Competitive Programming Challenge Developer - Remote

Overview

This role involves creating terminal bench–style problems and tasks involving agents within a competitive programming environment, as part of a hiring effort for its AI lab partner building advanced agent-based infrastructure.

In Short

• Develop interactive, terminal-based challenges that test the problem-solving capabilities of autonomous agents in real-time coding scenarios.

Requirements

• Track record of success in competitive programming contests (e.g., ICPC, Codeforces, LeetCode, AtCoder, HackerRank)
• Strong skills in algorithms, data structures, and systems-level thinking
• Proficient in Python, C++, or Go, and comfortable working in terminal-based coding environments
• Ability to design programming problems that test time complexity, memory constraints, logic correctness, and multi-step reasoning
• Experience with online judge systems, sandboxed environments, or contest infrastructure
• Curiosity about AI agents and interest in how agents can solve real-world programming tasks
• Enjoy creating reproducible, progressive challenges and can abstract real-world systems problems into code-based puzzles

Benefits

• Define a new generation of programming benchmarks built specifically for AI agents
• Blend algorithmic design, problem solving, and systems-level realism in one role
• Work on uncharted challenges that push the boundaries of what agents can understand and execute
