Quantum Computing Experts: Technical Audit of a Beginner Exam

WHAT WE'RE RESEARCHING We're running a paid study on educational assessment in the quantum computing space. We are hiring domain experts to evaluate a structured exam paper designed for beginners. The goal is to ensure all technical questions, code prompts, and rubrics are scientifically sound and free of ambiguity. HOW IT WORKS During this remote task, you will review a JSON file containing multiple-choice and short-answer questions covering fundamental quantum concepts like qubits, superposition, and entanglement. You will audit the provided answers for technical correctness and ensure distractor options are logically distinct. Additionally, you will verify Qiskit code questions, evaluate the grading rubrics, and propose edge test cases for the code evaluations. Finally, you will return an approved or corrected version of the exam dataset. WHO THIS IS FOR We welcome quantum software engineers, quantum physicists, and computer scientists specializing in quantum information. You should have strong practical experience with quantum circuits, quantum gates, and the Qiskit framework. We also welcome academic instructors or teaching assistants who have previously designed coursework in quantum mechanics or applied quantum computing. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Audit multiple-choice options and correct answers for technical accuracy and clarity - Verify the accuracy of Qiskit code snippets used to generate quantum states - Review and refine grading rubrics for short-answer and coding questions - Propose and document edge test cases to ensure robust automated grading - Submit a corrected JSON file containing the finalized exam questions and answers WHO SHOULD APPLY - Professional or academic background in quantum computing or quantum physics - Hands-on experience writing and evaluating quantum circuits using Qiskit - Strong understanding of core quantum concepts like superposition and entanglement - Comfortable reading and editing structured JSON data COMPENSATION $11 one-time   READY TO PARTICIPATE?
