• Familiar with LLM architectures, evaluation methodologies, and training pipelines.
• Precise and structured in your written communication — you explain your reasoning, not just your conclusions.
• Comfortable working independently and asynchronously in a remote environment.

Mansioni

• Author complex, high-fidelity reasoning traces documenting how an LLM should plan, use tools, and decide step by step.
• Decompose sophisticated technical tasks into clear, logical, well-structured decision paths.
• Design data strategies reflecting real-world problem solving across advanced ML scenarios.
• Review and mentor the quality of structured traces to ensure rigorous planning and tool-use documentation.
• Contribute directly to training pipelines for frontier AI models used by leading research labs.

Nice to Have

• Prior experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or AI training data workflows
• Top-tier Kaggle competition results (Grandmaster or Master level) — a strong signal of model performance intuition and feature engineering depth
• Hands-on experience with RLHF, chain-of-thought prompting, or tool-augmented LLM evaluation
• Background in AI safety, alignment research, or reasoning benchmarks

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI projects alongside world-leading research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — structure your hours around your life, not the other way around
• Freelance autonomy with the intellectual depth of genuinely meaningful, senior-level work
• Rare opportunity to influence how the next generation of AI systems actually think and reason
