About this opportunity
Overview
ExpertWoka is sourcing mathematics experts for a contractor assignment focused on creating realistic, terminal-based scientific tasks for benchmark evaluation. The work centers on numerical analysis, optimization, statistics, mathematical modeling, probability, dynamical systems, and computational mathematics.
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 grading criteria based on numerical accuracy, convergence, complexity, feasibility, and mathematical correctness.
- Establish 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.
Requirements
- 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.
