About Mercor
Mercor pays a network of domain experts (physicians, lawyers, engineers, consultants) to train and grade frontier AI models, and its seven GTM openings are spread over three separate motions. Four are partnership seats, and three of those say plainly that the job is getting access to other organizations' data: a sales lead who builds external partnerships from zero and negotiates pricing, scope and data rights with Legal and Finance alongside, a healthcare lead who sources and closes data licensing and data sharing deals with health systems, payers, EHR vendors and life sciences firms under HIPAA and de-identification rules, and two GTM associates who run the outbound calls, email and LinkedIn that book meetings for those leads, one general and one in healthcare. The second motion is new: two founding account executives for Talent Solutions sell AI-powered recruiting and contingent workforce services against incumbent staffing vendors, one hunting Fortune 100 accounts and asked for 7 to 12+ years of quota and $5M to $10M+ ACV deals, the other working companies of 1,000 to 5,000 employees with VP-level buyers, and both write markup, SLA and MSA terms and run RFPs past TA, procurement and legal. The seventh is the first dedicated revenue operations hire, who will build billing, invoicing, revenue reconciliation and reporting across the CRM and billing systems. All seven sit in San Francisco and are on site five days a week.
