About Turing
Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems. Turing helps customers in two ways: Working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for companies.
Role Overview
We are seeking candidates with experience in any programming language or tech stacks to validate and ensure the quality of training data used in developing agentic AI systems. This role involves working with function-calling methods to create structured tasks, ensuring data workflows remain consistent, accurate, and aligned with cutting-edge AI requirements.
What does day-to-day look like?
- Validate large-scale training datasets and maintain strict quality standards.
- Create, manipulate, and structure JSON tasks for function-calling workflows.
- Work closely with AI researchers and teams to align datasets with agentic AI use cases.
- Monitor data accuracy, consistency, and integrity across projects.
- Contribute to documentation and best practices for dataset preparation and validation.
Requirements
- Strong proficiency in Python or JavaScript or Java or any other programming languages for data handling and workflow automation.
- Solid understanding of SQL for querying and managing datasets.
- Expertise or Knowledge in handling JSON.
- Exceptional attention to detail with a focus on data quality and consistency.
- Interest in or exposure to agentic AI, LLMs, or NLP best practices.
- Bonus: Prior experience with data annotation tools or prompt engineering for Agent AI.
Perks of Freelancing With Turing
- Work in a fully remote environment.
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies.
Offer Details
- Commitments Required: At least 4 hours per day and minimum 20 hours per week with overlap of 4 hours with PST. (We have 3 options of time commitment: 20 hrs/week, 30 hrs/week or 40 hrs/week)
- Engagement Type: Contractor assignment (no medical/paid leave)

What to Expect
Looking at Turing Software Engineering listings we've tracked, contracts in this domain typically run about 8.4 weeks. Actual length varies by project, but this gives you a realistic baseline going in. This listing's 8-week contract is shorter than the typical 8.4-week Turing Software Engineering engagement.
Based on 28 extracted Turing Software Engineering listings.
Why this role
This LLM Agentic Trainer role is for people with any programming background plus JSON and SQL experience to build and evaluate agentic training tasks. Opening it to any programming language, rather than one specific stack, makes it a broader entry point than Turing's language-specific developer roles.

Common questions
How does Turing's talent matching work?
Turing calls it the Intelligent Talent Cloud. You build a profile and go through vetting (automated tests, an AI-powered interview, practical skill assessments), and once vetted, Turing's algorithm surfaces your profile directly to partner companies like Fortune 500s and top AI labs. You don't browse listings or bid on work; matches come to you.
How and when does Turing pay contractors?
Monthly, in USD, via Deel, Payoneer, or direct bank transfer. You're engaged as an independent contractor responsible for your own local taxes. Plan your cash flow around a monthly cycle if you're used to weekly payouts elsewhere.
What does task-based AI training work look like?
Practical, hands-on data work: recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. Tasks are designed to be short and distinct, typically 5 to 60 minutes each.
What does Software Engineering work look like for a LLM Agentic Trainer - Any programming skill + JSON/SQL experience?
Tasks here are scoped to Software Engineering, not generic labeling. As a LLM Agentic Trainer - Any programming skill + JSON/SQL experience, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Software Engineering) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Software Engineering background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Java, JavaScript, Coding, and Data Annotation 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.
How many hours per week does this role require?
Based on the listing, this role is scoped at about 40 hours per week, over roughly a 8-week contract. Treat this as a real commitment expectation, not a loose estimate.
How much does this specific role pay?
The listing doesn't state a rate. The $12–$30/hr shown here is our estimate from the role type and location (see /pay-methodology), so treat it as a rough guide and confirm the actual rate with the platform before committing time.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to Turing'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.
Can I apply from outside Bangladesh, Brazil, Egypt and 7 other countries?
This specific role is open only to people based in Bangladesh, Brazil, Egypt, India, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Turkey, and Ghana. 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.
Is there an interview?
Yes. One round of technical interview (or) Automated Live coding challenge
