Check it out here: Loom Video Overview Join our expert annotation team to create training data for the world's most advanced AI models. No previous AI experience is necessary. You'll get your foot in the door with one of the most prominent players in the AI/LLM space today. We're primarily seeking JavaScript/React developers with 3+ years of experience to train large AI language models, helping cutting-edge generative AI models write better frontend code. Projects typically include discrete, highly variable problems that involve engaging with these models as they learn to code. We currently have 200+ roles open! What Will I Be Doing? Evaluating the quality of AI-generated code, including human-readable summaries of your rationale. Building and evaluating React components, hooks, and modern JavaScript solutions. Solving coding problems and writing functional and efficient JavaScript/React code. Writing robust test cases to confirm code works efficiently and effectively. Creating instructions to help others and reviewing code before it goes into the model.

Pay Rates Compensation rates vary based on location and experience and you can find them in this document. The following rates are starting points and may be subject to change. Expectations are 15+ hours per week; however, there is no upper limit. You can work as much as you want and will be paid weekly per hour of work done on the platform. Contract Length This is a long-term contract with no end date. We expect to have work for the next 2 years. You can end the contract at any time, but we hope you will commit to 12 months of work. Flexible Schedules Developers can set their own hours—ideal candidates will be interested in spending 40 hours a week. You will be with teams, so strong performers will adapt to the urgency of projects and stay engaged, but we are incredibly flexible on working hours. You can take a 3-hour lunch with no problem. Instead of tracking your hours, you are paid according to time spent on the platform, calculated in the coding exercises. Interview Process Apply using this Ashby form. If you seem like a good fit, we'll send an async RLHF code review that will take 35 minutes and must be finished within 72 hours of us sending it. You'll receive credentials to the RLHF platform. We'll then set up a group call to answer any further questions about onboarding with the company. You'll perform a simulated production-level task (RLHF task) on the platform. This will be your final interview, which will ultimately determine your employment and leveling. Successful completion of this process provides you with an opportunity to work on projects as they become available. Tech Stack Priorities The current priority for this team is frontend engineers who are well versed in JavaScript, React, and modern web development frameworks and libraries. Required Qualifications 3+ years of experience in a software engineering/software development role. Strong proficiency with JavaScript/React and frontend development. Complete fluency in the English language. Ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and engagingly. Excellent attention to detail and ability to maintain consistency in writing.
