  • You work on your own schedule, on your own computer, from the comfort of your own home
  • Projects are paid hourly starting at $50-$100+/hr, with higher rates available for certain projects

Responsibilities:

  • Design and solve diverse coding problems used to train AI systems with an emphasis on Android development.
  • Write clear, high-quality code snippets and detailed explanations.
  • Evaluate AI-generated code for accuracy, performance, and clarity.
  • Provide feedback that directly shapes the next generation of AI models.

Qualifications:

  • Fluency in English (native or bilingual level).
  • Preferred experience in Kotlin. Proficiency in at least one of the following programming languages or frameworks: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, C, C#, C++, React, Go, Java, or Swift.
  • Excellent writing and grammar skills.
