- evaluate code
- recording short video explanations
Preferred
- prompt design or
- evaluation workflows
- Claude
- Code
Responsibilities
- You will assess how AI coding agents behave in real-world scenarios, focusing on:
- Whether the response makes sense
- Whether the preamble and reasoning are useful
- Whether the output reflects strong engineering judgment
- Whether the interaction feels right to an experienced developer
Evaluate AI-generated coding interactions end to end
- Judge whether outputs are useful, correct at a high level, and aligned with how a strong engineer would think
- Assess the quality of explanations and reasoning, not just the code
- Distinguish between levels of response quality (what makes something a 2 vs a 4)
- Give clear, opinionated feedback in writing on what worked, what didn't, and what felt off or misleading
- Help define what great looks like when working with tools like Cursor, Codex and Claude Code
Requirements
- Senior, Staff or Principal-level engineer (or equivalent experience)
- Strong background in TypeScript/JavaScript or Python
- Hands-on experience with at least one of OpenAI Codex, Claude Code or Cursor
Deep familiarity with modern AI-assisted dev workflows
- Able to evaluate code without executing it or reviewing every line
- Strong written and spoken English (B2 or above). You'll be writing detailed feedback and recording short video explanations, so this is a hard requirement
- Comfortable giving direct, opinionated feedback
- High bar for what good engineering looks like
Preferred
- Prior exposure to prompt design or evaluation workflows
- Experience mentoring senior engineers or defining engineering standards

What this role actually is
This role is about engineering taste. Syntax correctness is the easy part.
What we mean by "taste"
We're looking for engineers who can answer questions like
Does this feel like something a strong engineer would actually say?
Is this explanation helpful, or just technically correct?
Is the model guiding the user well, or just dumping output?
Would this interaction build or erode trust?
You should be comfortable making subjective but rigorous judgments, and explaining them clearly.
Engagement details
- Start: as soon as you clear the take-home and a project has an open seat
- Process: one take-home evaluation exercise with a recorded Loom walkthrough. No interview
