About The Position

This role is for a Software Engineering evaluator who will create cutting-edge datasets for training, benchmarking, and advancing large language models, collaborating closely with researchers. This includes curating code examples, providing precise solutions, and making corrections across the full stack — in Python for backend and ML workflows, and JavaScript (React, Node.js) for frontend and API layers, alongside C/C++, Java, Rust, and Go. You will evaluate and refine AI-generated code for efficiency, scalability, and reliability, and work with cross-functional teams to enhance enterprise-level AI-driven coding solutions. The role is ideal for engineers who have built production systems at companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Meta, or similar high-scale engineering organizations. Graduates from leading programs such as Harvard, Columbia, Princeton, Yale, University of Pennsylvania, and comparable institutions are welcomed, though exceptional experience and skill always take precedence over pedigree.

Requirements

• Several years of software engineering experience (3 years or more).
• Strong expertise in building full-stack applications using Python and JavaScript (React, Node.js), with the ability to work across backend and frontend codebases.
• Experience deploying scalable, production-grade software using modern languages and tools.
• Deep understanding of software architecture, design, development, debugging, and code quality/review assessment.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills for clear, structured evaluation rationales.
• Candidates must be based in the United States.

Responsibilities

• Work on AI model training initiatives by curating code examples, building solutions, and correcting code across both Python and JavaScript (React, Node.js), with additional work in C/C++, Java, Rust, and Go.
• Evaluate and refine AI-generated code across backend and frontend contexts to ensure that it is efficient, scalable, and reliable.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance AI-driven coding solutions against industry performance benchmarks.
• Build agents that can verify the quality of the code and identify error patterns across full-stack applications.
• Hypothesize on steps in the software engineering cycle (prototyping, architecture design, API design, production implementation, launch, experiments, monitoring, operational maintenance) and evaluate model capabilities on them.
• Design verification mechanisms that can automatically verify a solution to a software engineering task.
