Job description

We're looking for experienced software engineers to build AI coding tasks from a codebase they know well. US$1,000 per task, and you can do as many tasks as you want.You turn a real change from a repository you know into a task that today's best AI coding models struggle with: hard for the models, but fair for a skilled engineer. Your tasks are used to measure and train AI coding models.Remote, any location. US$1,000 per task that passes review. Minimum of one task a week, about 10 hours a week.**How it works**1. **Apply.** Complete a short screener interview and upload your resume.2. **Propose.** Once you're selected, pick a change from a repository you know and submit a short proposal.

Most tasks take more than one round.7. **Next task.** Once your task is accepted, start another.**Requirements*** 2+ years of professional software engineering* Code merged into a public open-source repository, ideally one you know well.
