PyCharm on macOS Application User - Remote
Listing checked September 13, 2026 · pay as published by Mercor
Overview
Mercor seeks professionals who already run PyCharm on a macOS machine and can open the IDE today. This remote, hourly project centers on hands-on use of the Python development environment for coding tasks. No software licenses, virtual machines, or hardware come with the role, so your own Mac and PyCharm install must meet the technical rules. You also need a display setup that captures screenshots above 2.5 megapixels, either from one high-resolution monitor or two monitors spanning a single image.
What You'll Do6
- 1Open PyCharm on your own Mac and use it for Python coding work throughout the engagement.
- 2Apply IDE features such as debugging, refactoring, and virtual-environment management to real tasks.
- 3Capture screenshots from your display that exceed 2.5 megapixels for each required submission.
- 4Verify your monitor setup fits either the single high-resolution screen rule or the dual-monitor spanning rule.
- 5Work on an hourly schedule and track time for the remote project.
- 6Keep your local PyCharm installation and macOS environment ready for each task.
Requirements6
- 1You have PyCharm installed on a Mac that runs macOS, and you can launch the application today.
- 2You own the hardware and software needed for the work. Mercor does not provide licenses, virtual machines, or computers.
- 3Your screen capture setup produces images larger than 2.5 megapixels.
- 4For a single monitor, the display matches one of the listed resolutions: 1826x1370 or 2048x1536 (4:3); 2109x1186, 2560x1440, 3840x2160, or 5120x2880 (16:9); 2000x1250, 2240x1400, 2560x1600, or 2880x1800 (16:10); 1937x1291, 2160x1440, 2256x1504, 2736x1824, or 3000x2000 (3:2); or 2416x1036, 2560x1080, 3440x1440, or 3840x1600 (21:9).
- 5MacBook Pro 14-inch (3024x1964) and 16-inch (3456x2234) built-in displays qualify as a single monitor.
- 6For a dual-monitor setup, two displays sit side by side and a single spanning image captures both. Two 1920x1080 or higher monitors qualify. A single 1080p screen does not meet the rule.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate owns a Mac, keeps PyCharm installed, and can launch it on demand. This role fits Python developers, backend engineers, data scientists, and ML practitioners who use PyCharm as a primary IDE. Candidates who need Mercor to supply a license, virtual machine, or computer will not fit the engagement. Applicants often lose consideration when they cannot open PyCharm on macOS during the first check, or when they submit from a single 1080p monitor that fails the screenshot rule.
Salary Insight
The role pays $55.00 to $65.00 per hour. That range fits an hourly engagement for professionals who bring their own PyCharm-ready Mac and display hardware. Candidates with direct PyCharm experience on macOS and a qualifying high-resolution monitor sit at the upper end.

Application Tip
Before you apply, open PyCharm on your Mac, confirm your macOS version, and take a test screenshot from your current display. Check that the image is at least 2.5 megapixels and that your setup matches either the single monitor or dual-monitor option. Mention the PyCharm version, your monitor resolution, and one Python project where you used debugging or virtual environments.
