Software Engineer – Python + Docker

We are staffing a frontier AI data initiative that requires strong software engineers to build the infrastructure and training data used to develop and evaluate AI agents.

Key Responsibilities

The Engineer will, depending on assigned track:  build Python backend applications that replicate existing SaaS tools (such as Slack, Linear, Jira, Notion, Gmail, and wikis), including implementing integrations and standing up full-service backend functionality.

Perform thorough backend testing and integration validation to ensure each connector behaves faithfully like the system it emulates.

Adapt and extend previously built connectors as needed, and test existing connectors internally before they are treated as complete; Build new connectors from scratch where required, within agreed delivery timeframes.

Conduct data mining and task mining to identify representative workflows suitable for long-horizon task development; Author realistic tasks derived from mined data and workflows.

Verify task and data quality, realism, and correctness through structured QA; Write clear evaluation rubrics that define correct, partially correct, and deficient work.

Use AI coding agents proficiently throughout all development, QA, and validation work; collaborate across the connectors and tasks tracks.

Participate in onboarding, calibration, and quality-review cycles; deliver assigned work to the expected quality bar and on agreed milestones.
