AI Benchmark Engineer | Native Language Specialist Arabic

We are building a rigorous verifiable evaluation suite of Terminal-Bench tasks designed to test the limits of large language models on multilingual software challenges. Our goal is to measure multilingual robustness across prompt language effects non-English data processing and complex locale/encoding edge cases in terminal workflows.

We are seeking experienced native-speaking software engineers to design build and validate these benchmarks. You will create high-signal high-quality tasks that genuinely test a models ability to handle multilingual environments without relying on English translation crutches.

Note this is a remote freelance opportunity

• Task Engineering: Evaluating Coding Agents.

• Asset Creation: Build realistic task environments using datasets and files in your native language. Crucially these assets must remain in the target language to genuinely measure multilingual handling.

• Prompting & Translation: finding failure points where AI does not work in your native language

• Implementation & Verification: Support the development of robust solutions (reference implementations) and write highly reliable deterministic verifier scripts (using rubric-based judging only when strictly necessary).

• Calibration & Execution: Analyze execution logs and calibrate task difficulty (Easy to Very Hard) using standard Terminal-Bench run configurations against various model tiers (Haiku Sonnet Opus).

• Quality Assurance: Participate in a rigorous 4-layer human quality control process (creation human review calibration review and audit) alongside automated LLM-based checks to ensure fairness grammatical accuracy and benchmark integrity.

• Experience: 5 years of industry experience in software engineering.

• Background: Proven track record at leading technology companies and/or graduation from top-tier engineering universities.

• Language: Native or near-native fluency with a deep understanding of its grammar register and phrasing rules. High English proficiency.

• Technical Stack: Strong proficiency in Python standard shell scripting and data processing.

• Workflow: Extensive experience with Terminal/CLI-based development workflows and a working familiarity with coding agents.

• Domain Expertise: Deep technical understanding of multilingual text processing pitfalls including:

  • Encoding/decoding robustness and Unicode normalization.

  • Locale-dependent conventions (collation casing non-Gregorian dates).

  • Text I/O toolchain interoperability and safe string operations.

  • (For specific languages) Bidirectional/RTL handling font fallbacks and rendering/typography in UI or artifacts.

• Your schedule your rules. As an independent contractor work when you want as much or as little as you want. No fixed hours no check-ins no micromanaging.

• Get paid quickly and fairly. We respect your time and your expertise. Competitive rates prompt payments no chasing invoices.

• Work on projects that actually matter. Contribute to cutting-edge AI and language technology that is shaping how humans and machines communicate.

• Be part of something bigger. Join a global community of linguists subject matter experts and language professionals who are advancing human knowledge together.

• Grow without limits. As a Lilt contractor you get access to diverse innovative projects that expand your portfolio and sharpen your skills across industries and domains.

• Have fun doing what you love. Bring your language skills to life on projects that are as interesting as they are are building a rigorous verifiable evaluation suite of Terminal-Bench tasks designed to test the limits of large language models on multilingual software challenges. Our goal is to measure multilingual robustness across prompt language effects non-English data processing and complex locale/encoding edge cases in terminal workflows.
