Job Details
This role involves contributing to AI safety by annotating and evaluating AI behaviors to ensure the systems are safe.

- Apply harm taxonomies and guidelines consistently, even when tasks are ambiguous.
- Document your reasoning to improve guidelines.
- Collaborate to provide the human data that powers AI safety research, model improvements, and risk audits.
Qualifications
- Background in trust & safety, governance, or policy-to-product frameworks.
- Experience with harm taxonomies, safety-by-design principles, or regulatory frameworks (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF).
- Skilled at translating abstract policies into concrete evaluation criteria.
- Motivated by reducing user harm and ensuring systems are safe, ethical, and compliant.
Requirements
- No prior annotation experience is required; ability to make careful, consistent decisions in ambiguous situations is essential.
- Willingness to review AI outputs that touch on sensitive topics such as bias, misinformation, or harmful behaviors.
- Participation in higher-sensitivity projects is optional and supported by clear guidelines and wellness resources.
Benefits
- Work at the frontier of AI safety, providing the human data that shapes how models behave.
- Gain experience in a rapidly growing field with direct impact on how labs deploy advanced systems.
