About The Job
Mercor connects elite creative and technical talent with leading AI research labs. Headquartered in San Francisco, our investors include Benchmark, General Catalyst, Peter Thiel, Adam D'Angelo, Larry Summers, and Jack Dorsey.
Position: Software Engineer, Go — Codebase Q&A
Type: Contract
Compensation: $130 per task
Location: Remote
Role Responsibilities
Select tasks from a pre-validated pool of Go repositories, each pinned to a specific git commit and arriving with an engineering question, positive and negative rubrics, foils, and a golden solution.
Explore the repository until you genuinely understand the subsystem in question, including the relevant PR or issue history.
Rewrite the task's question to challenge frontier coding agents while ensuring it remains well-defined and fairly answerable.
Adjust rubrics and foils to reward correct reasoning and reject plausible-but-wrong answers.
Run the full validation loop in Studio — Check, Golden, Run, Analyze — and iterate until every stage passes.
Document your work in the task README and submit for expert review, addressing reviewer feedback on returned tasks.
Qualifications
Must-Have
3+ years of professional software engineering experience with substantial production Go.
Ability to navigate a large, unfamiliar Go codebase and explain runtime behavior.
Fluency in Go concurrency, interfaces, module boundaries, and the standard library.
Precise written English for crafting questions and rubrics.
Comfortable with git at commit level, containerized environments, and command-line tooling.
Preferred
Experience with distributed systems, networking, storage engines, or Kubernetes-ecosystem tooling.
Application Process (Takes 20–30 mins to complete)
Submit your resume or relevant technical background to get started.
Qualified applicants may be asked to complete a brief technical assessment or provide additional information.
