About this role
Open Source Fellow C/C++
About the job
ByteAsk is building an AI coding agent specifically for C and C++.
We’re looking for a small group of engineers who want to spend the next three months working on real open-source C/C++ codebases.
What you'll do
-
Pick active C/C++ open-source repositories you care about and use ByteAsk to solve real issues and contribute PRs.
-
Your goal is simple: get useful code merged.
-
The work you get merged will be published with credit to you.
-
You might be a good fit if
-
You’re strong in C or C++ and comfortable debugging low-level systems code
-
You can navigate large, unfamiliar codebases without needing everything explained first
-
You’re comfortable with build systems, compiler errors, tests, CI failures, and dependency issues
-
You can take an issue from reproduction → root cause → patch → pull request
-
You know Git and GitHub well enough to work with branches, diffs, reviews, and upstream maintainers
-
You can read existing code and match the conventions and architecture of the project
-
You’re comfortable debugging code you didn’t write
-
You can independently find meaningful issues and figure out what is worth fixing
-
Prior open-source contributions are a plus, but not required
-
Fellowship
-
Duration: 3 months initially
-
Location: Remote
-
Also included: ByteAsk subscription
-
If spending three months getting real C++ code merged while stress-testing a new coding agent sounds fun, we’d like to talk.
