Electrical Engineering Writer at Mercor

Senior Electrical Engineering Expert | $80/hr | Remote

About the role

Mercor is hiring senior electrical engineering professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in Fortune 500 enterprise electrical systems and product design contexts. Work covers two standards tracks — an International track (IEC) and a US track (NEC / NFPA 70, NESC, IEEE) — and experts qualified in either or both are encouraged to apply. You will design enterprise engineering scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior F500 engineering leaders think.

What you'll do

• Construct enterprise electrical engineering scenarios spanning complex circuit and systems design cycles, multi-stakeholder design reviews, and manufacturing or regulatory certification processes at F500 accounts.
• Build tasks across F500 power systems and grid infrastructure, semiconductor and PCB design, embedded systems and firmware, signal processing, and control systems engineering.
• Develop scenarios involving tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence, MATLAB/Simulink, SPICE simulation platforms, and enterprise PLM/EDA systems.
• Apply enterprise methodologies (circuit analysis and simulation, EMC/EMI compliance, control theory, reliability and failure mode analysis) against the target standards track, producing reference design specifications, engineering analyses, and executive-level technical narratives.
• Author rubrics that distinguish authentic enterprise electrical engineering judgment from generic textbook or coursework-level recall.

Qualifications

• 5+ years as an electrical engineer or engineering lead at a Fortune 500 or major technology, industrial, or energy company (e.g. Intel, Texas Instruments, GE, Siemens, Tesla, ABB, Schneider Electric).
• Direct ownership of large-scale circuit designs, power systems, or engineering certification programs.
• Fluency in enterprise electrical engineering tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of how safety standards, regulatory certification (NEC / NFPA 70, IEEE, UL, FCC, IEC), and cross-functional design governance actually work.
• A professional engineering credential (US PE or an international equivalent such as CEng or EUR ING) and prior rubric, engineering-training curriculum, or design documentation authorship are a plus.

Pay, schedule and location

$80/hr, hourly contract work. Fully remote, with workflows calibrated to the design complexity, safety stakes, and production scale of Fortune 500 and large industrial and technology manufacturers.
