Job description

Application deadline: We are conducting interviews actively and aim to fill this role as soon as we find someone suitable.

You will get to work with frontier labs like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind and be amongst the first to interact with new models before anyone else. The ideal candidate loves rigorously testing frontier AI models, and enjoys building efficient pipelines and automating them. YOU WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO: - Run pre-deployment evaluation campaigns on the most capable AI systems in the world. We partner with multiple labs, giving you access to a breadth of models that no single AI lab could offer.
