The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Ship a calibrated NLI-based triage that cuts legal-review hours by 40 percent without missing high-risk JD sentences.
This is not a coding exercise. It is the work a software engineer does between a Jira ticket and a merged PR. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates solve LeetCode problems and none who have shipped production code under real constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Fine-tune an NLI model on a domain-specific extension
- Calibrate classifier outputs and pick operational thresholds
- Build an honest UI that supports human-in-the-loop review
- Hand a model off to a non-engineering team responsibly
