hiring experienced Software Engineers to support high-impact research collaborations with leading AI labs. Freelancers will contribute to building evaluation datasets that assess AI reasoning, explanation quality, and technical judgment in coding-related interactions. This is a unique opportunity to apply your engineering expertise toward shaping the next generation of intelligent systems. About the Project This evaluation dataset is code question and answer data. This data is designed to assess natural-language reasoning, explanation quality, and technical judgment in coding-related interactions, rather than executable correctness. Tasks are structured as chat-pasteable prompts that reflect realistic developer questions and include all necessary context inline (e.g., code snippets, error messages, logs, or requirements) Key Responsibilities Craft realistic developer prompts across multiple categories (code review, debugging, error diagnosis,...
