You will be instrumental in ensuring that our frontier models operate safely and reliably in real-world environments by designing policies that clearly define safe model behavior.

Responsibilities

  • Build evaluations to identify policy gaps and model failures.
  • Use evaluation findings to improve policies and training.
  • Collaborate with research, engineering, and domain experts to support safe and reliable model deployment.

Requirements

  • Relevant experience in AI safety, policy, or risk assessment.
  • Strong judgment to translate complex safety questions into clear, practical policies.
  • Technical fluency to work hands-on with model data and evaluations.
  • Motivation by OpenAI’s mission and the responsible use of AI in safety-critical settings.
