Software Engineer

• Review teammates’ pull requests against our engineering guidelines and help keep the codebase consistent.

What you bring

• 5+ years building and operating production backend systems, with ownership of at least one service from design through on-call.

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

• Strong Python and experience with Django (or a similar framework), PostgreSQL, and a task queue such as Celery. What matters most is having run a real system, not knowing a particular framework.

• Hands-on experience in LLM evaluation, beyond calling a model API. You understand how a benchmark task is built, how an agent trial is scored, and how results are aggregated and compared. Experience with Harbor, Terminal-Bench, SWE-bench, Inspect, or a similar harness is a strong plus.

• Judgment about task quality. You can spot ambiguous instructions, weak or gameable verifiers, leaked answers, and checks that pass for the wrong reason.

• Good tradeoffs. You reach for the smallest design that solves the problem, extend what already exists before adding something new, and can explain what you chose not to build.

• Ownership. You take a fuzzy request, find the relevant code, ask questions only when the answer changes the design, and finish the job, including migrations, tests, and edge cases users will hit.

• Quick adoption of team conventions. You read the written guidelines and your first pull requests already match them in naming, structure, tests, and error handling.

• Comfort with a TypeScript and React frontend when a change is visible there. You don’t need to be a frontend specialist.

• Clear writing. Your pull request descriptions and design notes explain why, not just what.

Nice to have

• Experience running agents in sandboxed or containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes, or cloud sandboxes such as Modal or Daytona).

• Experience with LLM-as-a-judge or rubric-based grading, and with reducing judge bias and noise.

• Familiarity with coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, or OpenHands, and with MCP.

• Experience with distributed job scheduling, concurrency limits, or database locking at scale.

• Contributions to open-source evaluation or infrastructure projects.

How we work

• Written engineering guidelines, applied consistently, with the same review bar for everyone.

• Business logic lives in services. Hot paths stay cheap. Lint and tests pass before a pull request is ready.

• The same vocabulary in the code, the API, and the UI.

• We prefer deleting code to adding it, and simple designs to clever ones.

A strong first month looks like several changes merged with light review, and one area of the system you can change confidently without a guide.
