OpenTrain AI is the hiring and contracting organization for this remote opportunity. OpenTrain is the leading platform for finding and building careers in AI training and data labeling, helping contributors discover projects, build a professional profile, and grow a lasting portfolio in this fast-moving field.
Creating an OpenTrain account is free, and candidates can apply in minutes while showcasing relevant software engineering experience.
AI training is the human side of building artificial intelligence. Engineers and other specialists create examples, test model behavior, and review outputs so AI systems can solve real-world problems more accurately.
In this role, your software engineering expertise will help create challenging, reproducible coding tasks and reliable reference solutions for models learning to fix defects, build features, refactor systems, and improve performance.
OpenTrain is recruiting a Software Engineering AI Evaluation Specialist to create reinforcement learning environments that test AI models on complex software engineering problems. You will contribute expert code, debugging strategies, and technical reasoning that can become high-quality training data.
This is a remote, part-time contractor role expected to require approximately 15 hours per week. The listing provides an ideal hourly range of $50-$100 USD and also references output-based task submissions, so applicable compensation terms should be confirmed for the engagement.
You will turn realistic software engineering challenges into reproducible environments and golden reference solutions. The work combines hands-on development, complex debugging, technical documentation, and careful review of other contributors' submissions.
The listing identifies this opportunity as entry level, while the work requires significant hands-on programming experience and the ability to solve complex engineering problems independently. Previous AI experience is not required.
Experience delivering high-impact features from conception through completion in cross-functional projects is useful. Curiosity about AI systems and their technical challenges can also help you assess how well coding environments measure model capabilities.
AI training and data labeling are rapidly expanding areas of tech work, with contributors directly shaping how modern AI systems behave. Many projects are remote and flexible, allowing specialists to fit work around other commitments while developing relevant experience.
OpenTrain helps you build a credible AI training portfolio, discover opportunities aligned with your skills, and develop a durable career in this emerging industry.
