The Remote Backend Engineer will create cutting-edge datasets for training and advancing large language models, collaborating closely with researchers and cross-functional teams to enhance AI-driven coding solutions.
Responsibilities
- Work on AI model training initiatives by curating code examples, building solutions, and correcting code across both Python and JavaScript (React, Node.js), with additional work in C/C++, Java, Rust, and Go
- Evaluate and refine AI-generated code across backend and frontend contexts to ensure that it is efficient, scalable, and reliable
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance AI-driven coding solutions against industry performance benchmarks
- Build agents that can verify the quality of the code and identify error patterns across full-stack applications
- Hypothesize on steps in the software engineering cycle (prototyping, architecture design, API design, production implementation, launch, experiments, monitoring, operational maintenance) and evaluate model capabilities on them
- Design verification mechanisms that can automatically verify a solution to a software engineering task
Skills
- Several years of software engineering experience (3 years or more)
- Strong expertise in building full-stack applications using Python and JavaScript (React, Node.js), with the ability to work across backend and frontend codebases
- Experience deploying scalable, production-grade software using modern languages and tools
- Deep understanding of software architecture, design, development, debugging, and code quality/review assessment
- Excellent oral and written communication skills for clear, structured evaluation rationales
- Engineers who have worked at the frontier of AI — at companies like OpenAI, NVIDIA, Databricks, Palantir, Snowflake, or similar organizations pushing the boundaries of intelligent systems
- Graduates from top computer science programs such as Stanford, MIT, Carnegie Mellon, UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, and comparable institutions
Benefits
- Flexible engagement, minimum 10 hrs/week, up to 40 hrs/week
