Overview
Turing seeks experienced engineers to build and curate training datasets for large language models. You will write and review code in Python and JavaScript across backend and frontend stacks, with additional work in C/C++, Java, Rust, and Go. The role centers on evaluating model-generated code for efficiency, scalability, and reliability. Work is flexible, remote, and requires a minimum of 10 hours per week. Candidates must reside in the United States.
What You'll Do7
- Create high-quality code examples and solutions for LLM training and benchmarking.
- Review and correct AI-generated code across backend and frontend codebases.
- Develop agents that automatically check code quality and flag error patterns.
- Build verification mechanisms to confirm correctness of software engineering solutions.
- Assess model performance on stages like prototyping, API design, and production deployment.
- Collaborate with researchers and cross-functional teams to improve AI coding solutions.
- Write structured rationales for code evaluations and model behavior.
Requirements6
- 3+ years of software engineering experience.
- Strong full-stack skills with Python and JavaScript (React, Node.js).
- Track record of deploying production software using modern languages and tools.
- Deep knowledge of software architecture, design, debugging, and code review.
- Excellent written and verbal communication for clear evaluation write-ups.
- Must be based in the United States.
Preferred Qualifications2
- Experience at frontier AI companies such as OpenAI, NVIDIA, Databricks, Palantir, or Snowflake.
- Degree from top computer science programs like Stanford, MIT, Carnegie Mellon, UC Berkeley, or Georgia Tech.
Who Should Apply
Engineers with at least 3 years of full-stack experience in Python and JavaScript who have shipped production systems. The role suits someone who enjoys reviewing code, spotting errors, and writing clear evaluations. Background at a frontier AI lab or a top CS program is a plus but not required.
