Senior GenAI Safety Researcher: Frontier Risk

Alice (Formerly ActiveFence); Stati Uniti; In loco; USD 120.000 - 180.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Alice is seeking a Senior Researcher to drive research execution and technical delivery across frontier AI risks, with a focus on CBRNE and cybersecurity threat vectors. You will lead client-facing engagements, translating multimodal threat landscapes into actionable mitigation frameworks for client engineering and safety leadership.

Reporting to a Team Lead, you will coordinate with domain specialists and our core analysis team, ensuring defensible, reproducible findings and timely delivery

Competenze

• Must have 2–4 years of experience spanning AI safety, red-teaming, CBRNE risk, or cyber threat intelligence.
• Proven ability to drive complex technical projects and align specialized experts against demanding deadlines.
• Sound technical judgment navigating dual-use risks, hazardous materials, and sensitive cyber vulnerabilities.
• Clear, persuasive communication skills, with ease translating high-stakes risk architectures for engineering and leadership.

Mansioni

• Lead red-teaming data sets, evaluation protocols, and technical risk reports; institute QA across base-model, guardrail, and agentic workflows across text, vision, and audio modalities.
• Model bandwidth and allocate tasks across subject-matter expert pools; maintain delivery velocity under tight client deadlines.
• Conduct rigorous technical reviews to ensure findings are defensible, reproducible, and aligned with containment standards.
• Serve as the primary analytical lead in client meetings, presenting threat modeling and mitigations to external engineering leads.
• Monitor emerging frontier capabilities to refine internal CBRNE and cyber evaluation frameworks.

Descrizione del lavoro

Alice is seeking a Senior Researcher to drive research execution and technical delivery across frontier AI risks, with a focus on CBRNE and cybersecurity threat vectors.

Reporting directly to a Team Lead, you will serve as the strategic nexus connecting client partners, domain specialists, and our core analysis team. You will lead client-facing engagements, translating intricate multimodal threat landscapes into actionable mitigation frameworks for client engineering and safety leadership.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the execution of red-teaming datasets, evaluation protocols, and technical risk reports; institute QA checkpoints across base-model, guardrail, and agentic workflows across text, vision, and audio modalities.
• Model bandwidth, allocate tasks across subject-matter expert pools (including PhD-level researchers), and maintain delivery velocity under compressed client deadlines.
• Conduct rigorous technical and methodological reviews on all analytic outputs to ensure findings are defensible, reproducible, and aligned with dual-use containment standards.
• Serve as the primary analytical lead in client meetings, presenting threat modeling, residual risk levels, and architecture-level mitigations to external engineering leads.
• Monitor emerging frontier capabilities to refine Alice’s internal CBRNE and cyber evaluation frameworks against state-of-the-art dual-use risks.

Requirements

Must Have

• 2–4 years of experience spanning AI safety, red-teaming, CBRNE risk, or cyber threat intelligence.
• Proven ability to drive complex technical projects and align specialized experts against demanding deadlines.
• Sound technical judgment when navigating dual-use risks, hazardous materials, and sensitive cyber vulnerabilities.
• Clear, persuasive communication skills, with ease translating high-stakes risk architectures for engineering and executive leadership.

Nice to Have

• Advanced degree in chemistry, biology, nuclear science, computer security, or AI.
• Offensive security experience (pen testing, vulnerability research, CTFs).
• In-depth understanding of frontier AI evaluation benchmarks, capability threshold triggers, and lab preparedness frameworks.
