Job Responsibility

Partner with Applied Science researchers to translate cutting-edge evaluation research into production systems: adaptive testing (IRT), agent-centric co-evolution, adversarial benchmarking, and telemetry-driven benchmark generation
Lead the deprecation of saturated benchmarks and design their next-generation replacements — including procedurally-generated code evaluations that can't be memorized and adaptive testing systems that skip trivial questions for frontier models
Build GitHub's community benchmark submission program — enabling external researchers, enterprises, and open-source developers to contribute domain-specific evaluations — and publish GitHub's first external benchmark transparency reports showing how models perform on real developer workflows
Design and operationalize multi-tier evaluation frameworks — from fast automated regression suites and LLM-as-judge systems, through expert human evaluation, to production A/B testing — so teams can iterate in hours, not weeks
Design feedback-to-benchmark pipelines that convert thumbs-down signals, user frustrations, and support tickets into candidate regression tests — systematizing informal practices into scalable, automated systems
Establish evaluation as a first-class discipline across GitHub Copilot — creating the rituals, dashboards, and communication cadences that make evaluation results accessible and actionable for every team
