Job Description

We're looking for experienced software engineers to build AI coding tasks from a codebase they know well. US$1,000 per task, and you can do as many tasks as you want.

You turn a real change from a repository you know into a task that today's best AI coding models struggle with: hard for the models, but fair for a skilled engineer. Your tasks are used to measure and train AI coding models.

Remote, any location. US$1,000 per task that passes review. Minimum of one task a week, about 10 hours a week.

How it works

  • �� Apply. Complete a short screener interview and upload your resume.
  • �� Propose. Once you're selected, pick a change from a repository you know and submit a short proposal. We approve it or suggest a better candidate.
  • �� Build. In our platform, set up the repository as it was before the change, then write the brief, the correct solution and the grading checks.
  • �� Stress-test. Try lazy, incorrect and shortcut solutions and make sure your checks catch them.
  • �� Model testing. Run your task against leading AI models until strong models often fail but a skilled engineer can clearly solve it.
  • �� Review. A reviewer checks your task and you revise it. Most tasks take more than one round.
  • �� Next task. Once your task is accepted, start another.

Requirements

  • �� 2+ years of professional software engineering
  • �� Code merged into a public open-source repository, ideally one you know well. A private codebase you own may also qualify (not employer or client code)
  • �� Strong in at least one of Python, TypeScript, Go, Rust, Java or C++
  • �� Solid with Docker, Linux, Git and automated testing
  • �� Regular use of an AI coding tool
  • �� Experience writing tests, rubrics or evaluation criteria, ideally for AI models
  • �� You can explain a change clearly and concisely, in your own words
  • �� At least 10 hours a week, starting now
  • �� A secure personal or work computer (no public or shared machines)

Nice to have

  • �� Deep expertise in one area, such as databases, compilers, distributed systems, security or infrastructure
  • �� Experience building agent tasks or RL environments

Terms

  • �� US$1,000 for each task that passes our quality review, paid directly to you
  • �� Once your proposal is qualified, you sign Askable's contract and accept its terms
  • �� The work is used for AI training. The change and your solution must be your own, and you must be free to license them to us
  • �� Don't publish the work anywhere: no public pull request or public fork
