SENIOR AI INTERACTION EVALUATOR (CODEX / CLAUDE CODE)
Full job description
SENIOR AI INTERACTION EVALUATOR (CODEX / CLAUDE CODE) Contract | $100–$200/hour | 10–20 hrs/week | Start ASAP (through early May) Check out this Loom video for more details! https://www.loom.com/share/b0d1b0bf24c44ae8b95dca84b9db60e5 We’re looking for highly experienced software engineer (SR+) to help evaluate the quality of interactions with modern coding agents such as OpenAI Codex and Claude Code. This is not a traditional engineering role. You won’t be writing production code. You’ll be evaluating something harder: whether the model thinks like a great engineer. WHAT THIS ROLE ACTUALLY IS You will assess how AI coding agents behave in real-world scenarios — focusing on:
- Whether the response makes sense
- Whether the preamble and reasoning are useful
- Whether the output reflects strong engineering judgment
- Whether the interaction feels right to an experienced developer This role is about engineering taste — not syntax correctness. WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
- Evaluate AI-generated coding interactions end-to-end
- Judge whether outputs are:
- Useful
- Correct (at a high level)
- Aligned with how a strong engineer would think
- Assess the quality of explanations and reasoning, not just code
- Distinguish between different levels of response quality (e.g. what makes something a 2 vs 4)
- Provide clear, opinionated feedback on:
- What worked
- What didn’t
- What felt “off” or misleading
- Help define what great looks like when interacting with tools like Cursor WHAT WE MEAN BY “TASTE” We’re specifically looking for engineers who can answer questions like:
- Does this feel like something a strong engineer would actually say?
- Is this explanation helpful, or just technically correct?
- Is the model guiding the user well, or just dumping output?
- Would this interaction build or erode trust? You should be comfortable making subjective but rigorous judgments. WHO YOU ARE
- Staff / Principal-level engineer (or equivalent experience)
- Strong background in one of the below:
- TypeScript / JavaScript
- Python
- Hands-on experience using:
- OpenAI Codex
- Claude Code
- Cursor
- Deep familiarity with modern AI-assisted dev workflows
- Able to evaluate code without needing to fully execute or deeply review every line
- Comfortable giving direct, opinionated feedback
- High bar for what “good engineering” looks like NICE TO HAVE
- Experience with tools like Cursor or similar AI-first IDEs
- Prior exposure to prompt design or evaluation workflows
- Experience mentoring senior engineers or defining engineering standards ENGAGEMENT DETAILS
- Rate: $100–$200/hour
- Hours: ~10–20 hours/week
- Duration: Through early May (with possible extension)
- Start: ASAP
- Process:
- Take-home evaluation exercise
- One behavioral interview
