About the role

Mercor partners with a leading AI research organization to verify protein target assignments in large-scale bioactivity databases. You will review primary literature and apply scientific judgment to determine whether UniProt IDs reflect the proteins studied, feeding AI drug discovery pipelines. You will read papers and patents, flag errors, and propose correct UniProt accessions while documenting concise evidence-based notes for each case. Remote, part-time engagement in the U.S. market.

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.
