Official role description

Mercor is seeking experienced German Linguistic Experts to join a cutting-edge AI research project in partnership with a leading research lab. This role centers on evaluating how effectively a large language model (LLM) performs in French-language tasks and on curating high-quality French linguistic data to train and improve the model’s understanding and generation capabilities.

Key Responsibilities: • Evaluate the quality and accuracy of LLM-generated German text across various use cases (e.g., translation, summarization, dialogue, grammar correction). • Edit, refine, or rewrite German content to ensure it meets linguistic, cultural, and literary standards. • Annotate German texts for grammatical, syntactic, semantic, and stylistic features. • Identify model errors and linguistic shortcomings; collaborate with AI researchers to improve LLM performance in German. • Provide detailed literary and linguistic feedback to guide ongoing model training and evaluation efforts. • * *

You’re a strong fit if you have: • Native or near-native fluency in German, with excellent command of grammar, syntax, and stylistics. • Professional experience in literary editing, copywriting, criticism, or NLP-related linguistic annotation in German. • A strong understanding of literary complexity, tone, and genre-specific conventions, as well as regional language variations. • Interest in AI, translation technologies, or LLM-driven language research (preferred but not required). • Impeccable attention to detail and ability to identify subtle translation errors or unnatural phrasing. • Strong written communication skills and experience working with remote, distributed teams. • * *

Why Join • Contribute to cutting-edge AI research in partnership with a leading research lab. • Work on high-impact projects that directly support the development of advanced AI systems. • Gain hands-on exposure to state-of-the-art AI research and development. • Join a fast-moving project where your expertise and judgment can have a meaningful impact.
