About micro1
micro1 is a data engine that helps AI labs train foundational models and enterprises build AI agents. We provide frontier evaluations and reinforcement learning environments used to improve LLM capabilities, as well as contextual evaluations used to monitor and improve AI agents in enterprise settings. Our data engine includes an AI recruiter agent that sources and vets domain experts, a data platform that enables rapid production of high-quality training data, and a pipeline performance system that ensures both quality and velocity.
Our goal is to have 1 billion people doing meaningful work by contributing their expertise to the development of frontier AI models. We’ve raised $40M+ in funding, and our AI recruiter has powered more than 1 million AI-led interviews as our global network of experts expands to form the human intelligence layer for AGI.
Job Description
Job Title: Software Engineer (Human Data Platforms)
Job Type: Full-time
Location: Remote (Must overlap PST timezone at least 6-8 hours)
The Role
Build and ship systems across the stack — APIs, UI, and data pipelines.
You’ll work on data and document infrastructure that powers model evaluation, secure data handling, and complex document workflows. Expect to move fast, own problems end-to-end, and operate with high autonomy in a small, senior team.
What You’ll Do
- Ship features across backend (Python/FastAPI) and frontend (React/Next.js/TypeScript).
- Build data pipelines for evaluation and model control layers.
- Own secure document pipelines (S3/GCS/Azure, permissions, no data leakage).
- Develop OCR + search systems for PDFs, images, and scanned docs.
- Parse and enforce complex nested JSON structures.
- Build document tooling (generate, edit, annotate PDFs/images).
- Debug and scale pipelines and storage systems.
- Improve performance, reliability, and system design across the stack.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong builder with Python (FastAPI) + React experience.
- Comfortable working across the stack.
- Solid fundamentals: APIs, SQL, async systems, data modeling.
- Experience with cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure).
- Ability to work with complex data systems or pipelines.
- High ownership, low ego, fast execution.
Preferred
- LLM / AI system experience.
- OCR, document processing, or search systems.
- Experience with secure data handling / permissions.
- Built and shipped real systems (not just tutorials).
