Role overview
Mercor is hiring experienced mechanical, electrical, plumbing, controls, and commissioning engineers to review and strengthen complex engineering tasks set in mission-critical data-center environments. This is a technical peer-review role: you will assess realistic design and field scenarios, repair gaps in task materials, and confirm that the expected outputs and grading methods reflect professional engineering practice.
What you will do- Review long-horizon tasks involving data-center cooling, hydronic and process-water systems, coolant distribution units, heat exchangers, HVAC and equipment integration, electrical systems, building controls, and commissioning
- Check engineering assumptions, calculations, code and standards use, equipment data, operating sequences, redundancy, and constructability
- Identify ambiguity, conflicting source documents, missing constraints, or unrealistic deliverables
- Improve task prompts, supporting artifacts, acceptance criteria, rubrics, and programmatic checks
- Produce clear technical findings and validate corrected tasks end to end
- Typically 2+ years of experience in data-center or other mission-critical MEP design, controls, commissioning, or operations
- Relevant roles include Senior or Lead Mechanical Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Plumbing or Process Engineer, Controls or BAS Engineer, Commissioning Engineer, MEP Design Manager, or Technical Director
- Strong command of data-center systems and relevant codes and standards; PE or a recognized commissioning credential is preferred
- Experience at a leading multidisciplinary, mission-critical, or consulting engineering firm is strongly preferred
- Able to interpret large document sets, drawings, schedules, calculations, equipment submittals, and machine-readable data
- Precise, detail-oriented, and able to explain technical issues clearly in writing
- Approximately 5-10 hours per week initially
- Immediate start
- Compensation: $100-$140 per hour, based on experience and role fit
