Fuzzy jobs are roles that focus on areas where definitions, boundaries, and requirements are less clear-cut compared to traditional positions. These jobs often involve creative problem-solving, adaptability, and working in environments with ambiguity or evolving objectives. Examples can include roles in innovation, strategy, product development, or emerging technology fields. People in fuzzy jobs typically need strong communication and collaboration skills to navigate uncertainty and drive progress. These roles are increasingly valuable as organizations face rapid change and complex challenges.

Job description

Engineering โ€ข Full-time โ€ข San Francisco
Apply
Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.
Software Engineer, Reinforcement learning
Cursor is building the future of coding. We train frontier coding agents and scale RL on real user data to make them increasingly effective.
About the role
As a Software Engineer on the RL Data team at Cursor, you'll create the tasks, rewards, and environments that train our coding agents. The team owns the data that goes into training: what the model is asked to do, how we score it, and the setups it learns in.
What you'll do
  • Designing a task set that teaches a specific agent capability, then iterating on it from traces and evals until the model actually gets better.
  • Reading a pile of agent traces, finding a failure mode or a surprising behavior, and building a system that surfaces more of the same.
  • Turning a one-off recipe into something other teams can reuse: better rewards, cleaner environments, tighter data quality.
  • Partnering with research on whether a dataset is actually teaching the thing we think it is.

You may be a fit if
  • You write careful, fast code and have strong software engineering fundamentals.
  • You like setting tasks: breaking a fuzzy capability into something concrete you can measure.
  • You have an infra, data, or distributed systems background. RL experience is a plus, not a requirement.
  • You enjoy looking at messy real-world agent behavior and turning it into a dataset or a tool.
