Remote Subsurface & Reservoir Code QA Engineer

AuraOne; United States; On-site; USD 93,676 - 126,739; Full time

Job summary

AuraOne is seeking a Subsurface & Reservoir Engineer reviewer who will assess generated code, reproduce outputs, and draft targeted unit tests. You will grade solutions for correctness, clarity, and edge-case handling, writing concise rationale to explain your judgments.

The role emphasizes async availability (10+ hours/week) and experience with code-review or technical-interview grading. Remote work in the US is allowed as a contractor.

Qualifications

• Strong day-job engineering experience — you can read, run, and debug unfamiliar code for Subsurface & Reservoir Engineer work.
• Comfort writing concise unit tests that capture a single failure mode.
• Familiarity with at least one of: pytest, Jest, JUnit, Go test, RSpec, or equivalent.
• Clear written reasoning — your review note has to convince another senior engineer.
• Reliable async availability for at least 10 hours per week.
• Prior code-review or technical-interview-grading experience is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Run and reproduce candidate code outputs in a sandboxed environment for Subsurface & Reservoir Engineer assignments.
• Grade subsurface reservoir engineer engineering review solutions for correctness, complexity, idiomatic style, and edge-case handling.
• Write the smallest failing test that demonstrates a model's edge-case bug.
• Compare paired solutions and rank them with a written rationale tied to the rubric.
• Tag failure modes (compile error, runtime crash, off-by-one, security issue) with severity scores.
• Document recurring code-generation failures so the modeling team can target them.
• Calibrate against gold-standard reviews to keep inter-rater agreement above target.
