Kotlin Expert (SME) – Consultant Description
Purpose
We are seeking a highly experienced Kotlin Software Engineering professional to serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) on advanced software development and AI benchmarking projects. This role is pivotal in designing, documenting, and validating Kotlin-based tasks and functionalities that test and refine the coding capabilities of large language models (LLMs) — particularly within Android development environments.
Your work will define both the technical standard and the functional scaffolding of real-world coding benchmarks, ensuring all tasks meet the highest levels of authenticity, precision, and reproducibility. You will help assemble datasets and functional frameworks that mirror the complexity and reasoning required in professional Android engineering.
Core Components
Domain
Example SME Responsibilities
Android Functionality Design
Define and document functional benchmarks such as ViewModel lifecycle management, asynchronous data fetching, and Compose state handling.
Benchmark Dataset Creation
Source and curate Kotlin tasks that measure model comprehension and code accuracy, ensuring each is verifiable and complete.
Code Review & QA
Apply QA rubrics to assess correctness, structure, and maintainability of Kotlin-based benchmark submissions.
Talent Calibration
Develop and refine role definitions and test exercises for Kotlin annotators or contributors.
Documentation Ownership
Author clear, maintainable task documentation describing functionality, context, and test criteria for model evaluation.
Continuous Improvement
Identify recurring code or comprehension defects and propose updated documentation or templates to address them.
Summary
This Kotlin SME role merges engineering excellence, documentation rigor, and benchmark development expertise. You will help shape the foundation for evaluating AI models in real-world Android engineering, defining how Kotlin is used to measure and guide the next generation of intelligent software systems.
We offer a pay range of $25-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.
