About this role

From the Mercor listing

  1. Role Overview

Mercor is collaborating with a leading AI lab on a large-scale AI training initiative focused on improving scientific reasoning, empirical analysis, and evidence-based explanation in advanced language models. We’re seeking experienced Science and Nature experts to contribute by creating and evaluating science-related prompts and responses.

This is a multilingual opportunity. We are specifically seeking experts who are fluent and professionally active in one or more of the following languages:

Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, Russian, German, Arabic, Thai, Tamil, or Hindi.

Importantly, we are not looking for translation ability alone. Candidates must have real-world professional experience working in scientific or applied natural science fields within their linguistic and cultural context — including familiarity with local research standards, scientific terminology, regulatory frameworks (where applicable), and professional norms.

  1. Key Responsibilities

Author realistic science prompts spanning biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science, earth science, ecology, and related disciplines

Review and revise AI-generated responses for factual accuracy, methodological soundness, clarity, and adherence to scientific standards

Write high-quality human-authored “gold” responses for complex, data-driven, or multi-step scientific questions

Create controlled prompt variations that test subtle differences in experimental setup, assumptions, environmental conditions, or theoretical framing

Evaluate outputs across different tones (technical, explanatory, educational) and instruction constraints

Identify model failure cases involving flawed reasoning, misuse of scientific principles, incorrect data interpretation, or unsupported claims

  1. Ideal Qualifications

Degree in a scientific discipline (e.g., Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Science, Earth Science, or a related field)

2+ years of professional work experience in scientific re

Requirements

  • Must be eligible to work in Remote
  • Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
  • Reliable high-speed internet connection
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
  • Demonstrated expertise in Writing

Why this role

Few outlets pay Writing specialists what the leading AI labs pay for direct judgment. At $40–$80/task, this Multilingual Science and Nature Expert role prices in the expertise itself, separate from hours billed or clients managed.

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 Writing work look like for a Multilingual Science and Nature Expert?

Tasks here are scoped to Writing, not generic labeling. As a Multilingual Science and Nature Expert, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Writing) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Writing background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.

What specific skills does this listing call for?

Arabic, Chinese, German, and Hindi are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening process to test for them directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.

How much does this specific role pay?

This listing is posted at $40–$80/task, a per-task 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.

Do I need to be fluent in Arabic, Chinese, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tamil, or Thai?

Yes. This role specifically requires Arabic, Chinese, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tamil, or Thai proficiency, on top of the English most AI training work assumes by default. If Arabic is not a language you're fluent in, this is not the right role. Filter for your native language to find better-matched listings.

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.

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.
