Overview
We are building a benchmark that tests how well AI agents handle real expert work in a terminal. We are hiring ML inference and serving experts to turn real, paid tasks from their jobs into expert-level Terminal-Bench challenges. Each task includes the environment, a working solution, and an automated check that proves the result is correct.
***THIS IS A TASK BASED COMPENSATION MODEL. PLEASE CHECK THE APPLICATION QUESTIONS FOR MORE DETAILS.***
Responsibilities
- Design expert-level Terminal-Bench tasks that turn real, paid ML inference work from your own experience into challenges an AI agent must solve end to end.
- Define the files, systems and environments each task runs on, such as model serving with streaming, so the challenge is realistic, reproducible and command-line solvable.
- Write a working reference solution for every task and verify it runs end to end, sized for about 60 to 75 minutes of expert effort.
- Build automated checks that objectively prove a result is correct, including cases where ML outputs go wrong silently, such as numerical drift or metric bugs.
- Package tasks with Docker and Git so they are reproducible, and document the systems, tools, data and rules involved so reviewers can validate difficulty.
- Iterate on tasks based on reviewer feedback and agent test runs, adjusting difficulty and fixing ambiguities so each task stays expert-level, fair and objectively gradable.
Skills/Experience
- 3+ years doing ML inference or serving work hands-on (not only studying, selling or managing it), or a PhD plus active research in the subfield
- Did this work in the last 3 years and can name the systems, tools, data and rules used
- Trained, served or evaluated models at real scale (multi-GPU or production serving), not only notebooks or API calls
