Senior AI Interaction Evaluator (Codex / Claude Code)

What This Role Actually Is

You will assess how AI coding agents behave in real-world scenarios — focusing on:

• Whether the response makes sense
• Whether the preamble and reasoning are useful
• Whether the output reflects strong engineering judgment
• Whether the interaction feels right to an experienced developer

This role is about engineering taste — not syntax correctness.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Evaluate AI-generated coding interactions end-to-end
• Judge whether outputs are:
  • Useful
  • Correct (at a high level)
  • Aligned with how a strong engineer would think
• Assess the quality of explanations and reasoning , not just code
• Distinguish between different levels of response quality (e.g. what makes something a 2 vs 4)
• Provide clear, opinionated feedback on:
  • What worked
  • What didn’t
  • What felt “off” or misleading
• Help define what great looks like when interacting with tools like Cursor

What We Mean by “Taste”

We’re specifically looking for engineers who can answer questions like:

• Does this feel like something a strong engineer would actually say?
• Is this explanation helpful, or just technically correct?
• Is the model guiding the user well, or just dumping output?
• Would this interaction build or erode trust?

You should be comfortable making subjective but rigorous judgments .

Who You Are

• Prior exposure to prompt design or evaluation workflows
• Experience mentoring senior engineers or defining engineering standards
