Role Overview

Mercor is seeking experienced Bilingual Stem Experts to support high-quality content across a range of AI training initiatives. This role involves creating image-based STEM training examples — finding relevant images, writing prompts, and crafting ideal model responses — in both English and your native language.

We are looking for people who demonstrate strong scientific and technical reasoning, clear written communication in two languages, and a meticulous eye for accuracy. This role requires consistent engagement and reliability over time.

Languages we are hiring for: Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, French, Chinese, and Russian.

Key Responsibilities

• Create high-quality training examples consisting of an image, a STEM-related prompt, and an ideal response
• Solve problems in non-math STEM fields (physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, computer science, etc.) with clear, step-by-step explanations
• Interpret and analyze charts, diagrams, graphs, infographics, and data visualizations with precision
• Write prompts and responses that sound natural and fluent in your native language — not translated from English
• Ensure proper use of scientific notation, technical terminology, and formatting conventions
• Identify and correct errors in logic, reasoning, or factual content within source material
• Follow style guides, system prompts, and formatting requirements with precision
• Source appropriate images (textbook pages, scientific diagrams, charts, lab results, data visualizations) that meet project quality standards

Ideal Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree (or higher) in a STEM field such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related discipline (excluding pure Mathematics)
• Bilingual proficiency in English and one of the following languages: Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, French, Chinese, or Russian (native-level proficiency in at least one required)
• Strong ability to communicate scientific reasoning clearly in written form across both languages
• Demonstrated experience with STEM problem-solving at a college level or above
• Ability to read and interpret charts, diagrams, and data visualizations accurately
• Extremely high attention to detail and ability to catch subtle errors in reasoning and factual content
• Familiarity with LaTeX notation and standard scientific formatting conventions is a plus
• Ability to work independently while maintaining consistent quality standards
• Reliable availability and consistent engagement

More About the Opportunity

• Minimum commitment: 20 hours per week
• Ongoing, consistent engagement expected
• Work involves creating and refining high-volume STEM content in a multilingual context

Application Process

• Submit your resume highlighting relevant STEM and language experience
• Complete the attached required interview and assessment
• We aim to follow up within a few days with next steps
