Job Description

Software Engineer - YAML Experience

What if your precision with YAML configurations could directly influence how AI systems understand and generate structured code for engineers around the world? We're looking for detail-oriented Software Engineers with hands-on YAML experience to evaluate, author, and improve the configuration workflows that power modern AI training pipelines.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for engineers who thrive in the details — the kind of people who spot a misaligned indent or a broken schema reference before anyone else does.

  • Organization: Alignerr (Powered by Labelbox)
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
  • Author, review, and maintain YAML files used for configuration, data pipelines, and system definitions
  • Ensure YAML structures are accurate, well-organized, and compliant with required schemas
  • Identify formatting issues, logical inconsistencies, and edge cases in configuration files
  • Collaborate with engineers and researchers to support reliable system behavior and data quality
  • Apply rigorous attention to detail to prevent errors that could cascade into downstream systems
  • Complete task-based assignments independently on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • 1+ year of professional Software Engineering experience
  • Comfortable working with YAML in real-world production or data-driven environments
  • Highly detail-oriented — you catch subtle errors others miss
  • Familiar with version control workflows (e.g., Git) and structured engineering processes
  • Able to work independently and follow precise technical requirements without hand-holding
  • Clear and concise written communicator
Nice to Have
  • Experience with configuration-driven systems, CI/CD pipelines, or infrastructure tooling
  • Exposure to schema validation, linting, or structured data formats such as JSON or XML
  • Prior experience supporting AI, data, or automation workflows
  • Familiarity with tools like Kubernetes, Ansible, Docker Compose, or similar YAML-heavy environments
Why Join Us
  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based engineering work
  • Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI systems understand and produce structured code
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
