We are looking for Senior Cargo Condition and Securing Surveyor candidates for a project delivered through the hiring partner.
What you'll do
- Evaluate refrigerated and temperature-controlled cargo documentation, such as reefer temperature logs and condition records, to assess compliance and identify potential issues.
- Analyze finished-vehicle and food transport evidence, including damage reports and compliance documents, to determine condition, causation, and potential losses.
- Perform remote assessments of container integrity, cargo securing methods, and lashing arrangements using photographic and written shipment records.
- Review hatch-cover inspection reports and related marine cargo documentation to assess sealing, weatherproofing, and compliance with safety standards.
- Write clear, professional surveyor findings and damage attributions, providing detailed reasoning for each conclusion as would be required in a signed surveyor's report.
- Deliver structured, written feedback to support the training and evaluation of advanced AI models focused on cargo logistics and compliance.
What you need
- 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.
Nice to have
- At least 7 years of experience as a cargo surveyor specializing in reefer and temperature-controlled shipments, containerized cargo, or cargo securing and lashing practices.
