DESCRIPTION

Mercor is seeking senior civic and public administration professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in large government and public-sector contexts. The workflows are calibrated to the regulatory complexity, stakeholder scale, and public accountability stakes of federal, state, and major municipal government operations. Contributors design public-sector scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior government and civic leaders think. Key Responsibilities Construct public-sector scenarios spanning large-scale budget appropriations, multi-agency coordination, and complex regulatory or legislative review cycles at federal, state, and municipal levels. Build civic tasks across public policy analysis, constituent services delivery, intergovernmental relations, public communications, and regulatory compliance. Develop public administration scenarios involving tools such as government ERP/case management systems, public records platforms, GIS systems, and constituent relationship management (CRM) tools used across agencies. Apply public administration frameworks (policy impact analysis, cost-benefit analysis, administrative rulemaking, stakeholder engagement models) and produce reference policy briefs, agency strategies, and executive/legislative communications. Author rubrics that distinguish authentic public-sector judgment from generic bureaucratic or textbook recall. Ideal
