From the Mercor listing

Mercor is recruiting UK-based UX/UI Product Designers with technical web engineering experience for a research project with a leading frontier AI lab.

We are seeking experienced UX/UI designers who have worked on end-to-end digital product design and have a strong understanding of how modern web products are built. Candidates should be comfortable working across user experience, interface design, product flows, technical constraints, and design-to-engineering handoff.

This role is focused on digital product design, not brand identity or marketing-site-only design. Strong candidates should have experience designing functional web products such as e-commerce platforms, marketplaces, customer portals, booking flows, onboarding journeys, checkout experiences, or internal operations dashboards.

Ideal candidates have experience with one or more of the following:

  • UX/UI design for complex web products

  • E-commerce or marketplace user flows

  • Checkout, booking, onboarding, or account management experiences

  • Logged-in customer portals and self-serve platforms

  • Internal tools, admin panels, or operations dashboards

  • Product design systems and component-based design

  • Design-to-engineering handoff and implementation collaboration

  • Working closely with product managers, engineers, and data/analytics teams

  • Understanding front-end engineering constraints, responsive design, and web implementation tradeoffs

Preferred candidates have experience at one or more of the following companies:

  • Publicis Sapient

  • Red Badger

  • Valtech

  • Kin + Carta

  • ustwo

  • EPAM Continuum, specifically Experience Design / Product Design roles

  • Or another leading digital product, UX/UI, or product engineering studio

You'll help create, review, and evaluate high-quality UX/UI product scenarios, leveraging your experience in product design, web interfaces, user flows, and design-engineering collaboration.

The vetting process involves:

  • Resume and portfolio review

  • Short interview evaluating UX/UI product design and web product expertise

Please note: Candidates must be based in the United Kingdom and have the right to work in the United Kingdom. These are essential requirements for the role.

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

Requirements

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mercor for freelancers or full-time contractors?

Mercor places you with one client for a defined engagement, like 'Python Tutor for 3 months', rather than having you grab small tasks from a shared queue. Most roles function as steady contract work, not one-off gigs.

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.

Is AI training work the same as traditional consulting?

No. Instead of client deliverables, you're given complex scenarios to evaluate: grading the AI's logic, correcting its hallucinations, and supplying expert-level reasoning it doesn't have on its own. The job is closer to teaching than consulting.

Why do these AI training roles pay so much?

Because general knowledge isn't what's being tested. The model already knows the basics; what it needs is expertise on edge cases, the rare, difficult, highly technical judgment calls only a senior professional in the field would make correctly.

What does the day-to-day workload look like for elite-expert AI training roles?

Slow and deep, not fast and repetitive. A single task can take 45-60 minutes of researching citations or verifying complex calculations. Quality is what's being measured here, not throughput.

What does Business work look like for a UK-Based UX/UI Product Designers?

Tasks here are scoped to Business, not generic labeling. As a UK-Based UX/UI Product Designers, 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 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.

Can I apply from outside UK?

This specific role is restricted to UK. If you are outside these locations, applying is unlikely to result in an offer even if you pass the assessment. Check the full job description for any VPN or tax-residency caveats.

Is there an interview?

Yes. Short interview evaluating UX/UI product design and web product expertise

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.
