Mercor

Pay: $50 – $60/hour
Commitment: Hourly, ~40 h/week
Field: Other Engineering

Role Overview:

Mercor is looking for mechanical and CAD engineers with 2-3 years of professional experience, or currently enrolled postgrad engineering students, to support a research project with a leading AI lab. You will work through real engineering design workflows on your own Mac to help benchmark and improve cutting-edge AI models.

Qualifications:

  • Required: You must own a MacBook or Mac with an Apple M-series chip or Intel processor, running macOS 15 or higher. Applicants without a Mac cannot be considered.
  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, with hands-on 3D modeling and drafting experience
  • Proficiency in Mac-compatible CAD tools such as Fusion 360, Onshape, Shapr3D, or FreeCAD; familiarity with GD&T and engineering drawings is a plus
  • Currently pursuing or recently completed Masters studies, or have 2-3 years of relevant experience + Bachelors from a prestigious institution
  • Ability to clearly explain your engineering decisions while you work
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Job Details:

  • Part-time commitment of approximately 10-20 hours per week
  • Responsibilities include completing and narrating real mechanical design and CAD tasks on your Mac to create high-quality training data for advanced AI models
  • Clearly structured responsibilities without the high pressure typically found in internships or full-time consulting roles
  • Immediate start preferred

Application and Onboarding Process:

  • Submit your resume, followed by a brief (3-minute) conversation with our AI interviewer to assess research and reasoning skills
  • Complete a brief paid assessment to further evaluate your fit for the role
  • You will receive follow-up communication within a few days regarding your application status and next steps
