Чем предстоит заниматься
As a Backend Engineer at Mercor, you will build core platform systems that make our operations secure, reliable, and scalable. This role focuses on two critical areas: Contracts and Identity & Access
Contracts: Build the backend infrastructure that enables flexible ways for our network of Experts to perform work and get paid. This work expands our product capabilities and supports the development of higher-quality foundational models
Identity & Access: Design and maintain systems that provision and deprovision access just-in-time, ensuring Experts can securely perform a wide range of tasks across the platform
You’ll work on foundational systems that sit at the heart of Mercor’s platform, requiring strong ownership, sound architectural judgment, and a focus on security and reliability
This role is a strong fit for a generalist backend engineer who enjoys building core systems end-to-end. Experience with identity systems or enterprise access management is a strong plus
Develop robust infrastructure for platform operations, including systems that support complex contract-related workflows, payouts, fraud, and more
Work closely with engineering leads and cross-functional partners to translate operational needs into reliable, scalable backend services
Improve security, reliability, and developer ergonomics across the systems that underpin Mercor's platform
Contribute to a fast-moving engineering organization where strong backend engineers may flex across teams and high-priority platform initiatives
