About the role

Mercor is seeking expert computer scientists to author and review high-quality academic assessment content for an AI research initiative. You will create and verify rigorous CS questions, evaluate solution quality, and help establish gold-standard benchmarks used to advance AI capabilities. Role includes writing original questions or verifying pre-written ones, rating difficulty, and providing references. Remote, asynchronous work with weekly payments and independent contractor terms.

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.
