About the work
We are building high-fidelity simulated work environments used to evaluate and improve AI agents on real marketing work. Each environment reproduces a marketing org's actual tool surface — email, storage, CRM, project management, social media management, web analytics, AEO/SEO, ads, CMS, product analytics and support — populated with realistic documents, dashboards, personas and deliberately planted problems.
You will help design and pressure-test the Creator and Influencer environments: the briefs, the artifacts, the judgment calls a strong practitioner would make, and the errors a weaker one would miss.
What you will do
- Design task briefs drawn from work you have actually done running creator programs, including what the task is really testing — the planted issue and the decision a strong practitioner should reach
- Specify the documents, dashboards, personas and tool states a realistic version of that task requires
- Write or review the reference answer and the criteria that separate a strong response from a plausible-but-wrong one
- Review AI agent attempts and judge them against your own standard
Tasks span the capabilities we measure: diagnosing what happened from messy or conflicting data, prioritizing and making tradeoffs, planning and executing, QA and reconciliation, triage and escalation, research and evaluation, reporting, and orchestrating multi-step work across several tools.
Creator & Influencer scope
Creator discovery and evaluation, influencer program decisions, seeding and campaign execution, usage rights and disclosure judgment, and share-of-voice contribution.
Who we are looking for
- Hands-on practitioner experience running creator or influencer programs — you have selected, negotiated with and measured creators yourself
- Comfortable with creator platforms, paid amplification through creator handles, and the disclosure rules that govern the work
- Prior experience building AI training environments, RL environments or simulated case studies is strongly preferred
- Rubric Academy or Rubric Bootcamp certification is strongly preferred
- Clear written reasoning — much of the value is in explaining why a decision is right

Common questions
Does Mercor's application require an on-camera interview?
Yes, every applicant records a video interview with an AI interviewer that asks questions about your resume. Clients review that recording to judge communication skills before matching, so there's no way to apply without going on camera.
Does it cost money to apply to Mercor?
No, applying and joining Mercor is free. Mercor's revenue comes from a fee it charges the client on top of your hourly rate, not from applicants. Treat any request for payment to join as a red flag.
What does task-based AI training work look like?
Practical, hands-on data work: recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. Tasks are designed to be short and distinct, typically 5 to 60 minutes each.
What does Business work look like for a Marketing Expert — Creator & Influencer (AI Agent Environments)?
Tasks here are scoped to Business, not generic labeling. As a Marketing Expert — Creator & Influencer (AI Agent Environments), expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Business) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Business background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Expert is named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with this, expect the screening process to test for it directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $60–$100/hr, an hourly rate. The range reflects experience level and negotiated terms, not a placeholder, so where you land in it depends on your background and the assessment. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to Mercor's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.
Do I need a Master's to qualify?
This role lists a master's degree as a requirement. In practice, the domain assessment is the real gate. If you can pass it, the degree is usually secondary. However, some platforms verify credentials formally, so list your actual qualifications accurately on your profile.
How soon will I start working after applying to Mercor?
Not immediately. Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue, so applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You start working only once a specific client, like a major AI lab, selects your profile, and that matching process can take weeks.
