Championing community-built tools, libraries, and insights, helping amplify external contributions and shape standards for transparent evaluation.
Collaborating cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Comms, and Research to help define how we explain and scale the platform.

With over one million monthly users and growing developer adoption, our impact is helping guide the next generation of safe, aligned AI systems—grounded in open access and collective feedback.
Our work is regularly referenced by industry leaders pushing the frontier of safe and reliable AI. Sundar Pichai, Jeff Dean, Elon Musk, and Sam Altman.
High Impact: Your work will be used daily by the world’s most advanced AI labs.
Global Reach: Develop data infrastructure powering millions of real-world evaluations, influencing AI reliability across industries at the top-tier
Exceptional Team: We are a small team of top talent from Google, DeepMind, Discord, Vercel, UC Berkeley, and Stanford.

Proven track record of creating technical content such as tutorials, documentation, demos, or blog posts for developer audiences
Experience engaging with technical users (e.g., AI researchers, ML engineers, open-source contributors), especially in community or support contexts
Demonstrated ability to gather developer feedback and translate it into actionable product or platform improvements
Excellent communication skills:able to explain complex technical systems clearly across mediums (written, verbal, live demos)
Comfortable working cross-functionally with engineering, product, and communications teams in a fast-paced, early-stage environment
A proactive, self-directed work style with the ability to operate independently and prioritize impact
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with AI evaluation, LLM fine-tuning, or benchmarks.
Familiarity with open-source development, especially in ML ecosystems.
Experience hosting workshops, tutorials, or online dev-focused content.
