Summary
What you’ll impact
The Senior Machine Learning Engineer will author high-fidelity reasoning traces to teach large language models how to plan, use tools, and make decisions on complex technical tasks. This fully remote, flexible contract role requires senior-level ML expertise and independent, asynchronous work.
Responsibilities
What you'll do
- Author complex, high-fidelity reasoning traces that show how an LLM should plan, use tools, and make decisions to solve sophisticated technical tasks
- Apply senior-level architectural insight to ensure traces reflect sound, reliable model decision-making
- Decompose intricate real-world problems into clear, logical, and well-documented steps
- Review and mentor structured traces to maintain the highest standards of planning and tool-use documentation
- Design data strategies that help LLMs navigate multi-step, ambiguous, and high-stakes scenarios
- Contribute to training pipelines that push the frontier of what AI can reason through
Requirements
What you’ll bring
- Experienced in Machine Learning or a closely related technical field, with a strong focus on model reasoning and decision-making
- Skilled at breaking down complex problems into structured, logical, and clearly documented steps
- Familiar with advanced LLM evaluation and training methodologies
- Rigorous in your thinking — you care about correctness, nuance, and the downstream impact of training data quality
- Self-directed and comfortable working independently in an asynchronous remote environment
