We're looking for a product-oriented full-stack engineer with strong technical fundamentals and exceptional product taste. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys owning user-facing features end-to-end—from idea to production—while deeply understanding the business and marketplace dynamics behind what they're building. You'll work on core marketplace surfaces that impact how engineers discover Mercor, apply to opportunities, complete assessments, and ultimately earn income. Success in this role requires good judgment, comfort operating in ambiguity, and the ability to ship high-quality experiences quickly without over-engineering.
Job Responsibility:
Own product features end-to-end, from scoping and design partnership to implementation, launch, and iteration
Build and maintain frontend experiences in React / Next.js with strong UX judgment and attention to detail
Design and implement backend APIs and services in Python and Go that power marketplace workflows
Model and evolve data using MongoDB and SQL, balancing correctness, flexibility, and performance
Partner closely with Product and Design to make trade-offs between speed, quality, and long-term maintainability
Develop intuition for marketplace dynamics (supply, demand, incentives, trust, activation, drop-off) and reflect that in product decisions
Instrument features, analyze funnels, and iterate based on real user behavior
Raise the bar for code quality, system design, and product craftsmanship through reviews and collaboration
Requirements:
Strong product intuition and UX sensibility
Ability to reason about user behavior, incentives, and marketplace dynamics
Comfort making product decisions when requirements are incomplete or evolving
Experience building full-stack web applications in production
Strong frontend experience with React / Next.js
Backend experience with Python and/or Go, including API design and service ownership
Familiarity with MongoDB and relational databases (SQL) and when to use each
Track record of shipping features end-to-end in fast-moving environments
Bias toward action and ownership
Ability to balance speed with long-term quality and know when 'good enough' is correct
Clear communicator who can align technical decisions with business goals
Nice to have:
Experience working on marketplaces, consumer products, or growth-oriented platforms
Strong intuition for onboarding, activation, and funnel optimization
Experience working closely with designers and PMs in highly iterative product cycles
