Job description
We are hiring experienced Software Engineers (Python-focused) to support high-impact research collaborations with leading AI labs.
In this project-based engagement, you will contribute to building training datasets that improve AI model reasoning and problem-solving across real-world coding tasks.
This is a unique opportunity to apply your software engineering expertise toward shaping the next generation of intelligent systems.
About the Project
You will work on SWE-bench-style tasks derived from real open-source repositories.
Since frontier AI models do not expose their internal reasoning traces, your role will involve:
- Reconstructing model reasoning
- Annotating solution trajectories
- Inferring thought processes behind debugging and implementation steps
You will use your own developer problem-solving approach to reconstruct and annotate realistic reasoning flows., * Review model-generated code trajectories on realistic software engineering tasks
- Reconstruct step-by-step chain-of-thought reasoning
- Annotate debugging logic, decision points, and problem-solving strategies
- Use full context (codebase, issues, test cases) to infer plausible reasoning
- Ensure technical accuracy and alignment with real-world developer workflows, * Independent Contractor Engagement
- Fully Remote
- Flexible schedule
- Weekly payments via Stripe or Wise
- Projects may be extended or concluded based on needs and performance
- No access to confidential employer data required
Requirements
Do you have experience in TypeScript?, Do you have a Bachelor's degree?, * 2+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
- Strong debugging experience in real codebases
- Proficiency in Python (primary)
- Familiarity with JavaScript / TypeScript or other open-source languages (preferred)
- Experience with Git workflows (PRs, issue tracking)
- Ability to articulate technical reasoning clearly in writing
- Bachelor's degree in CS, Software Engineering, or related field, * Strong analytical thinker
- Comfortable explaining technical reasoning
- Detail-oriented and methodical
- Familiar with open-source contribution workflows
- Interested in AI and LLM research
