Frontier AI labs are building coding agents that do real engineering work. Before these coding agents ship, Senior Engineers have to work a real problem from a codebase they know, step by step, to identify where a frontier model goes wrong then correct it.

Not just anyone can do this. It takes a select group of engineers with experience and taste.

Engineers who qualify join a fixed-pay contract: earn $6,000/wk for 40hrs of work ($150/hr). Work on your own schedule, paid weekly.

Judge the AI's work. Give an agent a real ticket, then review its output like a teammate's pull request: run it, evaluate it.

Pair with the AI on your own task. Work a real problem from a codebase you know, step by step, and flag where the model goes wrong.

What's in it for you

Senior-engineer pay. A weekly contract paying $6,000 for a 40-hour week. Work from anywhere, any time.

Work that lasts. This is not a two-week gig. The work is here month after month, and the 40 hours are yours every week you're on the team.

An elite, hand-picked team. You’ll have priority access to the projects frontier labs trust us with, the ones every engineer wants a seat on.

Problems that are actually hard. Your work on difficult tasks goes straight back to the labs training the next best-in-class models.

A seat at the table. You'll work directly with project leads from day one. Your read on where models fail and where the bar should sit shapes how we run these programs.

Ongoing, on your schedule. The contract renews every week while you meet quality standards. You set your hours. Exceptional engineers may be approved for additional hours, paid at $150/hr on top of your base earnings.
