– Provide structured feedback to improve model alignment and safety performance.

– Collaborate with AI researchers and safety teams on ongoing evaluation initiatives.

## Required Qualifications

– Bachelor's degree or higher in Journalism, Communications, Psychology, Sociology, Public Policy, Law, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, or a related discipline.

– 5+ years of professional experience in AI Safety, Trust & Safety, journalism, public policy, scientific research, security, or a related field.

– Excellent written English, critical thinking, and analytical reasoning skills.

– Ability to consistently evaluate nuanced and policy-sensitive scenarios.

## Preferred Qualifications

– Experience with AI Safety, RLHF, SFT, Trust & Safety, or AI evaluation.

– Familiarity with safety policies, content moderation, or evaluation rubric development.

– Experience reviewing complex, high-risk, or ambiguous content.

## Why Join?

– Shape the safety and behaviour of frontier AI models used by millions worldwide.

– Work on challenging, real-world safety evaluations across nuanced and high-impact domains.

– Collaborate with leading AI researchers, engineers, and safety teams.
