About the role

Mercor is hiring a Product Engineer to own the Studio Platform end-to-end, including React frontend and backend data pipelines, to enable data generation, QA review, and delivery for leading AI labs. The role emphasizes both engineering craft and product impact, shipping scalable systems and intuitive interfaces for contributors, SPLs, and engineers.

Responsibilities

  • Own the Studio platform across the full stack — from contributor-facing and operator-facing React interfaces to the backend APIs and pipelines driving data ingestion, QA review, and AI lab delivery.
  • Lead engineering best practices across the team, setting the bar for frontend architecture, component design, and performance, and establishing patterns that others can build on reliably.
  • Build the foundational layer that other teams depend on to support new data types, task formats, and customer configurations quickly and without rework.
  • Ship high-leverage product features that improve throughput and quality across our core data generation and delivery pipelines.
  • Translate ambiguous requirements into well-scoped technical solutions through close collaboration with Applied AI researchers, product, design, and operations.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of fullstack engineering experience building and shipping production software.
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science or a related technical degree such as Electrical Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Engineering, Information Systems or Statistics.
  • Deep proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript (React + Next.js) and a strong grasp of frontend architecture, state management, and design patterns.
  • Solid backend experience in Python and/or Node.js — experience designing and building relational databases, REST APIs, and async task infrastructure.
  • Strong design sense and empathy for end-users; you hold a high bar for usability.
  • Experience with complex, high-throughput systems — pipelines, large data volumes, or multi-tenant architectures.
  • High ownership mindset; able to navigate ambiguity and drive projects from design through delivery.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to articulate technical and product tradeoffs clearly.
