Job Description
Role Overview
One of our clients is hiring experienced Software Engineers to support high-impact research collaborations with leading AI labs. In this Software Engineer, Code Quality Assurance role, you will contribute to building evaluation datasets designed to assess AI reasoning, explanation quality, and technical judgment in coding-related interactions.
This opportunity is ideal for engineers who enjoy thinking critically about code, articulating technical reasoning clearly, and shaping how AI systems understand software development workflows.
About the Project
The project focuses on code-based question-and-answer datasets that evaluate natural-language reasoning and technical explanation quality — rather than simply executable correctness. Tasks are structured as realistic, chat-style developer prompts that include all relevant context inline, such as:
- Code snippets
- Error messages
- Logs
- Configuration files
- Feature requirements
The goal is to simulate authentic developer interactions and evaluate how well AI systems reason through them.
Key Responsibilities
- Craft realistic developer prompts across categories such as: Code review, Debugging, Error diagnosis, Configuration issues, Refactoring and design trade-offs
- Source and adapt content from real pull requests to create authentic technical scenarios
- Write clear, technically accurate model responses that demonstrate strong reasoning and explanation quality
- Ensure responses reflect sound engineering judgment and best practices
Ideal Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience in software engineering, technical research, or technical education/content development
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (advanced degree preferred)
- Strong proficiency in one or more languages such as Python, JavaScript, Java, or C++
- Hands-on experience with debugging, testing, and code validation
- Strong technical writing skills and attention to detail
- Ability to clearly articulate trade-offs, assumptions, and reasoning
