- Work with Python, JavaScript, ReactJS, C/C++, Java, Rust, and Go
- Maintain strong standards for correctness and maintainability
AI-Generated Code Evaluation
- Evaluate AI-generated code for technical correctness
- Assess solutions for efficiency, scalability, and reliability
- Identify implementation weaknesses and recurring error patterns
- Review code quality against professional engineering standards
- Provide structured rationales supporting evaluation decisions
Verification & Automated Assessment
- Build agents that assess code quality
- Design mechanisms for automatically verifying software solutions
- Identify recurring model-generated coding errors
- Develop reliable checks for engineering tasks
- Support reproducible evaluation across repeated assignments
Software Engineering Lifecycle Evaluation
- Evaluate model capabilities across the software-development lifecycle
- Assess reasoning around prototyping and architecture design
- Review API design and production implementation decisions
- Evaluate launch, experimentation, monitoring, and maintenance scenarios
- Identify areas where models struggle with real-world engineering workflows
Research & Benchmark Collaboration
- Collaborate with research and cross-functional technical teams
- Contribute to datasets used for training and benchmarking
- Help define engineering evaluation strategies
- Compare model performance against professional engineering expectations
- Support iterative improvements to coding-focused evaluation systems
