Review mechanical engineering evaluation tasks, reference outputs and grading rubrics for AI systems, checking calculations, design assumptions and CAD or simulation evidence against an ASME or ISO standards track. You need 5+ years as a mechanical engineer or engineering lead at a Fortune 500 or major industrial, automotive, aerospace or manufacturing company.

Summary written by AI from the original listing.

About the role

Role Overview

  • Mercor is seeking senior mechanical engineering professionals to review evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in Fortune 500 enterprise product design and manufacturing contexts.
  • The workflows are calibrated to the design complexity, safety stakes, and production scale of Fortune 500 and large industrial manufacturers.
  • This role reviews worlds on two standards tracks: a US track (ASME) and an International track (ISO). Experts qualified in either or both tracks are encouraged to apply.
  • Reviewers assess enterprise mechanical engineering scenarios, reference outputs, and grading rubrics that capture how senior F500 engineering leaders think.

Key Responsibilities

  • Review mechanical engineering tasks, reference outputs, and supporting artifacts for technical accuracy, realism, and professional complexity.
  • Independently check engineering calculations, design assumptions, analyses, and conclusions against the applicable standards track.
  • Review design documentation and relevant CAD or simulation evidence to identify errors, omissions, and inconsistent assumptions.
  • Evaluate grading rubrics for clarity, specificity, and whether they distinguish sound professional engineering judgment from generic textbook recall.
  • Provide clear written feedback and verify that revisions resolve the identified issues.

Ideal Qualifications

  • 5+ years working as a mechanical engineer or engineering lead at a Fortune 500 or major industrial, automotive, aerospace, or manufacturing company (GE, Boeing, Caterpillar, Ford, Honeywell, Siemens, Bosch, Rolls-Royce, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries).
  • Direct ownership of large-scale product designs, manufacturing processes, or engineering certification programs.
  • Fluency in enterprise mechanical engineering tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of how safety standards, regulatory certification (ASME, ISO, FAA, FDA), and cross-functional design governance actually work.
  • A professional engineering credential (US PE or an international equivalent such as CEng or EUR ING) and prior rubric, engineering-training curriculum, or design documentation authorship are a plus.
