Political Bias Expert – Remote (AI Research & Critical Thinking Role)
Pay: $70/hour • Flexible 20–30 hours/week • Remote Contract

Mercor is hiring Political Bias Experts to join a leading AI research lab tackling one of the most complex challenges in artificial intelligence — ensuring models reason with clarity, fairness, and accuracy on politically sensitive and culturally charged topics.

If you have a sharp analytical mind, a commitment to truth over trend, and the courage to challenge prevailing narratives when evidence demands it, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Bias & Reasoning Analysis: Evaluate political reasoning generated by AI, identifying both overt and subtle bias.

  • Framework Development: Contribute to guidelines that help AI handle controversial issues with neutrality and precision.

  • Evidence-Based Review: Provide structured feedback to align AI outputs with facts and logical reasoning.

  • Cross-Spectrum Thinking: Collaborate with researchers to ensure AI can engage fairly across diverse political viewpoints.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Advanced degree in political science, sociology, anthropology, history, philosophy, or related field — or equivalent independent research experience.

  • Proven ability to dissect complex political or ideological arguments.

  • Strong writing skills: clear, concise, and persuasive.

  • Demonstrated intellectual integrity and critical thinking expertise.

  • Comfort working with controversial or ideologically diverse material.

Why Join Us?

  • Work on the front lines of AI ethics, political bias detection, and responsible AI development.

  • Flexible, fully remote contract role with competitive hourly pay.

  • Engage with cutting-edge research and collaborate with a team of high-caliber thinkers.
