Official role description

About the Role Mercor is partnering with a leading AI lab to build gold-standard legal reasoning data from a real deposition record. We're hiring one experienced civil litigator to work through a full rough deposition transcript and author the reference answers that AI models will be measured against.

What You'll Do • Read a rough deposition transcript of roughly 250 pages in full • Write gold answers to about 100 questions about the record, citing support by page and line • Complete eight short litigation tasks drawn from the same transcript • Prepare all gold answers without AI assistance, and note anywhere an AI tool was used only for navigating the transcript • Own every answer end to end: one litigator is responsible for the full set, so judgment stays consistent across all questions and tasks

You're a Good Fit If You • Are a practicing civil litigator who has personally taken and defended depositions (50+ depositions preferred) • Practice in commercial, contract or personal injury litigation • Are comfortable working from a long rough transcript and citing it precisely by page and line • Hold a J.D. and are licensed to practice law in the U.S. (Minnesota admission is not required; the questions turn on the record, not on state procedure)

Role Highlights • Fully remote; must be based in the United States • Role starts immediately, and applications are reviewed on a rolling basis

Mercor eligibility fields: Eligible work locations: United States.
