We are looking for an engineer with expertise in HR and office systems to help write API prompts for human resources use cases.

Your experience designing and supporting digital infrastructure for human resources, internal operations, and workplace coordination will ensure each prompt and response reflects how real-world engineers help teams manage people, processes, and administrative systems. You’ll help shape how AI understands employee lifecycle workflows, office support tools, and productivity systems—ideally including experience integrating HRIS platforms, automating internal workflows, or managing system access controls via APIs.

You are a good fit if you:

• Have over 3+ years of professional experience supporting or developing tools for HR operations, internal IT systems, or office administration workflows

• Have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Business Technology, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)

• Are currently based in the U.S., Canada, New Zealand, UK, or Australia

• Have worked on platforms such as Workday, BambooHR, ADP, SAP SuccessFactors, or Microsoft 365

• Have experience with supporting workflows related to employee onboarding, leave tracking, document automation, calendar management, or digital form processing

• Can clearly document systems and communicate effectively with both HR teams and end users

Role Highlights

• Flexible workload: 10–20 hours per week, with potential to increase to 40 hours.

• Minimum duration: 1–2 months, with potential for extension.

Role Start Date

• This role will begin in mid to late-August with applications reviewed on a rolling basis.

Interview Process

• You will take an AI interview where you will be asked questions about your background in HR systems, administrative tooling, and internal process support.

• You will share your screen and write a detailed prompt to generate an AI response about a scenario such as automating an onboarding checklist, syncing employee data, or troubleshooting calendar integration for executive support.

• You will evaluate and compare LLM outputs to determine which response is more effective and accurate.

• Applicants will be selected based on their performance in the AI interview and on the accuracy and quality of their evaluations.

We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.

Contract and Payment Terms

• You will be engaged as an independent contractor.
• This is a fully remote role that can be completed on your own schedule.
• Projects can be extended, shortened, or concluded early depending on needs and performance.
• Your work at Mercor will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution.
• Payments are weekly on Stripe or Wise based on services rendered.
