Who This Is For

This opportunity is best suited for experienced software engineers who are comfortable navigating unfamiliar codebases. We welcome backend developers, full-stack engineers, DevOps specialists, and systems engineers. Candidates must be highly proficient with command-line tools and writing clean, deterministic tests.

What You'll Do
  • Design self-contained software-engineering problems for AI agents to solve.

  • Build and configure development environments using Docker.

  • Write automated, deterministic tests to reliably grade AI performance.

  • Create accurate reference solutions for complex coding challenges.
