What the work involves

You are the person who decides whether a model's output would survive contact with a real commissioner. Day to day that means authoring discovery parameters and guardrails for AI builders — sport, league size, roster settings, PPR versus standard, whether value is tier-based or raw-points — then validating the context files those builders lean on: player projections, roster exports, custom scoring rule sets. A large share of the time goes to grounding golden assets: checking that a scoring formula actually computes what the rulebook says, that standings tiebreakers resolve in the right order, that playoff seeding logic handles division winners and head-to-head correctly, and that draft-value calculations behave sensibly at the edges of a board. You also co-design interview workflows and sign off on generated outputs.

What the platform screens for

  • Deterministic thinking. Turing's language is explicit about translating league rules into spreadsheet formulas and structured parameters. Screeners look for whether you can state a rule as a formula with named inputs, not as a paragraph of narration.
  • Breadth across formats. Half-PPR, TE premium, six-point passing TDs, superflex, dynasty versus redraft, best-ball, auction budgets. Depth in exactly one league you've run for a decade reads thinner than fluency across formats.
  • Edge cases and tiebreakers. The gap between a competent fantasy player and a commissioner is usually visible in how they handle a two-way tie with a split head-to-head, a stat correction after Tuesday, or a kicker on a bye in a lineup with no valid replacement.
  • Written precision. Outputs here are specifications and sign-off notes, so concise professional writing is a stated requirement rather than a nice-to-have.

Logistics

Fully remote, contractor engagement, 40 hours per week with eight hours of overlap with PST — meaning a working day that reaches into US Pacific business hours regardless of where you sit. Engagement length is stated as up to two weeks, so treat it as a short, intense sprint rather than an ongoing income stream; Turing does sometimes re-engage contributors on later batches, but nothing in the listing promises that. Weekend on-call availability is required, which fits the rhythm of sports data — Sunday and Monday are when scoring logic gets stress-tested. Part-time is accepted per the posting. You supply your own desktop or laptop and a stable high-speed connection. Pay is undisclosed for this listing; Turing typically quotes an hourly rate at the delivery-interview stage.
