About The Position

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment. This opportunity involves building a dataset to evaluate AI coding agents by assessing how well a model handles real-world developer tasks. You will create challenging tasks and evaluation criteria within realistic simulated environments.

Requirements

  • 5+ years in software development
  • Core stack: Python (FastAPI), JavaScript/TypeScript (React), Docker, Postgres, Kafka, Redis
  • Experience writing tests (functional, integration)
  • English proficiency - B2+

Nice To Haves

  • Experience in QA or Security

Responsibilities

  • Build realistic developer environments, including a virtual company with a codebase, infrastructure, and context (tickets, docs, conversations) that forms a believable development history.
  • Design tasks from intermediate states of these environments, crafting the prompt, defining what "solved" means, and ensuring the task is solvable by an AI agent.
  • Write tests that verify agent solutions, accepting all valid approaches and rejecting incorrect ones.
  • Iterate on tasks and tests based on QA feedback, reviewing agent solutions, analyzing failures, and refining until the evaluation is fair and robust.

Benefits

  • Project-based opportunities
  • Up to $50/hr equivalent compensation
  • Tasks estimated at ~20 hours each
  • Set your own schedule
