New: RL environments scored against human competitors →

Competition Mathematician

You will write and judge problems that separate reasoning from pattern matching. Hard puzzles with one checkable answer and no shortcut.

What we are looking for

IMO, Putnam or national olympiad medallist

  • Record — Olympiad or Putnam results, or published problem sets
  • Taste — You know when a problem is hard for the right reason
  • Rigour — Every answer you write can be checked exactly
  • Adversarial instinct — You look for the shortcut before a model does

Work you might do

  • Writing original puzzles with verified unique answers
  • Reviewing solutions for reasoning, not just the final number
  • Attacking the answer checker with degenerate submissions
  • Retiring problems once they leak or saturate
