However, some roles may require more time in our offices. ## Description We're hiring Cyber Evaluations Engineers to build and run the evaluations that measure cyber-relevant capabilities and safeguard robustness in our models. You'll design new evals, run per-release robustness testing, and dig into data on jailbreaks and prompt bypasses to understand where our safeguards hold up and where they don't. You'll also design many of the probes that detect cyber abuse in production and help shape the overall detection architecture alongside the policy team., Design and run capability, uplift, and safety evaluations to assess cyber-relevant risk in new models Execute per-release safeguard-robustness testing ahead of major model launches Analyze evaluation results and communicate findings clearly to the team and to stakeholders Design, prototype, and tune detection probes for cyber misuse Work with the cyber policy team to turn policy lines into a layered, robust abuse-detection architecture, and measure its precision and coverage over time Build and maintain internal tooling used to run and score evaluations Collaborate with policy and engineering partners to translate eval findings into safeguard improvements
