Job description
C++ Engineer - High Performance Computing (HPC)
About the Role
What if your mastery of C++ could directly shape the infrastructure powering the next generation of AI? We're looking for senior C++ engineers to build and optimize the high-performance systems that leading AI labs depend on - data pipelines, annotation tooling, evaluation infrastructure, and more.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. If you live and breathe modern C++, care deeply about performance, and want your work to have real impact on cutting-edge AI research, this is the role for you.

- Organization
: Alignerr - Type
: Hourly Contract - Location
: Remote - Commitment
: 20-40 hours/week
- Design, build, and optimize high-performance C++ systems supporting AI data pipelines and evaluation workflows
- Develop full-stack tooling and backend services for large-scale data annotation, validation, and quality control
- Improve reliability, performance, and safety across production C++ codebases
- Identify bottlenecks and edge cases in data and system behavior, then implement scalable, robust fixes
- Collaborate with data, research, and engineering teams to support model training and evaluation workflows
- Participate in synchronous design reviews to iterate on architecture and implementation decisions
- 5+ years of professional experience writing production-grade C++ - modern standards (C++17 or C++20) preferred
- Deep understanding of computer architecture, SIMD intrinsics, and cache coherency to optimize compute-heavy AI workloads
- Expert in lock-free programming and maximizing parallelism using threading libraries
- Full-stack developer background with a strong systems programming foundation
- Native or fluent English speaker with clear written and verbal communication skills
- Able to commit 20-40 hours per week consistently
- Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation systems
- Familiarity with AI/ML workflows, model training, or benchmarking pipelines
- Experience with distributed systems or developer tooling
- Background in HPC, game engines, or other performance-critical domains
- Work directly with leading AI labs on real production systems - not toy projects
- Fully remote and flexible - work on your schedule, from anywhere
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, high-impact engineering work
- Tackle genuinely hard technical problems at the frontier of AI infrastructure
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
