Job Title: Software Engineer

Job Type: Contract

Location: Remote

Job Summary: We are looking for experienced software engineers to help train and evaluate next-generation AI systems through real-world software engineering tasks. This role is best suited for developers who can reason through unfamiliar codebases, explain engineering decisions clearly, and solve practical backend, full-stack, systems, or infrastructure-related problems.

A Cybersecurity/SecOps background or exposure is highly preferred.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Work on challenging software engineering tasks across backend, full-stack, infrastructure, and systems-related projects.
  • Review, debug, improve, and explain code across different technical environments.
  • Design or evaluate practical solutions involving APIs, databases, services, integrations, testing, and deployment workflows.
  • Identify tradeoffs around scalability, maintainability, performance, reliability, security, and developer experience.
  • Communicate technical reasoning clearly in writing, including why a solution works and what alternatives were considered.
  • Collaborate with the customer's team on technical reviews, implementation decisions, and problem-solving exercises.
  • Adapt quickly to new codebases, frameworks, and technical requirements.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • 3+ years of hands-on software engineering experience.
  • Strong experience in at least one backend or full-stack engineering environment, such as Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, Java, C++, Go or Rust
  • Experience building, maintaining, or reviewing production-level applications, APIs, services, databases, or integrations.
  • Strong understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including debugging, testing, code quality, architecture, and technical tradeoffs.
  • Ability to explain complex engineering decisions clearly and objectively.
  • Comfortable reading and reasoning through unfamiliar code or technical requirements

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with cloud environments such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps workflows, containers, monitoring, or production operations.
  • Experience with frontend frameworks such as React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, or React Native.
  • Open-source contributions, public GitHub work, technical writing, or strong examples of past engineering work.
  • Experience mentoring engineers, reviewing code, or making architecture decisions.
