Mechanical Engineer Reviewer

Mercor

$90/hr Location not stated Full-time Up to 40 h/week Senior

Remote review of AI-generated mechanical engineering tasks and reference answers for technical accuracy, with written feedback on grading rubrics. Suits senior mechanical engineers with enterprise or industrial experience.

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.
