We are engaging Senior Backend Engineers to participate in an advanced project for a customer, focused on creating sophisticated Reinforcement Learning Environments for AI model training and evaluation. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.
As an expert, you will create Reinforcement Learning Environments that test an AI model’s ability to design, deploy, troubleshoot, secure, scale, and recover production-grade cloud infrastructure.
You will develop realistic scenarios involving distributed systems, networking, IAM, queues, durable storage, observability, rolling deployments, and disaster recovery, then build reproducible environments, deterministic validation tests, golden reference solutions, and intentionally defective variants.
Scope of Work
- Design, develop, and implement realistic cloud infrastructure environments to evaluate AI model proficiency in systems design, deployment, and troubleshooting.
- Create detailed and reproducible scenarios involving distributed systems, networking, Identity and Access Management (IAM), message queues, persistent storage, observability, rolling deployments, and disaster recovery.
- Develop deterministic validation tests and golden reference solutions to ensure the reliability and accuracy of reinforcement learning environments.
- Produce intentionally defective variants and failure scenarios to rigorously test AI model responses and
