AI Safety Expert — English & Norwegian

This contract role offers an opportunity to help strengthen the safety and reliability of conversational AI systems and intelligent agents. You will conduct structured adversarial testing to uncover vulnerabilities, jailbreaks, prompt injections, misuse scenarios, and potential bias exploitation. Your work will help identify weaknesses before they can affect users or real-world deployments. You will generate high-quality human evaluation data by annotating failures, classifying vulnerabilities, and identifying systemic risks. The role combines creative problem-solving with rigorous testing methodologies, frameworks, and benchmarks. Working remotely across evolving projects, you will produce reproducible findings that help technical and non-technical stakeholders take meaningful action.

Accountabilities:

• Conduct red-team testing of conversational AI models and agents to identify jailbreaks, prompt-injection vulnerabilities, misuse scenarios, and opportunities for bias exploitation.
• Develop creative and realistic adversarial prompts and attack scenarios designed to probe model weaknesses.
• Generate high-quality human evaluation data by annotating model failures, classifying vulnerabilities, and identifying systemic safety risks.
• Apply established taxonomies, benchmarks, testing frameworks, and playbooks to ensure consistent and rigorous evaluations.
• Document findings in a reproducible manner through detailed reports, datasets, attack cases, and supporting evidence.
• Clearly communicate technical findings and risk assessments to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Adapt testing approaches across different projects, AI systems, use cases, and customer requirements while maintaining consistent quality standards.
• Contribute insights that help improve AI safety practices, model robustness, and risk mitigation strategies.

Requirements:

• Fluent or professional-level proficiency in both English and Norwegian, with strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Prior experience in AI red teaming, adversarial AI work, cybersecurity, penetration testing, or socio-technical risk assessment.
• Demonstrated ability to systematically probe complex systems for vulnerabilities, unexpected behaviors, and potential misuse.
• Experience applying structured frameworks, taxonomies, benchmarks, or testing methodologies to security or safety evaluations.
• Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills, combined with the creativity needed to develop novel probing strategies.
• Ability to clearly document technical findings and communicate them effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing reproducible, high-quality evaluation results.
• Adaptability and ability to move efficiently between different projects, models, use cases, and customer requirements.
• Experience in adversarial machine learning, cybersecurity, or socio-technical risk is preferred.
• Creative-probing skills developed through psychology, acting, creative writing, or related disciplines are an advantage.

Benefits:

• Competitive contract compensation of $48–$62 per hour.
• Fully remote work environment.
• Flexible, project-based working structure.
• Opportunity to contribute directly to the safety and responsible development of advanced AI systems.
• Exposure to diverse AI models, agents, safety challenges, and adversarial testing methodologies.
• Opportunity to apply both technical and creative problem-solving skills to emerging AI safety challenges.
• Work across varied projects and use cases with the opportunity to expand expertise in AI safety and security.
• Meaningful contribution to improving the robustness, reliability, and responsible deployment of conversational AI.
