Mercor is partnering with a leading AI research lab to support a Frontier Code Agents project. Contributors help evaluate and improve frontier AI coding models through structured technical assessments. The work focuses on realistic data engineering workflows and model evaluation.

Use frontier AI coding agents to complete and evaluate complex data engineering tasks. Review model-generated implementations involving ETL pipelines, data warehouses, analytics platforms, and distributed data systems. Identify bugs, edge cases, scalability issues, and failure modes.

Apply professional engineering judgment to realistic data engineering scenarios. Sprint based project that runs in 12-24 hour stretches based on client requirement. 2+ years of skilled data engineering experience. ~ Experience building ETL pipelines, data warehouses, analytics platforms, or distributed data systems. ~ Regular use of AI coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, or similar tools. ~ Ability to evaluate model-generated data infrastructure and pipeline implementations. ~ Experience operating large-scale data platforms is preferred. #
