AI Security - Applied AI Researcher

The role

You will lead AI security solutions from problem formulation and research design through model development, evaluation, and production deployment. You will design scalable, efficient, and robust systems and explore advances in NLP and LLM-based systems.

What you will do

• Lead AI security solutions from problem formulation and research design through model development, evaluation, and production deployment.
• Ensure solutions are measurable, reliable, and effective under real-world traffic.
• Take responsibility for ambiguous AI security problems.
• Propose thoughtful approaches and drive structured experimentation and deep model analysis.
• Design systems that are accurate, scalable, efficient, and robust.
• Continuously explore advances in NLP and LLM-based systems.
• Critically assess what is worth integrating into a production environment.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years of hands-on experience applying NLP/DL algorithms, techniques to real-world problems, with strong intuition for textual data and model behavior.
• Experience working with LLMs, with a strong grasp of practical best practices and the judgment to apply them throughout the R&D lifecycle when building task-specific models.
• Strong proficiency in Python and modern DL frameworks (PyTorch, HuggingFace, etc.).
• Experience designing experiments, defining metrics, and analyzing model failures.
• A strong drive to solve complex AI security challenges, with both curiosity and pragmatism.
