Marine Geology SME - Core Logging & Sedimentology

Role Title: Marine Geology SME - Core Logging & Sedimentology Role Type: Contractor Location: Remote micro1 is engaging Marine Geology SME - Core Logging & Sedimentology experts to contribute to a client's project focused on the marine sciences. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. Scope of Work - Perform rigorous, statement-by-statement validation of marine geology and sedimentology reference answers, ensuring technical accuracy and clarity. - Assess AI-generated outputs related to marine lithology, sedimentary structures, grain-size classifications, and offshore core sampling protocols. - Provide clear, detailed feedback and suggested improvements on core logging and sediment identification content. - Apply advanced knowledge of marine sedimentology to evaluate sediment and ocean floor descriptions, including soil and rock layer identification. - Utilize experience with offshore core logging and visual core description to review and annotate case studies and test sets. - Document insights, ambiguities, and edge cases encountered during content review, supporting continuous improvement. Preferred Qualifications - Advanced qualification in Marine Geology, Marine Sedimentology, or a closely related discipline. - Extensive hands-on experience with core logging, sediment sampling, and core description (visual and analytical) in offshore or marine settings. - Proven expertise in identifying marine sediments, sedimentary structures, and characterizing soil and rock layers in oceanic environments. - Strong written and verbal communication skills, with an emphasis on precise technical articulation and critical review. - Background in conducting or supervising offshore sedimentological surveys or participating in marine core sampling projects. - Familiarity with standard offshore sampling practices and the nuances of visual core description protocols. - Experience reviewing or developing educational, reference, or training materials in the earth sciences is a plus.
