Remote Algorithm Engineer Jobs in New York (NOW HIRING)

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for professionals experienced in computer science, academic assessment design, technical question authoring, benchmark development, solution verification, and structured CS content review.

This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on high-quality computer science assessment development, multiple-choice question writing, technical content verification, academic benchmark review, and rigorous solution evaluation. Selected professionals will apply their computer science expertise to author, review, and validate challenging assessment materials across core CS domains.

Key Responsibilities

Professionals in this role may contribute to:

Computer Science Question Authoring

• Create original, challenging multiple-choice questions across core computer science domains
• Design questions that test deep conceptual understanding rather than surface-level recall
• Ensure each question is precise, self-contained, unambiguous, and solvable based on the information provided
• Develop plausible answer choices that challenge advanced learners and technical reviewers

Solution Development & Difficulty Calibration

• Write clear, step-by-step reference solutions in structured markdown format
• Rate question difficulty across levels such as introductory undergraduate, advanced undergraduate, or postgraduate-level expertise
• Provide academic references from reputable sources such as peer-reviewed publications, university materials, or recognized technical resources
• Ensure solutions are accurate, concise, logically sound, and aligned with the intended learning objective

Question Verification & Technical Review

• Review pre-written computer science questions for accuracy, clarity, rigor, completeness, and solvability
• Flag issues involving ambiguity, missing assumptions, weak distractors, unclear wording, or incorrect answer logic
• Edit questions where needed and document the rationale for changes
• Maintain high standards for technical correctness, academic quality, and assessment reliability

Ideal Profile

Strong candidates may have:

• Advanced expertise in computer science, electrical engineering, machine learning, systems, algorithms, security, software engineering, or related technical fields
• Strong command of one or more CS areas such as algorithms and data structures, machine learning, AI, systems, networks, theory, computer security, or software engineering
• Experience authoring, reviewing, teaching, grading, or verifying academic or technical assessment content
• Ability to express complex technical ideas clearly and concisely in written English
• Strong attention to detail and ability to identify subtle technical or logical issues
• Comfort working independently on asynchronous technical review tasks

Educational Background

• PhD or doctoral candidacy in computer science, electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a closely related field is highly relevant
• Master's degree may be suitable for candidates with exceptional depth in a specific CS subdomain
• Equivalent experience in advanced research, technical assessment writing, competitive programming, academic teaching, or high-level industry work may also be valuable

Nice to Have

• Research publications, academic teaching experience, competitive programming background, or experience at a leading technology company
• Familiarity with graduate-level CS theory, algorithms, systems design, machine learning, computer security, or software engineering concepts
• Experience preparing or reviewing exam questions, benchmark tasks, technical rubrics, reference solutions, or academic problem sets
• Strong comfort with markdown formatting, technical notation, academic references, and structured review workflows
• Availability for approximately 10+ hours per week depending on project needs

Why This Opportunity

• Apply advanced computer science expertise to structured remote project work
• Contribute to high-quality CS benchmark development, question authoring, solution review, and technical assessment evaluation
• Work on flexible assignments aligned with your academic or technical background
• Use your technical judgment in a rigorous, detail-oriented review environment
• Remote structure with competitive hourly compensation

Contract Details

• Independent contractor role
• Fully remote with flexible scheduling
• Part-time commitment of approximately 10+ hours per week depending on project availability
• Competitive rates between $50–$95 per hour depending on expertise
• Weekly payments via Stripe or Wise
