Systems Engineer (Coding Agent Experience)

About The Role

Contributors help evaluate and improve frontier AI coding models through structured technical assessments. The work focuses on realistic systems engineering workflows and model evaluation. Spots are limited and filling quickly on a first come, first serve basis.

Role Responsibilities

• Use frontier AI coding agents to complete and evaluate complex engineering tasks
• Review model-generated code, architecture decisions, and systems implementations
• Identify bugs, edge cases, performance bottlenecks, and failure modes
• Compare outputs from multiple frontier models and assess their strengths and weaknesses
• Apply professional engineering judgment to realistic systems engineering scenarios

Time Commitment

Sprint based project that runs in 12-24 hour stretches based on client requirement

Who Should Apply

• 2+ years of professional systems engineering experience
• Experience with distributed systems, networking, operating systems, storage systems, infrastructure software, or database internals
• Regular use of AI coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, or similar tools
• Ability to evaluate model-generated systems designs and implementations
• Experience building highly scalable and performance-critical systems is preferred
