- Compensation :US $300/ Approved Task (Average Task Handling Time: 6-8 Hours)
- Commitments Required: Full time. 40 hours per week with 4 hours PST overlap per day
- Employment type: Contractor
- Mode of Work: Fully Remote
- Number of positions: 120

What we're looking for:

- Ph.D., postdoctoral experience, or equivalent advanced technical experience in mathematics, statistics, or a closely related discipline.
- Strong programming skills in Python, R, Julia, C/C++, Bash, or another relevant language.
- Experience working in Linux or terminal-based environments.
- Experience with numerical methods, optimization, statistics, mathematical modeling, or scientific computation.
- Ability to independently implement, test, and validate computational algorithms.
- Strong understanding of numerical stability, error analysis, mathematical assumptions, and reproducibility.

Core Domains

Nice to have:

- Experience with NumPy,



SciPy, SymPy, pandas, scikit-learn, JAX, PyTorch, CVXPY, or similar tools.
- Familiarity with optimization solvers, probabilistic programming, differential-equation libraries, or numerical linear algebra packages.
- Experience with Monte Carlo methods, stochastic processes, Bayesian inference, graph algorithms, or computational geometry.
- Familiarity with Docker, Conda, Git, CI systems, and automated testing.
- Experience developing mathematical programming challenges, benchmark tasks, or automated graders.

What you'll do:

- Design authentic, multi-step computational mathematics tasks.
- Translate mathematical and research workflows into self-contained terminal environments.
- Prepare datasets, equations, model definitions, constraints, initial conditions, and expected outputs.
- Implement expert solutions using Python, R, Julia, C/C++, Bash, or other relevant tools.
- Create tasks involving optimization, numerical integration, differential equations, matrix computation, statistical inference, stochastic modeling, or algorithm analysis.
- Define rigorous grading criteria based on numerical accuracy, convergence, complexity, feasibility, and mathematical correctness.
- Establish appropriate tolerances, stopping criteria, stability requirements, and reproducibility controls.
- Develop automated tests that validate results across edge cases and alternative valid implementations.
- Debug issues involving floating-point precision, solver failures, conditioning, convergence, and performance.
- Document assumptions, mathematical formulations, expected outputs, and known limitations.

Bonus Points

- Experience evaluating AI coding or terminal agents.
- Research software engineering experience.
- Experience working with HPC or performance-critical numerical code.
- Publications or open-source contributions in applied mathematics or computational science.
- Experience designing tests that distinguish mathematically valid solutions from approximate or numerically unstable ones.
