Mercor

Senior Domain Expert Annotator (CS & Mathematics)

MercorTextRLHF
I executed advanced data labeling assignments for post-graduate mathematics, algorithmic problem-solving, and software engineering datasets. My work included pairwise comparisons of LLM outputs using multi-dimensional rubrics for factuality and safety, as well as auditing and correcting machine-generated code and proofs. I also led the design of taxonomy guidelines and adversarial red-teaming protocols to reduce domain-specific misclassifications. • Applied RLHF, pairwise comparison, and red teaming for large language model output evaluation • Performed detailed logical and syntactical error tagging on code and mathematical proofs • Developed annotation guidelines to improve accuracy in advanced mathematics datasets • Used proprietary platforms and multi-modal rubrics to enhance LLM guardrails and decrease hallucinations

Specialized Data Labeler & Ontology Designer (Computational Biology)

TextEntity Ner Classification
As the primary subject matter expert for biological data labeling, I annotated scientific literature, medical transcripts, and biochemical pathway diagrams. I developed a customized ontology for genomic sequence interpretation and tags for biological phenomena, then executed and QA'd high-volume batches for accuracy. My role also included performing named entity recognition, sentiment analysis, and relation extraction on peer-reviewed journal datasets. • Designed standardized tags for protein folding anomalies and cellular interactions • Performed entity classification and relation extraction in bioinformatics texts • Maintained 99.8% ground-truth accuracy in QA audits across >10,000 annotations • Utilized Outlier AI's proprietary tools for annotation and quality control

CVAT

Multimodal Data Annotator & QA Specialist

CVATImageSegmentation
I specialized in multimodal data annotation for computer vision projects, using CVAT for semantic segmentation, point-cloud annotation, and bounding boxes for biomedical imaging. I also categorized audio and text data to support NLU models through accurate transcription and formatting. Optimization of platform workflows and bug reporting enhanced overall annotation efficiency and speed. • Labeled MRI and histology images using segmentation and bounding box approaches • Supported SFT projects involving transcription and categorization of audio/text data • Identified/communicated annotation platform UI bugs to engineering teams • Maintained top 1% ranking in speed/accuracy across multiple projects

Graduate Researcher & Data Specialist

OtherImageClassification
I collected, cleaned, and labeled large-scale transcriptomic and microscopy image datasets for machine learning model input as part of academic research. I developed custom GUIs to accelerate image labeling workflows and supervised batch processing by laboratory assistants. My responsibilities included preprocessing, normalization, and ensuring data quality prior to inclusion in algorithmic pipelines. • Labeled cellular microscopy images and transcript data for predictive ML • Built and implemented custom annotation interfaces for manual data entry • Supervised labeling workflows and conducted batch QA on scientific datasets • Performed all preprocessing and formatting for experimental data ingestion
