  • Pitch in on a variety of operational projects as needed.

What we're looking for

  • Practical experience probing systems for weaknesses, for example through red-teaming, security testing, competitive security exercises or trust and safety casework.
  • Comfort managing a client account and driving a project through every stage.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • High agency and a record of producing quality work against tight timelines.
  • Willingness to put in long hours when the work calls for it.
  • Prior experience at a leading AI organization, a large technology company, a respected security firm or similar.
  • A degree from a highly regarded university, unless your experience is exceptional.
