• Design challenging agentic tasks rooted in real-world ML, data science, data engineering, and software workflows, and write accurate, well-documented solutions that serve as ground truth.
• Evaluate AI agent outputs against your solutions, providing detailed written feedback that captures correctness, efficiency, and reasoning quality.
• Develop and refine evaluation frameworks and rubrics for assessing agentic behavior on AI and data science tasks.
• Collaborate with other subject matter experts to ensure consistency and accuracy in training data.

3. Core Qualifications

• 3+ years of research, academic, or industry experience in Machine Learning, or Data Science, or Software Engineering, or Computer Science, or Statistics, or Biology, or Electrical/Mechanical/Civil Engineering, or Physics, or Chemistry, or Mathematics, or Materials Science, or other STEM background.
• Demonstrated technical expertise in at least one of: programming, data analysis, ML modeling, statistical methods, or computational methods.
• Ability to commit to 40 hours per week during weekdays for the duration of the engagement.
• Prior experience with data annotation, labeling, evaluation, or human feedback collection is a strong plus.
• Experience with LLMs, AI systems, or agentic workflows; familiarity with agentic frameworks is a plus.
• Strong written communication skills and the ability to explain technical decisions clearly.
