Python Engineer Coding Agent Evaluation

LiegeRemote30 hours/week<3months

A technology company connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems.

  • Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.
  • We're building a dataset to evaluate AI coding agents – how well a model handles real-world developer tasks.
  • Tasks for this project are estimated to take 30 hours to complete, depending on complexity. This is an estimate and not a schedule requirement; you choose when and how to work.
  • Tasks must be submitted by the deadline and meet the listed acceptance criteria to be accepted.
  • Paid per accepted task. Your rate depends on the qualification tier you reach and how efficiently you complete tasks – up to the equivalent of $200/hr.

What you do

  • You'll create challenging tasks and evaluation criteria within realistic simulated environments:
  • Build realistic developer environments – a virtual company with codebase, infrastructure, and context (tickets, docs, conversations) that forms a believable development history.
  • Design tasks from intermediate states of these environments – craft the prompt, define what 'solved' means, and ensure the task is solvable by an AI agent.
  • Write tests that verify agent solutions – accept all valid approaches and reject incorrect ones, neither too strict nor too lenient.
  • Iterate on tasks and tests based on QA feedback – review agent solutions, analyze failures, and refine until the evaluation is fair and robust.
  • This is NOT data labeling, NOT prompt engineering, NOT writing code from scratch – the agent writes most of the code; you guide and evaluate.

What they ask

  • 8+ years in software development.
  • Core stack: Python (FastAPI), JavaScript/TypeScript (React), Docker, Postgres, Kafka, Redis.
  • Experience writing tests (functional, integration).
  • English proficiency: B2+.

Profile

  • Frontier models are already good at coding. Creating a task that genuinely challenges the best models is non-trivial.
  • You need to deeply understand where models fail and what scenarios reveal the difference between a good and a bad solution.
  • Tasks have many valid solutions – writing tests that accept all correct solutions and reject incorrect ones is harder than it sounds.

Practical

  • Flexible Work Hours: you choose when and how to work.
  • Fully remote role.
