Engineering Challenge · 2026
Meet Swarm.
200 ants. One colony. Infinite possibilities.
Not a recruiting email

Hey — this isn't a pitch to join Moment. We're not going to tell you how great our culture is or ask for your resume.

We built something we think is genuinely fun, and we wanted to share it with the dev community. This is Swarm — our first public engineering challenge, open to anyone who loves a good puzzle.

The Challenge

A colony of 200 ants communicates only through pheromone trails. Write a program in a custom assembly-like language that tells the ants how to find food, lay trails, and coordinate.

Whoever collects the highest percentage of food across maps wins a trip to Maui. Simple as that.

  • 5 nights at Four Seasons Maui

This is a community challenge from the team at Moment. We build operating systems for investment management — but right now we just want to watch some ants find food. No strings attached.
