  • Review and classify evaluation prompts created by other technical experts.
  • Explain why a request is acceptable or where it crosses a safety boundary.
  • Revise evaluation work using structured reviewer feedback.
  • Create and review written content with precise technical conclusions.

Requirements

This is remote, flexible, task-based contractor work focused on specialized expertise for AI safety evaluation.

  • Language: Professional fluency in English.
  • Education: A master's degree or higher in chemical engineering, chemistry, mechanical engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Expertise: Professional experience with explosives or energetic materials.
  • Useful background: Explosives engineering, energetic materials research, ordnance, blasting, defense research, AI evaluation, red teaming, or data annotation.
  • Communication: Ability to explain the technical basis for safety judgments clearly and precisely.
