Application Users - Vivado on Windows - STEM
About the Role
Mercor is building a pool of professionals with real, hands-on experience in specialized software to support AI training work. This listing is for Vivado users (STEM track). The software covered: AMD/Xilinx FPGA and SoC design, synthesis and timing. Typical backgrounds: FPGA and RTL design and verification engineers.
What You'll Do
- Work inside Vivado on your own machine, doing realistic tasks in the way a practicing professional would
- Capture screenshots of your work as you go, at the resolution required below
- Apply your day-to-day expertise so the AI is trained on how the tool is actually used
Requirements
- You must already have Vivado installed on a Windows PC, and be able to open it right away.
- No software licenses, virtual machines or hardware are provided; you supply your own setup
- Ability to capture screenshots above 2.5 megapixels, in either of two ways: a single high-resolution monitor (for example 2560x1440 QHD, 4K, or a 14"/16" MacBook Pro built-in display), or a dual-monitor setup captured as one spanning image (two 1920x1080+ monitors qualify; one 1080p screen alone does not)
Compensation & Logistics
Pay is $45 to $55 per hour. The commitment is up to 40 hours per week. The role is fully remote and no location restriction is stated.
