macOS Sonoma 14.5 Application Expert (Remote)
Listing checked September 13, 2026 · pay as published by Mercor
Overview
Mercor needs professionals who already use macOS Sonoma 14.5 as their day-to-day desktop. The work centers on the macOS environment itself: Finder, System Settings, window and Space management, and bundled apps. Candidates must run that exact OS now because Mercor does not supply software licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. You also need a display setup that captures screenshots above 2.5 megapixels, either from one high-resolution monitor or two 1920×1080+ displays captured as a single spanning image.
What You'll Do7
- 1Run macOS Sonoma 14.5 as your primary desktop operating system for the engagement.
- 2Work inside Finder, System Settings, and the bundled macOS applications to complete Mercor's tasks.
- 3Manage windows and Spaces as part of your everyday macOS workflow.
- 4Capture screenshots that exceed 2.5 megapixels.
- 5Use a single qualifying high-resolution monitor or a dual-display setup to produce those screenshots.
- 6Confirm each monitor meets the 1920×1080 threshold when you choose the dual-monitor option.
- 7Deliver one spanning image from two side-by-side displays if you use Option B.
Requirements6
- 1Use macOS Sonoma 14.5 as your own day-to-day desktop OS and can start now.
- 2Own a Mac environment without needing Mercor to provide licenses, virtual machines, or hardware.
- 3Capture screenshots at more than 2.5 megapixels.
- 4Meet Option A with one monitor at or above the listed resolution for its aspect ratio, such as 4K, QHD, 5K, or a qualifying MacBook Pro built-in display.
- 5Or meet Option B with two displays side by side captured as one spanning image, each at 1920×1080 or higher.
- 6Show hands-on experience as a Mac power user, Apple-platform administrator, or technical or creative professional.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate already lives in macOS Sonoma 14.5 every day and meets the display requirement without buying new gear. Mac power users, Apple-platform admins, and creative or technical professionals who know Finder, System Settings, and Spaces fit this engagement well. The role suits people who can prove the exact OS version and screenshot capability from the start. Candidates who run Sonoma in a virtual machine, expect Mercor to supply a license or hardware, or use only a single 1080p monitor under Option B should look elsewhere. Applications often score low when the candidate cannot prove the exact OS version or cannot capture a screenshot above 2.5 megapixels. Another common rejection reason: a dual-monitor setup where only one screen reaches 1920×1080.
