Overview
You’ll join an expert annotation team to create training data for for the worlds most advanced AI models. No previous AI experience is necessary. You’ll get your foot in the door with one of the biggest players in the AI/LLM space today. We are seeking software engineers with 3+ years of experience to train AI large language models, helping cutting-edge generative AI models write better code. Projects typically include discrete, highly variable problems that involve engaging with these models as they learn to code. We currently have 200+ roles open!

What Will I Be Doing?

Evaluating the quality of AI-generated code, including human-readable summaries of your rationale
Solve coding problems, writing functional and efficient code
Writing robust test cases to confirm code works efficiently and effectively
We asked the technical project manager to go into even more detail and this is how he answered: It is solving coding challenges, creating instructions to help others, reviewing the code before it goes into the model, and there’s a ton of variety in the projects. We have everything from “which piece of C++ code is better?” to “make a full mobile application using this chatbot, and improve the chatbot’s responses afterwards to make it faster”

Pay Rates

US Based – 9,240 USD /month (55 USD /hr)
Outside US – 6,888 USD /month (41 USD /hr)  
These are monthly estimates based on a 40 hour work week which is expected. You’ll be paid on a weekly basis. These rates are not negotiable.

Contract Length

Long term, there is no end date. They expect to have work for the next 2 years.
You can end the contract at any time. Our hope is that you would commit to 12 months of work, but if you start and it’s not a fit for you, we totally understand.  

Flexible Schedules

Developers can set their own hours – ideal candidates will be interested in spending 40 hours a week. They will be with teams, so strong performers will adapt to the urgency of projects and stay engaged, but incredibly flexible on working hours. 
Take a 3 hour lunch, no problem. You are paid according to time spent on the platform, which is calculated in the coding exercises, as opposed to tracking your own hours.  

Interview Process

1. Apply using this Lever form
2. If you look like a good fit, we’ll send an async video interview (4 minutes) with two questions.
3. You’ll perform a 30 – 60 minute live technical interview that is leetcode focused with the G2i technical interview team. If you solidly pass, you’ll get the job. We are performing these interviews on behalf of the company. If you struggle but pass, the company may choose to re-interview you before offering you the role.

5. Each Wednesday, we work with the company to do a 30 min onboarding and a 5 hour paid session learning how to train AI models. You’ll be able to start full time the following day.

Tech Stack Priorities

From the technical program manager: “The best candidates will have experience with a variety of coding languages. Everyone has specializations and mobile dev and backend are our priorities for now — but all things being equal, given the project nature of our work a tendency towards full/stack generalists will be better. ”
