AWS Serverless & IaC Task Auditor at Mercor

AWS Serverless & IaC Task Auditor | $70–90/hr | Remote (US)

Join a cutting-edge AI initiative as a technical auditor evaluating the quality, correctness, and architectural soundness of AWS serverless and infrastructure-as-code tasks used to train and assess frontier AI models. Your expert feedback will directly shape the reliability of AI-generated cloud solutions.

What You'll Do

• Evaluate multi-service serverless architecture designs for correctness and best practices
• Assess infrastructure-as-code (IaC) fidelity across AWS CDK, CloudFormation, and SAM
• Review cross-service integration correctness, IAM/permission boundaries, and failure/retry semantics
• Analyze event-driven architecture patterns for soundness and scalability
• Provide clear, rubric-based written feedback on submitted tasks

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands-on experience building multi-service AWS serverless applications (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB/Streams, S3, EventBridge, SNS/SQS, Step Functions)
• Strong proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools (AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or SAM)
• Demonstrated ability to assess event-driven architectures, IAM boundaries, and retry/failure semantics
• Familiarity with local emulation tools (e.g., LocalStack) versus real AWS runtime behavior

Preferred Qualifications

• AWS certifications (Solutions Architect or Developer)
• Experience with serverless observability and cost optimization
• Prior experience in code review or task grading roles

This is a flexible, hourly contractor engagement ideal for seasoned AWS professionals looking to contribute to frontier AI development.
