Remote Python/Typescript Engineer
Role Overview
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.

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
