About the Role

We are assembling a group of specialists in energetic materials and explosives to conduct red-teaming exercises for advanced artificial intelligence models. The goal is to determine how well these models differentiate between safe technical questions and hazardous requests that might result in misuse. By bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application, you will help ensure AI platforms provide accurate information for safe topics while consistently declining inquiries that create safety or security vulnerabilities.

Requirements

  • You must have substantial career experience in fields such as energetic materials chemistry, hazardous device management, munitions engineering, propulsion systems, or incident analysis.
  • We are seeking professionals with backgrounds in commercial blasting, public safety roles, or certified materials expertise.
  • Exceptional technical writing ability is required to articulate your evaluations clearly to a non-technical audience.
  • Experience with incident documentation, providing expert witness testimony, or academic publishing is highly preferred, and you should be ready to share examples of your past work.

Responsibilities

  • Develop a range of test prompts across benign, dual-use, and adversarial categories to challenge the model.
  • Assess model responses according to established policy guidelines to verify if the information handling is appropriate.
  • Compose comprehensive reference answers that provide the accurate technical logic for every scenario.
  • Pinpoint situations where the technology wrongly declines legitimate industry questions or erroneously provides assistance for unsafe requests hidden in deceptive contexts.
