About the Role
Mercor is building realistic, high-fidelity simulated environments to evaluate and train AI models on real-world procurement workflows for a leading spend-management technology company. We're looking for senior procurement and vendor-management professionals to author and validate tasks that mirror how procurement teams actually vet new vendors and review contract renewals.
Key Responsibilities
- Review simulated new-vendor intake requests, benchmarking price and contract terms against realistic company reference data
- Consolidate multi-lens reviews (finance, legal, security, IT) into a well-reasoned final approval recommendation
- Author step-level rubrics and golden responses that capture how an experienced procurement lead would judge a request or renewal
- Audit simulated company environments for realism and unintended contradictions before tasks open
Ideal Qualifications
- 8+ years of professional experience in procurement, spend operations, or vendor management, with hands‐on experience running real vendor requests and renewals
- Sourced from mature procurement functions at companies with formal vendor‐review processes
- Strong written communication skills; comfortable producing structured, rubric‐style feedback
Nice to Have
- Experience with modern spend‐management or e‐procurement platforms
- Prior task‐writing, rubric‐authoring, or AI‐training data experience
