Job Description
AI Engineer/ML Engineer
Prolific Academic Ltd
Role Description We’re looking for AI and Machine Learning Engineers to join our Expert Network to help train and evaluate the next generation of LLMs using deep technical expertise. If you have the necessary experience, we’ll send you a quick 10- to 15-minute test to assess your skills and suitability for AI tasks. If successful, you’ll be invited to join Prolific as a participant, where you’ll get paid to train and evaluate powerful AI models. Researchers looking for your skills tend to pay up to $80 per hour. You must be prepared to complete paid tasks that require one hour of uninterrupted work, though many are shorter. Qualifications - Education: a BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, or a related quantitative field with a focus on Machine Learning. - Professional Experience: experience building, deploying, or fine-tuning ML models in a production environment. - Deep Learning Mastery: professional-level understanding of neural network architectures (Transformers, CNNs, RNNs) and optimization techniques. - LLM Specialization: hands-on experience with Prompt Engineering, RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback), or RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) workflows. - Technical Rigor: the ability to audit complex model logic, identify training data contamination, and evaluate mathematical proofs behind ML algorithms. - Analytical Critique: high attention to detail in spotting "hallucinations," biased outputs, or logical failures in AI-generated technical content. Requirements - Evaluate LLM Architecture Logic: review AI-generated explanations of model architectures, loss functions, and backpropagation for technical accuracy. - Audit Code & Notebooks: validate ML-specific code (e.g., training loops, data preprocessing scripts, or model evaluations) for efficiency and correctness. - Refine RLHF Frameworks: provide the high-quality human feedback necessary to align models with human intent, safety, and helpfulness. - Analyze Model Reasoning: critically assess how an AI model navigates complex chain-of-thought (CoT) prompts and identify where the reasoning breaks down. - Benchmark Performance: conduct comparative testing between different model outputs based on specific technical taxonomies and performance metrics. Key Technologies - Frameworks: expert proficiency in PyTorch or TensorFlow/Keras. - Language & Data: advanced Python (NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn) and experience with Hugging Face Transformers. - Cloud & MLOps: experience with AWS (SageMaker), Google Cloud (Vertex AI), or specialized tools like Weights & Biases and LangChain. - Vector Databases: familiarity with Pinecone, Milvus, or Weaviate for RAG evaluation. Benefits - Competitive pay rates. - Flexible hours. - Ability to work from home.

Role Description Kimchi is the AI platform inside CAST AI. We started by helping companies run LLMs on their own Kubernetes clusters - now we're building the execution layer where agents do real work. What you'll build: - The ratchet: Engineering solutions to prevent agent mistakes. - Long-horizon execution: Spec-driven autonomy, automatic replanning, and crash recovery. - Planner/executor splits: Using different models for planning, executing, and evaluating. - The harness surface: CLI, TUI, MCP integration, and telemetry. - Memory and context: Managing state and context across sessions. Qualifications - Experience using AI coding agents in real work scenarios. - Strong TypeScript or Go skills in production. - Ability to think in harness terms and diagnose context issues. - Experience driving features end-to-end. Requirements - Build and evolve the agent harness. - Own long-horizon execution and completion metrics. - Architect planner/executor/evaluator pipelines. - Manage agent memory and context. - Own the harness surface and integrations. Benefits - Competitive salary (€6,500 - €9,000 gross, depending on experience). - Flexible, remote-first global environment. - Collaboration with a global team of cloud experts. - Equity options. - Fast-paced workflow with quick feedback. - 10% of work time on personal projects or self-improvement. - Learning budget for professional and personal development. - Annual hackathon to spark new ideas. - Team-building budget and company events. - Equipment budget for necessary tools. - Extra days off for work-life balance.
