Regulatory Law Expert
About this role
Role Overview
- Mercor is seeking senior regulatory law professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in regulatory compliance and government affairs contexts.
- The workflows are calibrated to the regulatory complexity, enforcement stakes, and scope of major regulated-industry compliance programs.
- This role builds worlds on two tracks: a US track (Administrative Procedure Act and agency-specific statutes such as SEC, FDA, and FTC rules) and an International track (EU regulatory frameworks and UK regulatory bodies). Experts qualified in either or both tracks are encouraged to apply.
- Contributors design regulatory law scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior regulatory counsel think.
Key Responsibilities
- Construct scenarios spanning regulatory compliance program design, agency investigations and enforcement actions, and rulemaking or comment processes.
- Build tasks across financial services regulation, healthcare and FDA regulation, antitrust and competition law, data privacy and cybersecurity regulation, and environmental and energy regulation.
- Develop scenarios involving tools such as regulatory tracking platforms, compliance management systems, and agency filing systems used across regulated industries.
- Apply regulatory law methodologies (regulatory interpretation, compliance risk assessment, enforcement response strategy) to the standards track a world targets (US: Administrative Procedure Act, agency-specific statutes and regulations; International: EU regulations and directives, UK regulatory frameworks), and produce reference compliance memoranda, regulatory filings, and enforcement response documents.
- Author rubrics that distinguish authentic regulatory judgment from generic law school or bar exam-level recall.
Ideal Qualifications
- 5+ years working as a regulatory attorney or compliance counsel at a major law firm, regulated company, or government agency (Covington & Burling, Sidley Austin, WilmerHale, or in-house regulatory/compliance counsel at a bank, pharmaceutical company, or technology company).
- Direct ownership of regulatory compliance programs, agency interactions, or enforcement matters.
- Fluency in regulatory tooling, plus understanding of how administrative process and agency rulemaking actually work.
- A recognized professional credential is strongly preferred (JD with bar admission, or an international equivalent); prior rubric, training, or compliance documentation authorship is a plus.
