Software Engineers: Paid Code Review for AI Agent Evaluation

Yes. Terac is a funded, US-based marketplace with real AI-lab and market-research clients, not a task-mill. It verifies your identity and professional background before matching you to any paid work, which is stricter screening than most open task queues use.

You complete a short AI-driven interview, identity verification, and a domain-specific screening test once. After that, Terac matches verified candidates to paid studies that fit their profile instead of running an open queue, and pay is released once your submission on this listing is checked against the requirements above.

Project-based, not steady. Terac opens listings like this in bursts when an AI lab requests a specific batch, categorizing data, writing or validating coding tasks, creating expert-level problems, and closes them once the batch is filled or complete. Treat it as recurring gig income you requalify for each time, not a standing job.

Pay tracks verified expertise, not a platform-wide rate. Generalist labeling sits at a few dollars an hour; work gated behind a passed domain screening, like software engineering or STEM problem creation, pays task bounties well over $100. Check this listing's own rate above rather than assuming other Terac listings pay the same.

For the top pay tiers, a PhD or current enrollment is usually expected. But the domain assessment is what decides it: if you can solve the problems, the degree becomes secondary.

Usually not. Work runs in campaigns, like training a model specifically on quantum mechanics, that might last a few weeks. Treat it as a high-paying fellowship or grant rather than a permanent daily job.

Tasks here are scoped to STEM, not generic labeling. As a Software Engineers: Paid Code Review for AI Agent Evaluation, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to STEM) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on STEM background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.

Coding and Expert are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening process to test for them directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.

This listing is posted at $65/hr, an hourly rate. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.

You'll be taken to Terac's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.

This specific role is open only to people based in the United States and Canada. If you are somewhere else, applying is unlikely to lead to an offer even if you pass the assessment, because the restriction is usually about where the work can legally be contracted rather than your skills. Read the full description for any tax-residency or right-to-work caveats before you apply, since they can differ by country.
