The work
You will create training and evaluation tasks for AI coding models. The work turns real software vulnerabilities into audit and patch exercises that test whether a model can identify, understand, reproduce, and securely fix a security issue.
You will work with vulnerabilities from CVEs, security advisories, bug reports, and open-source repositories. You will also review AI-generated patches and reasoning against technical rubrics.
- Classify vulnerabilities using the most specific applicable CWE and relevant OWASP Top 10 categories.
- Reproduce vulnerabilities and write reliable proof-of-vulnerability tests.
- Build Harbor-format audit and patch tasks in Python, JavaScript or TypeScript, Java, C or C++, C#, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Kotlin, and Swift.
- Write realistic task instructions and create reproducible Docker environments with pinned dependencies.
- Harden verifiers against gaming and test manipulation.
- Review AI-generated code patches and explanations using technical evaluation rubrics.
What it takes
This is a remote contractor role for at least 20 hours per week. The work requires professional software engineering experience, strong software security knowledge, and the ability to work independently in a research-focused setting.
- At least five years of professional software engineering experience.
- Expert proficiency in at least one supported programming language.
- Professional fluency in English.
- Strong knowledge of CWE, CVE, and the OWASP Top 10.
- Ability to reproduce vulnerabilities and write proof-of-vulnerability tests.
- Experience with sanitizers, fuzzers, and static analysis tools such as CodeQL or Semgrep.
- Strong Git, Linux, Bash, Docker, technical writing, and documentation skills.
- Open to candidates worldwide.
- Experience building security benchmarks, analyzing open-source vulnerabilities, creating automated tests, or evaluating code patches is helpful.
