Job Description
Role Overview We are seeking expert philosophers to author and review high-quality academic assessment content for an AI research initiative. You will write and verify rigorous multiple-choice questions across core philosophy domains, evaluate solution quality, and help establish gold-standard benchmarks used to advance AI capabilities. Philosophy Domains Covered Ethics & Moral Philosophy Formal Logic World Religions & Philosophy of Religion Epistemology & Metaphysics Miscellaneous Philosophy Task Types Question Authoring — Create original, challenging multiple-choice questions in your area of philosophy expertise, rate their difficulty, and submit them for review. Question Verification — Review pre-written questions for accuracy, clarity, and rigor. Edit where needed, rate difficulty, and document any changes made. For verification tasks: flag issues with clarity, completeness, precision, or solvability and justify any edits made. Key Responsibilities 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 (introductory 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. Ideal Qualifications PhD or doctoral candidate in Philosophy or a closely related field. Master's degree considered for candidates with exceptional depth in a specific subdomain. Strong co
