## **About Mercor**

Mercor is training models that predict how well someone will perform on a job better than a human can. Similar to how a human would review a resume, conduct an interview, and decide who to hire, we automate all of those processes with LLMs. Our technology is so effective it’s used by all of the top 5 AI labs.

We crossed a $100M revenue run rate and have averaged 59% month over month growth for the last 6 months, making us the fastest growing company in the world. The team is small and we remain extremely profitable because we can’t hire great people as fast as revenue is growing.

## **About the Role**

As an Intelligent Identity Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and scaling Mercor’s identity and access management systems. You’ll help us transition from a fragmented, manually managed identity landscape to an automated, AI-driven system that enforces least privilege by default. This role is critical to enabling rapid growth while protecting our data, ensuring compliance, and streamlining access for employees, contractors, and partners.

You’ll work closely with Engineering, Infrastructure, Security, and Operations to build out and maintain centralized access controls, integrate with critical platforms like Okta, and pioneer AI-based automation for provisioning and deprovisioning.

## **What You’ll Do**

- Design and implement centralized identity systems that serve as a single source of truth for access control
    
- Enforce least privilege principles by default across internal and external platforms
    
- Integrate Okta with contractor identity workflows and critical applications
    
- Develop automation for identity lifecycle management (onboarding, offboarding, role changes) using AI-driven workflows
    
- Build scalable abstractions for internal platform identity and database access
    
- Ensure compliance with industry standards (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST) as identity systems evolve
    
- Continuously evaluate and improve identity toolchains, policies, and enforcement mechanisms
    
- Partner with customers to support external provisioning workflows to third-party apps
    
- Stay ahead of emerging trends in identity management, IAM automation, and AI in access provisioning

Intelligent Identity Engineer (US)

**Build the AI that builds teams**

Mercor trains large-scale models that predict on-the-job performance more accurately than any human interview. Our platform already powers hiring at the top AI labs, and we scaled from $1 M to $100 M ARR in 11 months—making us the fastest-growing AI startup on record.

**What you’ll do**

In your first year you’ll ship production code every week across Python- and Go-based services and a React/Next.js frontend that screens millions of candidates. You’ll design new microservices—real-time ranking, interview analytics, and payouts that move millions of dollars—while pairing with senior engineers to profile, test, and harden our LLM-powered agents. You’ll speak directly with users, turn pain points into specs, and own features end-to-end.

**You’ll thrive here if**

You have solid CS fundamentals and projects you’re proud to demo; you iterate fast—prototype, test, ship in days—and care as much about product polish as system performance. Curiosity about LLMs, retrieval, and ranking is a bonus; you’ll learn alongside engineers who have shipped at Jane Street, Citadel, Databricks, and Stripe.

The Mercor Team

Growth Data Scientist

### **About the Role**

Mercor is building the future of hiring through AI — and our product is where that future comes to life. As our Product Designer, you’ll define and own the look, feel, and flow of the Mercor platform, helping us scale a product that is both beautifully simple and increasingly powerful.

You’ll sit at the intersection of product design, graphic design, and front-end execution. From crafting high-fidelity designs to driving UX across complex workflows, you’ll be responsible for shaping how users — from top-tier talent to internal operators — experience Mercor.

This is a rare opportunity to establish the foundation for how design lives at one of the fastest-growing companies in the world.

### **Key Responsibilities**

- Own the design of core user journeys across the product, from initial flows to polished UI
    
- Collaborate with engineering and product to implement new features and refine existing ones
    
- Drive design decisions through a balance of taste, data, and user empathy
    
- Bring clarity to complex user experiences as our product evolves and scales
    
- Create and maintain a clean, modern visual language inspired by tools like Notion and powered by elements like Tailwind
    
- Work closely with our Head of Design to articulate and evolve Mercor’s design philosophy & culture
    
- Help tutorialize the product experience — ensuring that users know what to do without needing to be told
    

### **Qualifications**

- 4–8+ years in product design, ideally at fast-moving startups or high-bar product teams
    
- Strong portfolio that demonstrates both visual polish and UX depth
    
- Experience working closely with engineers and understanding implementation constraints
    
- Comfort jumping into product discussions, prioritization, and pushing features across the finish line
    
- Proven ability to operate autonomously and define design processes in ambiguous environments
    
- Passion for building products that are intuitive, beautiful, and a joy to use
    
- Excitement to work directly with founders and influence company-wide product direction
    
- Bonus: Experience building internal tools, marketplaces, or AI-driven products
    

At Mercor, we recognize that exceptional ability comes in all forms, a core philosophy on which we built our platform. Because of this, we welcome candidates from diverse backgrounds with unique experiences and transferable skill sets, even if they don’t meet all the preferred qualifications listed above.

### **About Mercor**

Mercor is training models that predict how well someone will perform on a job better than a human can. Similar to how a human would review a resume, conduct an interview, and decide who to hire, we automate all of those processes with LLMs. Our technology is so effective it’s used by all of the top 5 AI labs.

We crossed a $450M revenue run rate and have averaged 59% month-over-month growth for the last 6 months, making us the fastest-growing company in the world. The team is small, and we remain extremely profitable because we can’t hire great people as fast as revenue is growing.
