Mercor connects elite creative and technical talent with leading AI research labs. The company is seeking an Insurance Actuarial Specialist to design actuarial scenarios and work products, create expert reference responses, and evaluate AI-generated actuarial analyses for accuracy, sound methodology, and clear communication.

What you'll do:

What they're looking for:
