your primary employment.

- Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Specialist
- Health and Safety Specialist, Safety Professional, or HSE Specialist
- Environmental Specialist with EHS program responsibilities
- EHS Coordinator or Occupational Health and Safety professional
This is not a traditional full-time role. You’ll apply once and, if qualified, be considered for part-time, project-based work as new projects become available.
What You’ll Do
This project involves using your professional experience as an Environmental Health and Safety Specialist to design job-related questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy and relevance to real-world EHS work.
No prior AI or technical experience is required.

- 4+ years of professional experience in Environmental Health and Safety or closely related specialist or coordinator roles
- Hands-on experience conducting inspections, risk assessments, incident investigations, and supporting safety or environmental compliance activities
- Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
- Comfortable working independently and following written guidelines
- Professional judgment, reliability, and a high standard of discretion and confidentiality, especially with sensitive or proprietary information.
Work Model and Project Details
- Status: Independent contractor (not a full-time employee role)
- Location: Fully remote; work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop or laptop computer
- Schedule: Flexible and asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement. Many contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when assigned to an active project
