What this actually is
You bring your specialist expertise to AI evaluation. The shape of the work varies but the pattern is the same: review outputs, rate quality, write prompts, flag errors. The platform title (Civil Engineering Expert) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

Role Overview
- Mercor is seeking senior civil engineering professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in large-scale infrastructure and construction contexts.
- The workflows are calibrated to the design complexity, public safety stakes, and regulatory scope of major infrastructure projects and large public/private construction programs.
- This role builds worlds on two standards tracks: an International track (Eurocodes and ISO) and a US track (ASCE, ACI, AISC, AASHTO). Experts qualified in either or both tracks are encouraged to apply.
- Contributors design civil engineering scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior civil engineering leaders think.
Key Responsibilities
- Construct civil engineering scenarios spanning large-scale infrastructure design cycles, multi-stakeholder permitting and regulatory review, and complex construction management or public works processes.
- Build tasks across structural design and analysis, transportation and highway engineering, water resources and environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, and construction project management.
- Develop engineering scenarios involving tools such as AutoCAD Civil 3D, Revit, STAAD.Pro/ETABS, HEC-RAS, and enterprise project management platforms used on major infrastructure programs.
- Apply civil engineering methodologies (structural load analysis, geotechnical site assessment, hydrology/hydraulic modeling) to the standards track a world targets (US: ASCE 7, ACI 318, AISC 360, AASHTO LRFD; International: Eurocodes EN 1990-1998 and ISO), and produce reference design plans, engineering calculations, and stakeholder/regulatory-facing technical narratives.
- Author rubrics that distinguish authentic civil engineering judgment from generic textbook or coursework-level recall.
Ideal Qualifications
- 5+ years working as a civil engineer or engineering lead
- Direct ownership of large-scale infrastructure designs, permitting processes, or construction project delivery.
- Fluency in civil engineering tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of how regulatory approvals, environmental review (NEPA or an international equivalent), and public agency oversight actually work.
- A recognized professional engineering credential is strongly preferred (US PE, or an international equivalent such as CEng, EUR ING, or P.Eng); prior rubric, engineering-training curriculum, or design documentation authorship is a plus.
