Overview

Mercor seeks people who use Android Studio on a macOS Mac and can open the IDE today. The work centers on capturing screenshots above 2.5 megapixels from an Android development setup, with Kotlin or Java projects as the backdrop. You bring your own machine, display, and software because the project provides no licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. This remote, hourly engagement suits developers who keep a ready-to-use Android toolchain and a display that meets the pixel threshold.

What You'll Do5

  • Open Android Studio on your own macOS machine during the engagement window.
  • Work inside Android codebases that use Kotlin or Java.
  • Capture screenshots that exceed 2.5 megapixels from the Android Studio environment.
  • Arrange either one high-resolution monitor or two side-by-side displays that produce a single spanning image.
  • Keep your local setup ready without relying on provided licenses, virtual machines, or hardware.

Requirements7

  • Android Studio installed and available on a Mac that runs macOS, with the ability to open it today.
  • Hands-on background with Android application development or mobile development using Kotlin or Java.
  • A display setup that captures screenshots larger than 2.5 megapixels.
  • Option A: one monitor that meets or exceeds a listed resolution, such as 2560x1440, 3840x2160, 3000x2000, or 3440x1440.
  • Option B: two monitors side by side, each at 1920x1080 or higher, captured as a single spanning image. A single 1080p display does not qualify.
  • MacBook Pro 14-inch (3024x1964) or 16-inch (3456x2234) built-in displays meet the requirement.
  • Access to your own hardware and software, since the project supplies no licenses, VMs, or devices.

Who Should Apply

The right fit is an Android or mobile developer who keeps Android Studio installed on a macOS Mac, works with Kotlin or Java, and owns a display or dual-monitor setup that clears the 2.5-megapixel bar. You should apply if you can open the IDE today and show that your screen resolution matches one of the accepted options. This role is less suitable for candidates who need Mercor to supply software licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. A common reason applications miss the mark is a single 1080p monitor, which does not meet Option B. Another frequent gap is lacking a Mac that runs macOS, since Windows or Linux setups fall outside the stated tool requirement.

Salary Insight

The role pays $55 to $65 per hour. That band fits specialized remote contract work where you supply the Mac, the Android Studio setup, and the display hardware. The upper end tends to match candidates who can verify both a qualifying screen and direct Android development experience.
