About the role

AI Safety Experts — English & Indonesian (Train AI Models Part Time!)RemoteUp to $400,000/ year Prompt Engineer AI Researcher Cyber Security Researcher Cyber Security Engineer Penetration Tester Security Analyst Artificial Intelligence Engineerhackajob is partnering with Mercor to fill this position. Create a profile to be automatically considered for this role—and others that match your experience. Mercor

Location: RemoteFluent Language Skills Required: English & Indonesian. Native fluency in English and Indonesian is required for this position. Why This Role Exists: At Mercor, we believe the safest AI is the one that's already been attacked — by us. We are assembling a red team for this project - human data experts who probe AI models with adversarial inputs, surface vulnerabilities, and generate the red team data that makes AI safer for our customers. This project involves reviewing AI outputs that touch on sensitive topics such as bias, misinformation, or harmful behaviors. All work is text-based, and participation in higher-sensitivity projects is optional and supported by clear guidelines and wellness resources. Before being exposed to any content, the topics will be clearly communicated.

What You'll Do:

Red team conversational AI models and agents: jailbreaks, prompt injections, misuse cases, bias exploitation, multi-turn manipulation
Generate high-quality human data: annotate failures, classify vulnerabilities, and flag systemic risks
Apply structure: follow taxonomies, benchmarks, and playbooks to keep testing consistent
Document reproducibly: produce reports, datasets, and attack cases customers can act onWho You Are:
You bring prior red teaming experience (AI adversarial work, cybersecurity, socio-technical probing)
You're curious and adversarial: you instinctively push systems to breaking points
You're structured: you use frameworks or benchmarks, not just random hacks
You're communicative: you explain risks clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders
You're adaptable: thrive on moving across projects and customers
Nice-to-Have Specialties:
Adversarial ML: jailbreak datasets, prompt injection, RLHF/DPO attacks, model extraction
Cybersecurity: penetration testing, exploit development, reverse engineering
Socio-technical risk: harassment/disinfo probing, abuse analysis, conversational AI testing
Creative probing: psychology, acting, writing for unconventional adversarial thinking

What Success Looks Like:

You uncover vulnerabilities automated tests miss
You deliver reproducible artifacts that strengthen customer AI systems
Evaluation coverage expands: more scenarios tested, fewer surprises in production
Mercor customers trust the safety of their AI because you've already probed it like an adversary
Why Join Mercor:

Build experience in human data-driven AI red teaming at the frontier of safety. Play a direct role in making AI systems more robust, safe, and trustworthy.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
