Mechanical Engineering Expert

DESCRIPTION

Mercor is seeking senior mechanical engineering professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in Fortune 500 enterprise product design and manufacturing contexts. The workflows are calibrated to the design complexity, safety stakes, and production scale of Fortune 500 and large industrial manufacturers. Contributors design enterprise mechanical engineering scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior F500 engineering leaders think. Key Responsibilities Construct enterprise mechanical engineering scenarios spanning complex product design cycles, multi-stakeholder design reviews, and manufacturing or regulatory certification processes at F500 accounts. Build tasks across F500 product design and CAD modeling, thermal/fluid systems analysis, structural and stress analysis, manufacturing process engineering, and reliability/failure analysis. Develop engineering scenarios involving tools such as SolidWorks, ANSYS, CATIA, MATLAB/Simulink, and enterprise PLM systems (Siemens Teamcenter, PTC Windchill) in F500 stacks. Apply enterprise mechanical engineering methodologies (FEA/CFD simulation, DFM/DFA principles, Six Sigma/DFSS, GD&T standards) and produce reference design specifications, engineering analyses, and executive-level technical narratives. Author rubrics that distinguish authentic enterprise mechanical engineering judgment from generic textbook or coursework-level recall. Ideal
