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.
What this role actually is
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. Syntax correctness is the easy part.
What you'll be doing
- Evaluate AI-generated coding interactions end to end
- Judge whether outputs are useful, correct at a high level, and aligned with how a strong engineer would think
- Assess the quality of explanations and reasoning, not just the code
- Distinguish between levels of response quality (what makes something a 2 vs a 4)
