$45–65/hr
rate as listedCreate original competitive programming problems, reference solutions, checkers and adversarial test suites for AI evaluation environments. This remote contract requires advanced C++, strong competitive programming evidence and at least 15 hours of weekly availability.
You will design algorithmic problems that do not already appear on Codeforces, AtCoder or another online judge. For each task, you will write a correct reference solution in advanced C++, define and verify constraints, build tests that defeat plausible wrong approaches, and implement a checker when multiple outputs can be valid.
Included with this listing
Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.
What it tests: The screener is looking for verifiable contest records, ratings, placements or concrete setting experience rather than a general claim of algorithmic strength.
A strong answer: Give the relevant platform, handle or event, approximate level reached, and dates or links that can be checked. Connect that evidence to the difficulty and topics of problems you can reliably set.
Where people lose it: Listing platforms without a handle, result, role or example leaves the claimed competitive programming background unverifiable.
Summary, eligibility guidance and screening preparation are prepared by Sidequest from the platform's posting. Check the source listing before applying.
