• Identify and fix edge case behaviors through rigorous testing of your data generation pipelines
• Interact with models to carefully identify where model behavior and judgment can be improved
• Gather internal and external feedback on model behavior to document areas for improvement
• Develop evaluations of language model behaviors across judgment-based domains like honesty, character, and ethics
• Work collaboratively with researchers on related teams like Trust and Safety, Alignment Science, and Applied Finetuning

You May Be a Good Fit If You

• Have extensive experience with prompt engineering and chaining for language models
• Demonstrate strong skills in evaluating AI system outputs on subtle or fuzzy tasks
• Have a background in philosophy, psychology, data science, or related fields
• Care about AI safety and the ethical implications of both current and future AI behaviors
• Are comfortable using basic Python and running basic scripts
• Have a keen eye for identifying subtle issues in AI outputs
• Understand how LLMs are trained and are familiar with concepts in reinforcement learning
• Have experience finetuning large language models
• Are happy to engage in test-driven development and to carefully analyze data and data pipelines

Strong Candidates May Also Have

• Formal training in ethics or moral philosophy or moral psychology
• Experience in data science with emphasis on data verification
• Conceptual understanding of language model training and finetuning techniques
• Previous experience developing evaluation frameworks for large language models
• Background in AI safety research or similar fields
• Experience with RLHF, constitutional AI, or other alignment techniques
• Published work related to AI ethics or safety
• Knowledge of model behavior benchmarking
