The work spans everything from building APIs and infrastructure to training and deploying models, always tied closely to core product outcomes. You’ll collaborate with product engineers and operations to deliver systems that directly impact how companies source talent and how candidates find opportunities You will: Research, train, and productionize ML models for engagement prediction, scoring, search Build backend infrastructure and APIs to serve ML models reliably at scale. Run experiments, analyze results, and iterate quickly to improve both models and product performance. Work cross-functionally with Operations and Product to translate business needs into model-driven solutions. Wear many hats: from backend engineer to applied ML practitioner to product problem-solver. What We’re Looking For Strong backend engineering skills (ex. Python/Django or similar) plus a solid foundation in applied ML and statistics. Proven experience shipping production systems or ML-driven products end-to-end. High ownership and comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-changing environments. Generalist mindset: willing to flex between backend, modeling, data pipelines, and product problem-solving. Why Mercor Impact: Your work powers how the world’s leading AI labs train and test their models. Learning: Get early insights into frontier model capabilities months before the market. Growth: Work on both infrastructure and research-adjacent projects with fast paths to ownership.
