Software Engineer, AI; Go

Before applying

This role is open to contractors in accepted locations only. Please confirm your country is on the list before applying - we’re unable to process applications from unlisted locations. List of accepted countries and locations.

This is a 1099 independent contractor role. It is not compatible with F-1 OPT, STEM OPT, or any visa status that requires W-2 employment, guaranteed hours, or employer sponsorship.

We are unable to provide offer letters or employment verification for this role.

• Compare and rank multiple code snippets, explaining which is best and why.
• Repair and refactor AI-generated code for correctness, efficiency, and style.
• Inject feedback (ratings, edits, test results) into the RLHF pipeline and keep it running smoothly.

End result: the model learns to propose, critique, and improve code the way you do.

RLHF in one line:
Generate code -> expert engineers rank, edit, and justify -> convert that feedback into reward signals -> reinforcement learning tunes the model toward code you would actually ship.

• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience in Go (constraint programming experience is a bonus, but not required).
• Strong code-review instincts - you can spot logic errors, performance traps, and security issues quickly.
• Extreme attention to detail and excellent written communication skills. Much of this role involves explaining why one approach is better than another. This cannot be overstated.
• Comfortable reading documentation and language specs, and able to work well in an asynchronous, low-oversight environment.

Identity verification:
Applicants will be required to verify their identity and confirm they have valid documentation to work as an independent contractor in their country of residence.

• No prior RLHF or AI training experience.

• Location: Fully remote - work from anywhere on the accepted locations list.
• Compensation: $30-70/hr based on location and seniority.
  
  Note:
  
  the majority of projects run at around $30/hr - higher rates apply to senior profiles and specific project types.
• Hours: Minimum 15 hrs/week, up to 40+ hrs/week available - hours vary by project and are not guaranteed week to week.
• Engagement: 1099 independent contractor.
• Payment: Weekly via Pay Pal or Stripe.

Hours are project-dependent and can vary week to week. We recommend keeping other work options open alongside this engagement rather than relying on it as your sole source of income.
