Community Manager

About Mercor

Mercor is training models that predict how well someone will perform on a job better than a human can. We use our platform to source, vet, and onboard expert contractors who help train AI models in a wide variety of domains. Our technology is so effective it’s used by all of the top 5 AI labs.

We scaled from $1–500M in revenue run rate in the last 17 months, making us the fastest-growing company in the world. Our growth is accelerating: we averaged 11% week-over-week growth in July, 18% in August, and 19% in September. The team is small, we remain profitable, and we can’t hire exceptional people as quickly as revenue is growing.
