We are looking for Applied Philosophy Benchmark Specialist candidates for a project delivered through the hiring partner.
What you'll do
- Author original philosophy questions that test deep conceptual understanding, not surface-level recall
- Ensure questions are unambiguous, self-contained, and precisely defined — all necessary information must be in the problem statement
- Rate each question's difficulty: Medium (intro undergraduate), Hard (advanced undergraduate), or Expert (post-graduate and above)
- Provide 1 correct answer and 9 plausible but subtly incorrect alternatives that challenge expert-level solvers
- Write step-by-step Chain-of-Thought solutions with clear, concise reasoning in markdown format
- Supply 1–5 academic references per question from reputable sources (peer-reviewed journals, university repositories)
- For verification tasks: flag issues with clarity, completeness, precision, or solvability and justify any edits made
What you need
- Strong command of philosophical argumentation, formal logic, and canonical texts across traditions
- Excellent written English and ability to express complex ideas clearly and concisely
Nice to have
- Research publications or teaching experience in philosophy
