Mercor is seeking experienced English Linguistic Experts to join a cutting‑edge AI research project in partnership with a leading research lab.

• Strong understanding of linguistic nuances, regional variations, tone, and context-appropriate English usage.
• Excellent ability to identify subtle grammatical errors, awkward phrasing, ambiguity, and unnatural language.
• Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies is preferred but not required.
• Strong attention to detail, analytical judgment, and written communication skills.
• Ability to work independently in a distributed, remote environment.

Why Join
