About this job

This short remote pilot asks engineers with a doctorate or doctoral candidacy to write technical problems taken from real workflows in their field rather than textbook exercises. Contributors also work out the correct solution, explain the reasoning, and set objective criteria so that another engineer reaches the same verdict on correctness. It suits researchers and practitioners who can also review other contributors' problems and flag any that are ambiguous.

What you'll do

  • Design technical problems based on real engineering work, with realistic constraints and supporting data.
  • Provide the correct solution and walk through the reasoning behind it.
  • Define objective criteria for correctness that another engineer could apply to reach the same verdict.
  • Review problems built by other contributors for technical accuracy and soundness of method.
