Intelligence Expert (Bachelor's, Master's and PhDs) - AI Trainer

Overview

We are looking for highly experienced individuals with backgrounds in intelligence, defense, cyber operations, counterintelligence, counterterrorism, and related fields to join our AI research community.

Your role will be to simulate and evaluate how malicious actors might leverage large language models (LLMs) to plan and enhance acts of violence, terrorism, targeted assassinations, special operations, or tactical-level attacks. Fellows will engage in red teaming exercises, evaluating and interpreting LLM-generated outputs from jailbreaking attempts, and determining whether those outputs constitute credible, material threats in real-world scenarios.

This is a high-impact position ideal for professionals who want to apply their government or military background to anticipate national security risks in the age of AI.
