Bilingual French Generalist Expert — AI Safety | $48-$52/hr Remote
Overview
Mercor seeks bilingual English and French speakers to strengthen AI safety. You'll create expert-level prompts in French, apply structured guidelines to classify responses, and flag phrasing patterns that could break model safeguards. No prior AI expertise is needed; the onboarding walks through the full evaluation process. The role runs part-time at about seven hours per week, with a start date set for right away.
What You'll Do4
- 1Compose advanced French prompts that test an AI model's handling of sensitive topics.
- 2Sort each prompt and conversation into predefined categories using the supplied rubric.
- 3Identify and report language that attempts to bypass safety filters or triggers escalation.
- 4Write clear justifications for every classification and flag to ensure auditability.
Requirements5
- 1Native-level or near-native fluency in French, with polished written expression in that language.
- 2Professional written English for clear communication with international teams.
- 3Bachelor's degree in progress or already completed, regardless of discipline.
- 4Proven ability to reason about written content logically and catch subtle details.
- 5Comfort evaluating material that deals with sensitive or dual-use information.
Who Should Apply
The right person for this contract writes at a native level in French and can articulate why a particular response might be unsafe. You'll spend hours reading and composing prompts, so a meticulous eye and comfort with controversial subjects matter. If you'd rather avoid thinking about harmful content or struggle with rigid classification rules, this role will test you. A background in content moderation, policy review, or red-teaming strengthens your application, but Western Europe residency is only a bonus, not a gate. Candidates who get passed over often underestimate the precision needed in documenting their decisions or lack the linguistic nuance to identify subtle adversarial phrasing.
Salary Insight
The contract pays $48 to $52 per hour. That rate typically rewards candidates who bring both native French fluency and strict adherence to guidelines, and it falls in line with similar remote AI evaluation work requiring specialized language skills.
