About this role
We're looking for a senior circuit design expert to help build a benchmark of the hardest reasoning questions in the field — questions specifically designed to be difficult enough that today's most capable AI models still get them wrong. You'll author original, free-response engineering problems grounded in real industry scenarios, write a complete expert-level solution for each, and validate difficulty by running it against three frontier language models until at least one fails. Requirements: PhD in Electrical Engineering, plus 5+ years of hands-on professional/industry experience in analog, digital, power, or RF circuit design. Design verification roles (UVM/SystemVerilog/DV) do not qualify, regardless of tenure — we need candidates who have shipped or taped out real designs, not only simulated/verified them. Candidates from well-known/blue-chip employers preferred.
