Idler

Software Engineer

Senior Software Engineer

Idler builds reinforcement learning environments that teach AI models to code like 0.01% engineers. Our training environments are based on real-world coding scenarios that frontier models will actually encounter. We've closed a multimillion-dollar contract with a leading foundation lab, and demand is outpacing our capacity. We're scaling fast to build the training data layer for frontier AI. This role involves building features and tooling for agentic systems that create and QA coding environments, working with senior engineers and the founding team to design technically sound and philosophically robust systems.
