Job Details
Mercor is collaborating with a leading AI lab to engage Electronics experts as independent contractors. You’ll turn real shopper briefs into clear, confident product picks—phones, laptops, monitors, TVs/home theater, audio (headphones/earbuds/soundbars/AVR), gaming (PC/consoles/accessories), cameras/lenses, smart home, and networking.
Your job is to make great buys obvious for a wide range of budgets and ecosystems. This is a short-term, project-based opportunity with full flexibility to set your own hours.
We’re seeking buyer-facing curators (retail/product specialists, category managers, informed reviewers)— not firmware engineers or repair techs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Evaluate products using shopper-relevant criteria.
- Write concise, objective recommendations with links, specs, pros/cons, trade-offs.
- Compare options across price tiers and retailers.
- Check compatibility and flag common pitfalls.
- Produce structured comparisons and brief buyer’s guides.
- Review and refine AI-suggested picks; correct mistakes, annotate gaps, and add missing context.
- Source from reputable, authorized retailers; avoid grey-market/counterfeit.
Qualifications:
- Hands-on background: specialty retail or category roles.
- Proven ability to translate specs into buyer decisions.
- Comfortable cross-shopping multiple retailers and price tiers.
- Sound judgment on safety and compliance.
More About the Opportunity:
- Remote and asynchronous — work on your own schedule.
- Flexible weekly commitment.
- Short-term and project-based, with potential for ongoing work.
Compensation & Contract Terms:
- $40–$80/hour (USD).
- Payments for services rendered issued weekly via Stripe Connect.
- Independent contractor classification; set your own hours.
