About this Role

Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced AI models.

A leading AI lab is building models that sharpen and upscale video, and it needs people who can tell, frame by frame, whether the result actually holds up. We are assembling a small group of reviewers with a rigorously trained eye, the kind that catches the compression artifacts, noise, aliasing, and softness that most viewers never notice. If you have spent years judging image quality at a professional level, this is that same skill applied to AI output.

Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced AI models. A leading AI lab is building models that sharpen and upscale video, and it needs people who can tell, frame by frame, whether the result actually holds up. We are assembling a small group of reviewers with a rigorously trained eye, the kind that catches the compression artifacts, noise, aliasing, and softness that most viewers never notice. If you have spent years judging image quality at a professional level, this is that same skill applied to AI output. This is a part-time W-2 employment position with Cincinnatus LLC, with the opportunity to be placed at a leading AI Lab as part of their extended workforce. We would love to hear from you if you have worked as any of the following: Visual Effects (VFX) Supervisor: the authority on final image quality, with an elite eye for pixel-level flaws, grain-structure inconsistencies, and visual artifacts. Rendering Supervisor: used to running dailies and owning visual quality down to the pixel. Lighting Supervisor, Lead, or Artist: a specialist in illumination and the building blocks of digital video and cinematic motion. Colorist: deep experience in color grading, artifact detection, and visual consistency across a sequence. Director of Photography (DP) or Cinematographer: skilled at framing and at judging sharpness and detail in high-resolution images. Effects or Surfacing Artist: strong command of textures, materials, and complex visual simulation. High-End Photographer: a feel for lighting, depth of field, and color artifacts in high-resolution captures. Director: especially with experience directing crowd and background action. Digital Projectionist: a trained eye for final-output quality, screen-level fidelity, and visual anomalies. Fluent in English. 7 to 10 years of experience in high-end visual evaluation across film, VFX, or professional photography. Training from a university or program with a highly respected film, visual effects, or digital media program. Reliable access to a 4K-resolution monitor for precise, pixel-level review. AI proficiency: familiarity with AI tools and workflows, including the ability to generate your own visual samples for testing and comparison. The ability to translate complex visual details into clear, precise language that can be captured in data captions and evaluation templates. Cincinnatus LLC is an enterprise staffing company that partners with leading technology companies to source and employ highly skilled professionals for contingent and contract-based opportunities. Cincinnatus serves as the employer of record for these engagements, providing W-2 employment, payroll, benefits, and compliance, while placing employees directly within client teams to work on high-impact initiatives. Roles hired through Cincinnatus are not project-based or freelance engagements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this for freelancers or full-time employees?

Both. Mercor tries to match you with clients who want long-term contractors. Unlike other platforms where you log in and grab small tasks, Mercor matches you with one company for a steady role (e.g., 'Python Tutor for 3 months').

I'm not comfortable on camera. Can I still apply?

No. The application requires a video interview with an AI avatar. The AI asks you questions about your resume, and the video is shared with potential clients to prove your communication skills.

Does it cost money to join?

No. You should never pay to join these platforms. Mercor makes money by charging the client a fee on top of your hourly rate.

What does the work actually look like?

It is practical, hands-on data work. You might be recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. The tasks are designed to be short and distinct—typically 5-60 minutes per task.

How flexible is the schedule?

Extremely. This is true "log in and work" flexibility. You can usually work for 20 minutes or 4 hours depending on your availability. There are rarely minimum hour requirements, making it ideal for side income.

Is there an interview?

Usually, no. Hiring for these roles is almost entirely based on passing an automated assessment or "qualification" task. If you pass the test, you get access to the work.

How soon will I start?

Important: Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue. Applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You will only start working when a specific client (like a major AI lab) selects your profile. This matching process can take weeks.
