We are developing high-quality training and evaluation datasets to improve how Large Language Models (LLMs) perform on real software engineering problems. The core of this project involves identifying and curating verifiable coding tasks from public GitHub repositories, supported by a human-in-the-loop review process.
As a contractor on this project, you will review code written by AI to solve real software tasks. Your feedback will help improve how future AI models learn to write and understand code.
Key Responsibilities
Review and compare 3–4 model-generated code responses for each task using a structured ranking framework
Assess code changes (diffs) for correctness, quality, readability, and performance
Provide clear, concise explanations for your ranking decisions
Maintain consistency and fairness across all evaluations
Identify and document edge cases or unusual model behavior
Collaborate with the team to improve evaluation processes and identify improvement areas
Required Qualifications
Professional Experience
Several years of experience as a software engineer (experience working as a data scientist will not be considered)
Minimum 2 years of experience as a full-stack engineer at a leading tech product company (e.g., Google, Shopify, Microsoft, Snowflake, Meta, PayPal, etc.)
Note: Experience from contractual or part-time roles will not be considered. Only full-time employment qualifies.
Technical Skills
Strong understanding of software design, debugging, and engineering best practices
Familiarity with code review processes and version control systems
Ability to analyze and compare real-world code changes
Excellent written communication skills for clearly explaining technical evaluations
Preferred Qualifications
Degree from a top-ranked university is preferred but not required
Experience working with LLM-generated code or AI evaluation projects
Background in developer tools or systems automation
Exposure to AI research or developer agents
Commitment: 10–20 hours/week, with flexible work hours (partial overlap with Pacific Time)
Duration: 1 month (starting next week, with potential for extension)
Compensation: $50–$150/hour, based on experience, geography, and skill level
