Senior C Engineer – Remote (up to $30/hr)

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Senior C Engineer to work remotely on a contract basis, reviewing and improving AI‑generated C code and low‑level system designs. You will ensure correctness, safety, performance, and reliability of production‑grade software.

Key responsibilities

• Review AI‑generated C code, system designs, and technical explanations for safety and performance.
• Evaluate embedded‑development solutions involving memory management, pointers, concurrency, OS interaction, and hardware.
• Identify logic errors, undefined behavior, race conditions, memory leaks, and other low‑level bugs.
• Analyze C implementations for readability, maintainability, efficiency, and coding‑standard compliance.
• Generate high‑quality reference implementations, debugging analyses, and architectural explanations.
• Compare and rank multiple AI‑generated responses based on technical correctness and memory safety.
• Fact‑check systems‑programming concepts, compiler behavior, and performance‑critical strategies.
• Assess build systems, linker behavior, compiler interactions, debugging tools, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing processes.
• Support AI model improvement through annotation, technical evaluation, and documentation workflows.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 4 + years of professional experience developing production C software for systems, embedded, or performance‑critical environments.
• Expert‑level proficiency in C, with deep knowledge of pointers, memory allocation, and undefined behavior.
• Strong background in concurrency, operating systems, hardware interaction, synchronization, and performance optimization.
• Hands‑on experience with compilers, build systems, linkers, debugging tools, CI/CD workflows, and automated testing.
