About Mercor
Mercor is defining the future of work. We partner with leading AI labs and enterprises to provide the human intelligence essential to AI development.
Our vast talent network trains frontier AI models in the same way teachers teach students: by sharing knowledge, experience, and context that can't be captured in code alone. Today, more than 30,000 experts in our network collectively earn over $2 million a day.
Mercor is creating a new category of work where expertise powers AI advancement. Achieving this requires an ambitious, fast-paced and deeply committed team. You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society.
Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in-person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices.
You'll be the force multiplier for a security team that needs to operate like it's three times its size. There are secrets to migrate to Vault, detection rules to write, SAST/DAST pipelines to tune, lifecycle workflows to automate, and security tooling to integrate across every surface. This is not a DevOps role with a security label. You'll build the automation layer that makes a lean security team operate at multiples of its size - writing the pipelines, integrations, and tooling that eliminate manual work and accelerate every security function.
We use AI heavily in our own security work. You should be comfortable building alongside AI code-gen tools, using LLMs to accelerate development, and treating automation as the default answer to any repeatable process. If you see a manual workflow and immediately think about how to script it, you'll fit in here.
