Electrical Engineer - Standards Expert

About the job

Mercor connects elite creative and technical talent with leading AI research labs. Headquartered in San Francisco, our investors include Benchmark, General Catalyst, Peter Thiel, Adam D'Angelo, Larry Summers, and Jack Dorsey.

Position: Electrical Engineering Expert
Type: Contract
Compensation: $70–$80/hour
Location: Remote

Role Responsibilities

• Construct enterprise electrical engineering scenarios for complex circuit and systems design cycles, multi-stakeholder design reviews, and manufacturing or regulatory certification processes at F500 accounts.
• Build tasks across F500 power systems, grid infrastructure, semiconductor and PCB design, embedded systems, firmware, signal processing, and control systems engineering.
• Develop engineering scenarios using tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence, MATLAB/Simulink, SPICE simulation platforms, and enterprise PLM/EDA systems in F500 stacks.
• Apply enterprise electrical engineering methodologies like circuit analysis and simulation, EMC/EMI compliance, control theory, and reliability analysis against standards tracks (US: NEC / NFPA 70, NESC, IEEE; International: IEC).
• Author rubrics that distinguish authentic enterprise electrical engineering judgment from generic textbook or coursework-level recall.

Qualifications

Must-Have

• 5+ years as an electrical engineer or engineering lead at a Fortune 500 or major technology, industrial, or energy company (e.g., Intel, Texas Instruments, GE, Siemens, Tesla, ABB, Schneider Electric).
• Direct ownership of large-scale circuit designs, power systems, or engineering certification programs.
• Fluency in enterprise electrical engineering tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of safety standards, regulatory certification (NEC / NFPA 70, IEEE, UL, FCC, IEC), and cross-functional design governance.

Preferred

• A professional engineering credential (US PE or an international equivalent such as CEng or EUR ING).
• Prior rubric, engineering-training curriculum, or design documentation authorship.
