USASeniorRemotesoftware engineeringai evaluationcoding agents
Evaluate the quality of interactions with AI coding agents focusing on engineering judgment and interaction quality, not production coding.
Requirements
- Staff / Principal-level engineer (or equivalent experience)
- Strong background in one of the below: TypeScript / JavaScript
- Python
- Hands-on experience using: OpenAI Codex
- Claude Code
- Cursor
- Deep familiarity with modern AI-assisted dev workflows
- Able to evaluate code without needing to fully execute or deeply review every line
- Comfortable giving direct, opinionated feedback
- High bar for what “good engineering” looks like
Nice to have
- Experience with tools like Cursor or similar AI-first IDEs
- Prior exposure to prompt design or evaluation workflows
- Experience mentoring senior engineers or defining engineering standards
Other
- Roles open on a rolling basis - apply to join the talent bench and we’ll reach out when one matches. Expect 40+ hrs once a project starts; timing depends on availability, but we move people in at the earliest genuine opportunity.
- These roles are currently filled but we hire on a rolling basis as new projects open up. Apply now to join our talent bench — qualified candidates will be contacted directly when roles become available.
- Check out this Loom video for more details!
- We’re looking for highly experienced software engineer (SR+) to help evaluate the quality of interactions with modern coding agents such as OpenAI Codex and Claude Code.
- This is not a traditional engineering role.
- You won’t be writing production code. You’ll be evaluating something harder: whether the model thinks like a great engineer.
- You will assess how AI coding agents behave in real-world scenarios — focusing on:
- Whether the response makes sense
- Whether the preamble and reasoning are useful
- Whether the output reflects strong engineering judgment
- Whether the interaction feels right to an experienced developer
- This role is about engineering taste — not syntax correctness.
- Evaluate AI-generated coding interactions end-to-end
- Judge whether outputs are: Useful
- Correct (at a high level)
- Aligned with how a strong engineer would think
- Assess the quality of explanations and reasoning , not just code
- Distinguish between different levels of response quality (e.g. what makes something a 2 vs 4 )
- Provide clear, opinionated feedback on: What worked
- What didn’t
- What felt “off” or misleading
- Help define what great looks like when interacting with tools like Cursor
- We’re specifically looking for engineers who can answer questions like:
- Does this feel like something a strong engineer would actually say?
- Is this explanation helpful, or just technically correct?
- Is the model guiding the user well, or just dumping output?
- Would this interaction build or erode trust?
- You should be comfortable making subjective but rigorous judgments .
- US and Canada up to $200/hr
- EU and Latam up to $150/hr
- Other locations up to $100/hr
- Hours: ~10–20 hours/week
- Duration: Ongoing — project-based
- Process: Take-home evaluation exercise
- One behavioral interview
