About this role

Mercor is hiring native Japanese speakers to help capture and evaluate real, natural voice interactions with a next-generation AI assistant, in partnership with a leading AI lab.

You will use a specialized version of the app on your own Mac to complete everyday tasks by voice, then log and rate the AI's responses in your bilingual language.

Key Responsibilities

  • Use your voice to compose messages, emails, and notes across everyday apps
  • Direct the AI to take actions such as generating images, formatting text, applying spreadsheet formulas, or summarizing documents
  • Record accurate transcripts of your spoken queries, and produce a cleaned-up transcript
  • Rate the AI's responses
  • Log all task data in a structured tracking sheet and upload supporting recordings to a shared drive

Ideal Qualifications

  • Native or near-native proficiency in Japanese (raised/native to Japan preferred)
  • Able to understand and follow instructions in English
  • MUST own a Mac with an Apple Silicon chip (M1, M2, or M3) running macOS Sequoia 15.0 or newer
  • Regular, everyday use of common productivity apps (email, messaging, docs, spreadsheets, browsers)
  • Comfortable with detailed, structured data entry and self-directed quality review

Project Timeline

  • Start Date: Immediate
  • Duration: 4 weeks

Application & Onboarding

  • Upload your resume and application form
  • Complete a 25-minute conversational interview on your background, experience, and motivations
  • Set up your Mercor Expert email and complete technical setup
  • Receive next steps and onboarding details within a few days
