Participation isproject-based, not permanent employment. What This Opportunity Involves You'll create challenging coding test cases that push AI coding systems to their limits: • Review and refine realistic coding tasks based on provided production codebases with realistic scope, requirements and information sources • Write comprehensive functional tests that validate actual end-to-end behavior and edge-cases, not just superficial checks • Craft "fair but hard" challenges where the AI has all the context it needs, but has to work for it (information scattered across files and external sources, complex reasoning required) • Analyze AI failures to understand what the model struggles with vs. what it masters • Iterate based on feedback from expert QA reviewers who score your work on 7 quality criteria What We Look For This opportunity is a good fit for experienced developers, software engineers, and/or test automation specialists open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have: • Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or related fields • 5+ years in software development, primarily Python (pytest, async/await, subprocess, file operations) • Background in Full-Stack development, with an equal focus on building React-based interfaces and robust Back-end systems • Experience writing tests (functional, integration - not just running them) • Docker containers (running evaluations locally in containers) • CI/CD understanding (GitHub Actions as a user: triggers, labels, reading results) • English proficiency - B2 How It Works Apply → Pass qualification(s) → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get paid Effort estimate Tasks for this project are estimated to take 20 hours to complete, depending on complexity.
