Software Engineer - Python/Typescript

**About Turing:** Turing is one of the world's leading AGI infrastructure companies, working with frontier AI labs to accelerate model development through high\-quality training data, evaluations, and engineering talent. **About the Role:** We're looking for a high\-taste engineer with a strong eye for quality — someone who's worked hands\-on with preference data and rubric creation, and knows what separates a good example from a great one. You communicate clearly and can synthesize complex technical work the way a strong MAI dev would: concise, structured, and easy for others to act on. You're comfortable in ambiguous, fast\-moving environments and default to shipping over deliberating. **What does day\-to\-day look like:*** Design, refine, and iterate on rubrics and evaluation criteria for preference data * Review and label data with a high bar for quality, catching subtle issues others might miss * Build and maintain pipelines/infra that support data generation, collection, and evaluation workflows * Synthesize findings from data work into clear write\-ups, updates, or recommendations for the team * Collaborate closely with researchers/engineers to translate qualitative judgment into scalable processes **Required Skills:*** Proficiency in Python (especially building/maintaining pipelines and infra) or Typescript (experience contributing to or navigating large codebases like VSCode a plus) * Hands\-on experience with preference data collection and/or rubric creation * Strong written and verbal communication — able to distill technical work into clear, actionable summaries * Demonstrated high\-taste judgment — able to articulate why something is good, not just that it is. **Perks of Freelancing With Turing:*** Work in a fully remote environment. * Opportunity to work on cutting\-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies. **Engagement Details:*** **Compensation:** Market rate. Please share a specific rate expectation (rather than a range) so we can quickly assess mutual fit * **Availability:** 40 hours/week preferred, with a minimum 6\-hour overlap with Pacific Time. If you're unable to commit to 40 hours, please share your available hours and overlap window * Employment Type: Independent contractor (does not include medical or paid leave benefits * **Duration:** 3 months, with an expected start date as soon as possible **Evaluation Process (approximately 30 mins):*** One round of interview (30 mins of technical \& cultural discussion)
