Overview
Mercor partners with leading AI labs to train frontier models using human expertise. This role involves evaluating and validating NetSuite accounting work—confirming posted entries, reconciliations, and close steps are correct in the ledger, catching errors in posting logic, and distinguishing between what the system allows and what accounting policy requires.
What You’ll Do
- Confirm posted entries, reconciliations, and close steps are correct in the ledger
- Catch entries posted to wrong period, account, subsidiary, or currency
- Judge completeness of accounting work—whether all related transactions were captured
- Distinguish between entries that post cleanly versus entries that break policy or cutoff rules
- Verify that closed periods, missing approvals, and invalid records are properly refused by the system
- Spot misposted entries, unreconciled variances, or cutoff errors
Requirements
- Frequent NetSuite use (weekly or more) for accounting work in current or recent role
- 3+ years of professional accounting experience including month-end close
- Ability to spot misposted entries, unreconciled variances, or cutoff errors on sight
- Strong working knowledge in at least 2–3 specialized areas: revenue recognition (ASC 606), procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, inventory and costing, fixed assets, multi-book/multi-currency accounting, or NetSuite administration
- Hands-on experience as a NetSuite user or administrator (SuiteScript development or implementation-only experience does not qualify)
- CPA (active or inactive) preferred; otherwise degree in accounting or finance or equivalent controller-level experience
- Prior data annotation, labeling, or AI evaluation experience is a plus
Who Should Apply
Apply if you're an accounting professional who has lived month-end close and intercompany accounting in NetSuite—someone who knows the difference between what closes cleanly and what an auditor would flag. This suits people with strong judgment about accounting policy, not just system mechanics. It will frustrate someone who views NetSuite as purely a transaction-posting tool, or who hasn't done hands-on accounting close work recently.
Salary Insight
$70–$100/hour for contract work is reasonable for specialized accounting expertise and reflects the depth of NetSuite and close-process knowledge required. Rates fall in the mid-to-senior range for freelance accounting domain work. Your final rate will likely depend on certifications (CPA status), specialized depth areas, and any prior AI evaluation experience you bring.

Application Tip
Lead with a specific month-end close scenario you owned—intercompany eliminations, a variance you traced, or a cutoff error you caught—rather than listing your years of experience. Mercor is hiring someone to evaluate accounting logic and policy compliance, not just verify that buttons were pressed. Mention any AI evaluation or data labeling work you've done; that experience directly signals you can think systematically about ambiguous cases and communicate judgment clearly.
