Job description

##

  • 1\. Role Overview

Mercor is collaborating with a leading AI research lab to develop a next-generation evaluation dataset for frontier AI models. We are seeking experts with advanced domain knowledge across diverse fields to design extremely challenging prompts that cannot be solved by existing AI systems without internet search or browsing capabilities. The goal is to create a benchmark dataset that pushes the limits of current AI reasoning and retrieval. This is a short-term research engagement with significant impact on AI evaluation. ##

  • 2\. Key Responsibilities
  • Create original, expert-level prompts that require tool use (e.g., search, browse, or code execution). - Ensure prompts are objective, self-contained, and yield clear, unambiguous answers. - Test prompts against advanced AI models and document failures / successes. - Provide reasoning steps and solutions for each prompt. - Classify prompts into subject domains for dataset organization. - Collaborate with reviewers for expert validation and prompt refinement. ##
  • 3\. Ideal Qualifications
  • Advanced academic or professional expertise in a specialized subject (STEM, law, finance, history, cultural studies, etc.). - Strong ability to design precise, high-difficulty questions requiring deep knowledge and external references. - Experience in academic research, benchmarking, or test question design preferred. - Attention to detail and ability to provide concise reasoning explanations. - Familiarity with AI models and their limitations is a plus. ##
  • 4\. More About the Opportunity
  • Remote and asynchronous — set your own hours. - Expected commitment : ~10–20 hours / week. - Project duration : ~2 months, with possible extensions based on dataset needs. - Opportunity to contribute to high-impact AI safety and evaluation research. ##
  • 5\. Compensation & Contract Terms
  • Competitive hourly compensation based on expertise. - Independent contractor engagement. - Payments for services rendered processed weekly via Stripe Connect. ##
  • 6\. Application Process
  • Submit your resume or CV highlighting your subject matter expertise. - Complete a brief questionnaire about your background and areas of specialization. - Selected applicants may be asked to draft a short test prompt. - You’ll receive follow-up within a few days regarding next steps. ##
  • 7\. About Mercor
  • Mercor is a talent marketplace that connects top experts with leading AI labs and research organizations. - Our investors include Benchmark, General Catalyst, Adam D’Angelo, Larry Summers, and Jack Dorsey. - Thousands of professionals across domains like law, creatives, engineering, and research have joined Mercor to work on frontier projects shaping the next era of AI.
