Descrizione del lavoro

Role overview

Contribute senior Python engineering expertise to the training and evaluation of AI systems. Work is task based: assess generated code and technical explanations, test implementations, and provide structured feedback that helps improve how models handle software engineering problems.

Responsibilities

• Check AI-generated Python for correctness, readability, maintainability, and alignment with established practices.
• Review explanations of algorithmic solutions and identify gaps or errors in the reasoning.
• Run generated scripts to confirm their behavior, outputs, and performance.
• Flag inefficient approaches, outdated syntax, nonexistent library features, security issues, and potential memory leaks.
• Give clear feedback on model responses involving backend design, data pipelines, and API development.
• Complete an initial skills assessment as part of joining the expert pool.

Requirements

• A bachelor’s degree or higher in computer science, software engineering, or a closely related technical field.
• Professional experience as a senior software engineer or developer specializing in Python.
• Ability to solve medium to hard algorithmic problems independently in Python.
• Strong knowledge of Python internals and features, including the GIL, decorators, generators, memory management, and asynchronous programming.
• High standards for modular, readable code and familiarity with modern Python conventions.
• Careful review skills, including the ability to spot subtle logic, security, and resource-management problems.
• Experience with Python 3, type hints, and at least one of Django, FastAPI, or Flask; familiarity with REST APIs, GraphQL, and testing tools such as pytest or unittest is relevant.

Benefits and work setup

This is paid, flexible task work, with rates reported as up to $50 per hour depending on skills and experience. Some assignments require an uninterrupted hour, although shorter tasks may also be available. Work can be done remotely; participation follows a short assessment and successful qualification.
