Research Scientist (BA/MS/PhD), AI Training (Remote, Contract)
Mercor · Remote, US
About the role
Mercor recruits research scientists (BA/MS/PhD) across the life and physical sciences for AI training and evaluation work: writing and reviewing expert-level questions, grading model reasoning about experimental design and analysis, and creating domain training data for frontier AI labs. Fully remote, contract-based, with flexible hours that fit around a research schedule; the advertised rate is $60-100 per hour depending on project and qualifications, with PhDs qualifying for the highest-rate projects. Requirements: a degree in a scientific field, strong critical reading, and excellent written English. A note from fundedscience: task supply on AI-training platforms fluctuates week to week, so treat this as supplemental income rather than a guaranteed paycheck; our full honest assessment is at fundedscience.com/guides/ai-training-work. Disclosure: the apply link is a referral link that supports this site at no cost to you; your pay is identical either way.
