Job Description

Requirements
- -----------

### Must have:

### - We bring at least 2 years of experience in backend engineering, AI automation, or integrating complex systems. - We have demonstrated success building and supporting production-ready software with clear modular boundaries, such as separate services for parsing, business logic, and reporting. - We are proficient in at least two major programming languages, such as Python, JavaScript, Go, or Java, and we have hands-on experience with SQL databases. - We have practical experience developing in live, non-simulated environments and managing multi-step system interactions. - We have excellent attention to detail and can deliver precise, high-density technical feedback on sophisticated system behavior. - We have experience designing multi-stage coordination workflows where data gathering leads to informed outputs. - We have familiarity with connecting agents to live tools and APIs, such as Supabase and Gmail, to address real-world use cases. - We are comfortable implementing persistent state and session tracking using MEMORY.md to monitor agent progress. - We can identify subtle issues such as privacy leakage, authority escalation, and indirect prompt injection.

Responsibilities:
- ----------------

- We help train advanced generative systems by providing human feedback on AI agent behavior. - We work on projects that teach models how to plan, coordinate, and optimize complex real-world architectural workflows. - We support the development of proactive, multi-step agents that can operate across broader task sequences. - We evaluate system performance in live scenarios and provide clear, detailed technical observations. - We contribute our software and orchestration expertise to improve how autonomous agents function in practical environments. - We help identify failure modes and edge cases that affect safety, reliability, and execution quality.
