About The Role

We are seeking experienced software engineers at the tech lead level to join our team working on a pioneering project involving large language models (LLMs) and software engineering datasets. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the creation of verifiable software engineering tasks derived from public repository histories, utilizing synthetic approaches with human-in-the-loop methodologies. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software development, particularly with high-quality open-source repositories, and will be instrumental in automating development environments, triaging issues, and evaluating code coverage and quality. This position is perfect for professionals eager to combine practical software engineering expertise with AI research, helping shape the future of AI-assisted software development.

Qualifications

The ideal candidate will possess a minimum of three years of overall experience in software engineering, with a proven track record in JavaScript and TypeScript development. Proficiency with version control systems such as Git, containerization tools like Docker, and experience setting up and automating software pipelines are essential. Candidates should demonstrate the ability to understand and navigate complex codebases, run, modify, and test real-world projects locally, and contribute to open-source initiatives. Experience in AI or LLM research is a plus, along with familiarity with software testing and automation tools. Strong problem-solving skills, excellent communication, and the ability to work collaboratively in a remote environment are also required.

Responsibilities

• Analyze and triage GitHub issues across trending open-source libraries to identify challenging tasks for LLMs.
• Set up, configure, and maintain development environments, including Dockerization and environment automation.
• Evaluate unit test coverage and assess code quality to ensure datasets are reliable and comprehensive.
• Modify, run, and debug codebases locally to evaluate LLM performance in bug-fixing and code understanding scenarios.
• Collaborate closely with research teams to design and select repositories and issues that push the boundaries of current AI capabilities.
• Lead and mentor junior engineers, fostering a collaborative team environment and ensuring project milestones are met.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of workflows, tools, and best practices for dataset creation and evaluation.
