VMware Fusion Application User - macOS Code
Listing checked September 13, 2026 · pay as published by Mercor
Overview
Mercor seeks people who already run VMware Fusion on a Mac and can open the app today. You will support a remote project that centers on real application use, virtual machines, and screenshot capture. Your own license, VM images, and hardware must be ready because the company does not provide them. A qualifying display is also required: either one high-resolution screen or two monitors that combine into a single capture above 2.5 megapixels. Mac-based IT admins, sysadmins, DevOps engineers, and cross-platform developers will fit the work.
What You'll Do8
- 1Launch VMware Fusion on your macOS machine and run virtual machines for assigned tasks.
- 2Capture screenshots of the application or virtual machine interface at more than 2.5 megapixels.
- 3Set up one qualifying monitor or a two-monitor spanning arrangement that meets the project's capture rules.
- 4Document each step you take inside VMware Fusion and any virtual machine operations you run.
- 5Confirm your MacBook Pro built-in display or external monitor matches the required resolution for its aspect ratio.
- 6Show your own Mac has VMware Fusion installed and ready before work begins.
- 7Follow task instructions for application use, screenshot quality, and file submission.
- 8Flag any missing license, VM image, or hardware issue before it blocks a capture session.
Requirements7
- 1VMware Fusion installed on a Mac you own or control, with the ability to open it today.
- 2macOS as the host operating system.
- 3Hands-on work with virtual machines in roles such as Mac IT administrator, sysadmin, DevOps engineer, or cross-platform developer.
- 4A display setup that captures more than 2.5 megapixels. Option A: one monitor at or above these examples by aspect ratio: 4:3 at 1826x1370, 16:9 at 2109x1186, 16:10 at 2000x1250, 3:2 at 1937x1291, or 21:9 at 2416x1036. MacBook Pro 14-inch 3024x1964 and 16-inch 3456x2234 built-in screens qualify.
- 5Option B: two monitors side by side captured as one spanning image. Two 1920x1080+ screens qualify. A single 1080p display from the pair does not.
- 6Your own software license, virtual machines, and hardware. The company provides none of these.
- 7Comfort with screenshot capture, resolution checks, and task submission.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate already uses VMware Fusion on a Mac and can launch it the same day. They often work as Mac sysadmins, IT administrators, DevOps engineers, or cross-platform developers who manage virtual machines. A qualifying display is non-negotiable: one screen at the stated resolution or two 1080p+ monitors arranged as a single spanning image. Candidates without an existing VMware Fusion license, without a Mac, or without a capture-capable monitor will score low. Applications also fail when someone lists virtualization skills but cannot show an active installation or a current macOS setup.
Salary Insight
The role pays $55.00 to $65.00 per hour. That range fits a contract where you bring your own VMware Fusion license, virtual machines, and high-resolution display hardware. It matches contributors with specialized Mac virtualization experience rather than entry-level IT support.

Application Tip
State your exact Mac model, macOS version, and VMware Fusion version in your application. Include a monitor spec or sample screenshot that proves your capture setup exceeds 2.5 megapixels, such as a 14-inch MacBook Pro at 3024x1964 or two 1920x1080 displays in a spanning arrangement.
