Remote TypeScript Software Engineer, AI

at G2i Inc.

Posted 12 hours ago | 0 applied

Description:

  • The position is for a TypeScript Software Engineer specializing in AI, specifically in code evaluation and training.
  • The role involves helping to train large-language models (LLMs) to write production-grade code across various programming languages.
  • Responsibilities include comparing and ranking multiple code snippets, explaining which is best and why.
  • The engineer will repair and refactor AI-generated code for correctness, efficiency, and style.
  • The role requires injecting feedback (ratings, edits, test results) into the RLHF pipeline to ensure it runs smoothly.
  • The end goal is for the model to learn to propose, critique, and improve code in a manner similar to the engineer's own approach.
  • The process involves generating code, having expert engineers rank and edit it, justifying their choices, and converting that feedback into reward signals for reinforcement learning.

Requirements:

  • Candidates must have 4+ years of professional software engineering experience in one or more of the following languages: Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, C++, PHP, COBOL, C, Ruby, or Rust.
  • Strong code-review instincts are essential, with the ability to quickly spot logic errors, performance traps, and security issues.
  • Extreme attention to detail and excellent written communication skills are required, as much of the role involves explaining why one approach is better than another.
  • Candidates should enjoy reading documentation and language specifications and thrive in an asynchronous, low-oversight environment.
  • No prior experience in RLHF (Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback) or AI training is necessary.
  • Deep machine learning knowledge is not required; the ability to review and critique code clearly is sufficient.

Benefits:

  • The position is fully remote, allowing candidates to work from anywhere.
  • Compensation is up to $30 per hour.
  • The role offers flexible hours, with a minimum of 15 hours per week and up to 40 hours per week available.
  • Engagement is through a 1099 contract, providing straightforward impact without unnecessary complexities.
