About the Role
This role involves joining a red-teaming project focused on advanced AI models, where you will act as a radiation safety specialist. You will assess the models' ability to differentiate between authorized technical questions and inquiries that might enable the dangerous use of radioactive substances. Given the dual-use nature of radiological knowledge—which spans essential medical and industrial applications as well as security risks—you will ensure AI systems can accurately identify boundaries. Your work will involve creating and reviewing intricate testing scenarios, generating challenging prompts, classifying them by intent, and checking model performance against safety benchmarks. Your professional expertise will directly contribute to improving how AI handles sensitive radiological information.
Requirements
- You should have prior experience serving as a Radiation Safety Officer, managing source acquisition, inventory, regulatory compliance, and disposal tasks.
- You should have held a license in a research, hospital, university, or industrial environment working with Category 1 and 2 sealed sources.
- You should demonstrate expertise in program management, performing audits, managing incident reports, and communicating with national or state regulators.
- You must possess excellent communication skills to convey complex technical reasoning clearly to non-expert audiences.
- You should ideally provide evidence of technical writing, research publications, or expert witness experience, such as a portfolio or work samples.
Responsibilities
- You will design single-turn prompts spanning benign, dual-use, and adversarial categories to stress-test model limitations.
- You will perform performance evaluations by comparing AI outputs to established safety policies to determine if the model handled requests correctly.
- You will produce precise reference answers that provide the necessary technical justification for each scenario.
- You will submit comprehensive written rationales that clearly explain your findings on model safety and operational efficacy.
