At the published rate, 10 hours a week would be about $650–$1,230 and 20 hours about $1,300–$2,460 before tax. Hours depend on the project, so treat this as a ceiling, not a promise.
Openings
25 openings means this is a high-volume project. You are not competing for one seat: if you pass the test, there is room for you.
Location
Open worldwide in the countries the employer accepts. Payments usually go out through services like PayPal or Wise, so check one of them works in your country.
Credentials
The listing asks for a PhD. Put it in the first line of your profile: reviewers screen for it before anything else.
Timing
This listing is new today. Projects can close once they have enough people, so it is worth applying while it is open.
Test tips for engineers
  • Check units, loads and code references in every answer.
  • Sketch the system or structure before judging the AI's description of it.
  • Name the standard (Eurocode, ASCE, IEC…) you are applying.
