Prior AI training experience is not required. Robust, publicly verifiable technical contributions are essential.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Create realistic technical tasks based on professional, scientific, or engineering workflows.

- Build reproducible task environments, reference solutions, tests, and objective evaluation criteria.

- Review AI-generated work for correctness, completeness, and technical quality.

- Diagnose model failures and explain technical errors or incorrect approaches.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Solid programming ability, particularly in Python.

- Scientific or engineering software contributions.

- Public code supporting published research.

- Contributions involving implementation, debugging, testing, performance, infrastructure, simulation, or data processing.

Forks, tutorial-only repositories, superficial documentation edits, contribution counts, and AI-generated repositories alone are insufficient.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience designing technical tests, benchmarks, evaluation tasks, or reproducible environments.

- Experience reviewing code or technical contributions.

- Competition results, publications, or public technical writing.

- Experience contributing to complex projects over an extended period.

CORE TECHNICAL SKILLS

Python 3, Java, Rust, C++ fundamentals, TypeScript, and Go.

APPLICATION PROCESS

1. Submit your application and public technical profiles.

2. Complete an AI interview covering technical and integrity checks.

3. Undergo a hiring-manager review.

4. Complete project onboarding if selected.

COMPENSATION AND WORK ARRANGEMENT

Compensation is output-based, with an estimated equivalent of $60–$120 per hour. Payment is made for tasks that meet project specifications and quality requirements. Actual earnings depend on task complexity, time required, and accepted deliverables.
