Machine Learning Engineer, Frontier Data Products

About Mercor Mercor's mission is to organize human intelligence to power the AI economy. We're a leading AI data company, building the layer between human expertise and frontier models. Millions of domain experts on the platform are paid over $4 million per day to train frontier AI models. Mercor's APEX benchmark family measures AI's real-world impact on professional work. Mercor Enterprise brings this same infrastructure to Fortune 500 companies: helping companies capture how their best people actually work, translating that expertise directly back into agents. Mercor is creating a new category of work where expertise powers AI advancement. Achieving this requires an ambitious, fast-paced and deeply committed team. You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society. Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in-person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices. About the Role: Frontier AI companies are increasingly bottlenecked on expert judgment — capturing it reliably, validating it at scale, and turning it into durable model behavior. This role sits at the center of that problem. You'll build the ML systems that power Mercor's Frontier Data Products: the infrastructure that scores, validates, and improves complex work products where correctness is rarely binary and labels are often noisy, delayed, or disputed. A single job can stay live for days, interleaving model inference, automated checks, expert review, disagreement resolution, and feedback loops. Your work determines how models reason over ambiguous inputs, when they should defer to humans, how quality is measured, and how feedback compounds into better systems over time. This is applied ML product engineering under real production constraints — incomplete ground truth, shifting requirements, latency and cost tradeoffs, and workflows where a silent model failure corrupts the final
