About this opportunity

About Turing: Turing is one of the world's leading AGI infrastructure companies, working with frontier AI labs to accelerate model development through high-quality training data, evaluations, and engineering talent. About the Role: We are seeking Mathematics experts to develop realistic, terminal-based scientific tasks for Terminal Bench Science. You will design tasks involving numerical analysis, optimization, statistics, mathematical modeling, probability, dynamical systems, and computational mathematics. The role focuses on evaluating whether AI agents can formulate mathematical problems, implement reliable algorithms, operate in a terminal environment, debug numerical workflows, and produce verifiable computational results.

Key responsibilities

  • What You'll Do:
  • Design and build authentic computational mathematics tasks — translate mathematical and research workflows into self-contained, multi-step terminal environments, complete with datasets, equations, model definitions, constraints, and expected outputs.
  • Implement expert solutions using Python, R, Julia, C/C++, Bash, or other relevant tools, covering areas such as optimization, numerical integration, differential equations, matrix computation, statistical inference, stochastic modeling, or algorithm analysis.
  • Define rigorous grading criteria, including numerical accuracy, convergence, complexity, feasibility, and mathematical correctness, along with appropriate tolerances, stopping criteria, stability requirements, and reproducibility controls.
  • Develop automated tests and debug issues — validate results across edge cases and alternative valid implementations, and troubleshoot problems involving floating-point precision, solver failures, conditioning, convergence, and performance.
  • Document the work thoroughly, including assumptions, mathematical formulations, expected outputs, and known limitations.

Benefits & perks

  • Engagement Details:
  • Commitments Required: At least 6 hours per day and a minimum of 40 hours per week, with a 4-hour overlap with PST.
  • Employment Type: Contractor assignment (no medical/paid leave).
  • Duration of Contract: 5 weeks (expected start date is next week).
  • Payment Type: Pay per task — $300 per approved task.
  • Referral Bonus: $100.
