What you'll do

  • 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)
  • Give clear, opinionated feedback in writing on what worked, what didn't, and what felt off or misleading
  • Help define what great looks like when working with tools like Cursor, Codex and Claude Code

What we're looking for

  • Senior, Staff or Principal-level engineer (or equivalent experience)
  • Strong background in TypeScript/JavaScript or Python
  • Hands-on experience with at least one of OpenAI Codex, Claude Code or Cursor
  • Deep familiarity with modern AI-assisted dev workflows
  • Able to evaluate code without executing it or reviewing every line
  • Strong written and spoken English (B2 or above)
  • Comfortable giving direct, opinionated feedback
  • High bar for what good engineering looks like

Nice to have

  • Prior exposure to prompt design or evaluation workflows
  • Experience mentoring senior engineers or defining engineering standards
