We are looking for highly skilled Open-Source Software Engineers to contribute to an AI training project involving software development, repository exploration, debugging, system architecture, and code evaluation.
The work involves creating, solving, reviewing, and validating challenging software-engineering tasks across front-end and back-end systems and helping with translating full coding builds from one particular language into another.
We are particularly interested in engineers who own or maintain open-source repositories or have made meaningful contributions to established projects. Contributions should demonstrate real engineering ability, not only documentation updates, dependency bumps, formatting changes, or minor typo corrections.
Candidates should be prepared to discuss specific repositories, pull requests, issues, and code they personally authored.
Relevant languages may include TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, Rust, C++, C#, Ruby, PHP, or other languages used in substantial open-source projects.
Compensation is output-based. Experts are paid per task that meets the project specifications. The time required to complete each task may vary depending on the expert’s experience and workflow.
Minimum submission requirements apply. Experts must submit a minimum number of tasks per week.
We typically fill roles within 48 hours and are looking for experts who are ready to begin immediately. If selected, you will be expected to start your first tasks within 24–48 hours of completing onboarding.
