You'll apply your day-to-day engineering judgment to show where AI gets code, reasoning and technical instructions right, and where it falls short.</p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>What you’ll do</strong></span></p> <p><strong>Depending on the project, you may:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Design realistic, multi-step coding and technical tasks that test an AI model's ability to reason, write code and follow precise instructions.</li> <li>Build tasks around realistic workspace materials such as codebases, technical specs, architecture docs and datasets.</li> <li>Evaluate AI-generated code and technical content for correctness, efficiency, clarity and alignment with real-world engineering practice.</li> <li>Grade model outputs against rubrics and ground-truth answers, and write clear, structured feedback.</li> <li>Help improve how AI understands programming, system design, data workflows and engineering best practices.</li> <li>Work independently and asynchronously, meet deadlines, and collaborate with the Patronus team to keep quality high.</li> <li>Test and refine content to reflect real-world complexity.</li> <li>Review other contributors’ work for accuracy, clarity, and practical relevance.</li> <li>Incorporate feedback promptly and flag gaps or unclear guidance.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>What we’re looking for</strong></span></p> <ul> <li>2+ years of professional experience in software engineering, data science or analytics.</li> <li>Experience with system design, data pipelines, ML or LLM-based applications.</li> <li>Prior work in code review, technical writing, AI training or model evaluation.</li> <li>Strong coding skills in at least one major language, such as Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, TypeScript or Go.</li> <li>Experience building, reviewing and debugging production-grade code.</li> <li>Ability to follow detailed technical guidelines, work independently, respond to feedback, and meet deadlines.</li> <li>Excellent written communication and close attention to detail.</li> <li>A bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Our standards</strong></span></p> <ul> <li>All tasks and solutions must be human-authored. LLM-generated content is not permitted.</li> <li>Tasks must be original and non-searchable.</li> <li>Accurate, carefully checked contributions.</li> <li>Quality over volume.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Pay:</strong> $30–$100 per hour and some tasks would have a flat rate</p> <p><strong>Location:</strong> Remote (India)</p> <p><strong>Type:</strong> Hourly, project/task-based contract (not a full-time role)</p> <p><strong>Commitment:</strong> Flexible, typically 15–20 hours per week; can be done alongside a full-time job</p> <p> </p> <p>Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Placement depends on project needs and assessment results.</p><div
