Benefits offered by this job

Remote work

Flexible hours

Job summary

Vettedlance seeks contributors to craft hard algorithmic problems and provide reference solutions and comprehensive test suites. You will design original competitive-programming tasks with precise constraints and develop checkers in C++ to ensure correct grading across edge cases.

Fluency in C++ and/or Python, plus a rigorous approach to testing, will help verify solutions and their performance on challenging inputs.

Qualifications

• Strong record in competitive programming or algorithm contests.
• Fluency in C++ and/or Python, algorithms and data structures.
• Rigor in testing edge cases and constraints.
• Able to work independently on per-task deliverables.

Responsibilities

• Write original competitive-programming problems with clear constraints.
• Implement reference solutions and full test suites.
• Build checkers (often in C++) that grade answers correctly.
• Probe edge cases, complexity limits and reproducibility.
