Turing is one of the worlds fastest-growing AI companies, pushing the boundaries of AI-assisted software development. Our mission is to empower the next generation of AI systems to reason about and work with real-world software repositories. Youll be working at the intersection of software engineering, open-source ecosystems, and frontier AI.

Project Overview

We're building high-quality evaluation and training datasets to improve how Large Language Models (LLMs) interact with realistic software engineering tasks. You will have the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects, from helping models traverse complex code bases to building agents that improve model performance.

What Does a Typical Day Look Like?

• Work across multiple projects to improve LLM performance on code, including sample projects.
• Lead and deliver end-to-end agent use cases such as home automation agents, coding copilots, or creative design assistants.
• Collaborate with the team to identify edge cases and ambiguities in model behavior.
• Review and compare 34 model-generated code responses per task using a structured ranking system.
• Evaluate code diffs for correctness, quality, style, and efficiency, providing clear rationales for each ranking decision.

Required Skills

• Several years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years at a top-tier product company (e.g., Google, Stripe, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Netflix, Microsoft, Datadog, Dropbox, Shopify, PayPal, IBM Research).
• Strong expertise in building full-stack applications and deploying scalable, production-grade software using modern languages and tools.
• Deep understanding of software architecture, design, development, debugging, and code review assessment.
• Proven ability to review code diffs and evaluate correctness, maintainability, and efficiency.
• Excellent communication skills for clear, structured evaluation rationales.
• Flexible engagement: minimum 10 hrs/week, up to 40 hrs/week (partial PST overlap required).
• Type: Contractor (no medical/paid leave).
• Duration: 1 month (starting next week), with potential extensions based on performance and fit.
• Rates: $50$150/hour, depending on experience and skill level.
