About the Role
We are assembling a group of specialists in the nuclear field to perform red-teaming exercises on advanced artificial intelligence models. The goal is to evaluate the capacity of these AI systems to differentiate between safe, technical questions and requests that could facilitate harm. You will develop complex test cases to verify whether models can assist with valid inquiries while correctly blocking requests involving potential risks. Your work will focus on the intricacies of nuclear fuel cycles and regulatory safeguards, involving the design and assessment of prompts that simulate academic or research-based inquiries to test the effectiveness of existing safety protections. Your professional judgment will be critical in establishing the threshold between acceptable assistance and restricted technical information.

- We are looking for individuals with backgrounds as nuclear security engineers, analysts in nonproliferation, nuclear forensics researchers, or inspectors for organizations like Euratom or the IAEA.
- You must demonstrate strong technical writing abilities to clearly explain the reasoning behind your evaluations.
- It is beneficial to have a history of working as an expert witness, publishing research, or participating in red-teaming projects.
- You are required to complete all tasks without utilizing any information that is export-controlled, classified, or subject to a non-disclosure agreement.
Responsibilities
- You will draft difficult single-turn prompts that range from benign to dual-use or adversarial based on your subject matter knowledge.
- You will judge AI-generated outputs based on predefined policies to verify if the system responded correctly.
- You will produce comprehensive reference answers that outline ideal responses and the technical justification for your evaluations.
- You will outline potential scenarios involving the misuse of technology in your field, maintaining clear communication suitable for individuals without specialized training.
Benefits & Perks
- You will have a highly flexible schedule that allows you to start or stop tasks at your convenience without any negative consequences.
- You will contribute to vital efforts aimed at improving the security and safety of emerging artificial intelligence technologies.
