This opportunity is ideal for software engineers who enjoy reviewing code, solving technical problems, and applying strong engineering judgment to ensure high-quality, production-ready outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Create realistic software engineering tasks based on real-world development workflows, including technical requirements, supporting documentation, test cases, and code repositories.

• Evaluate AI-generated code solutions against professional engineering standards for correctness, maintainability, performance, and reliability.

• Compare outputs from different AI systems using identical requirements and environments, documenting relative strengths and areas for improvement.

• Develop test plans, evaluation rubrics, and success criteria that clearly define expected functionality, coding standards, and edge-case handling.

• Review code changes, implementation decisions, automated tests, and design approaches to verify technical quality and adherence to requirements.

• Identify and document issues such as:

• Missed edge cases

• Incorrect or incomplete implementations

• Fragile code changes

• Ineffective testing strategies

• Requirements misinterpretation

• Unsupported assumptions or fabricated outputs

• Collaborate with engineers and reviewers to refine evaluation tasks, improve assessment methodologies, and maintain quality standards across projects.

• Contribute technical expertise across a variety of technologies, platforms, and software development environments.

• Swift

• Kotlin

• Rust

• Strong understanding of software engineering principles, debugging techniques, testing methodologies, and version control systems.

• Ability to quickly understand unfamiliar codebases and evaluate implementation quality.

• Experience using tools such as Git, testing frameworks, command-line interfaces, and debugging tools.

• Excellent written communication skills with the ability to explain technical findings clearly and objectively.

• Professional-level English proficiency.

Preferred

• Two or more years of software development experience in a professional, academic, freelance, or open-source setting.

• Familiarity with containerization, CI/CD pipelines, and modern development workflows.

• Experience using AI-powered coding assistants or large language model (LLM) tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, or similar technologies.

• Bachelor's degree (completed or in progress) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

What Success Looks Like

• Consistently identifies technical issues, risks, and implementation gaps with supporting evidence.

• Demonstrates sound engineering judgment when evaluating code quality and software behavior.

• Produces clear, actionable feedback that improves the quality of AI-generated software outputs.

• Applies best practices in testing, maintainability, performance, and software design.

• Delivers objective and well-documented evaluations across multiple technologies and domains.
