Job description

Role Overview

• Mercor is seeking senior social work professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in large human services and clinical social work contexts.

• The workflows are calibrated to the case complexity, stakeholder sensitivity, and client-outcome stakes of large public agencies, healthcare systems, and community-based organizations.

• Contributors design social work scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior clinicians and case management leaders think.

Key Responsibilities

• Construct social work scenarios spanning complex case assessment, multi-stakeholder care coordination, and crisis intervention or mandated reporting cycles.

• Build tasks across clinical social work practice, child and family welfare, healthcare/medical social work, substance use and mental health services, and community-based case management.

• Develop practice scenarios involving tools such as electronic health/case record systems (EHR, CCWIS), risk and needs assessment instruments, and interagency referral platforms.

• Apply social work frameworks (biopsychosocial assessment, trauma-informed care, strengths-based practice, NASW Code of Ethics) and produce reference case plans, clinical documentation, and interdisciplinary team communications.

• Author rubrics that distinguish authentic clinical and ethical judgment from generic textbook or policy-manual recall.

Ideal Qualifications

• 5+ years working as a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW/LMSW) or senior case management professional at a hospital system, child welfare agency, behavioral health organization, or large nonprofit.

• Direct ownership of clinical caseloads, family/child welfare cases, or program-level service delivery.

• Fluency in social work practice standards and case management tooling, plus understanding of how mandated reporting, interagency coordination, and ethical/legal compliance actually work.

• Prior rubric, clinical training curriculum, or case documentation authorship is a plus.
