Senior Responsible AI Researcher

Description We are seeking a visionary, highly accomplished Senior Responsible AI Researcher to lead state-of-the-art research initiatives at the intersection of frontier models, Trust & Safety (T&S), model evaluation, and adversarial robustness. In this role, you will bridge deep academic rigor with practical, real-world AI safety challenges. You will drive self-initiated research, design evaluation methodologies for emerging risks (e.g., persuasion, manipulation, sycophancy, agentic safety), and build safety benchmarks across Generative AI modalities (Text, Image, Multimodal, and Autonomous Agents). You will also serve as a key technical authority collaborating directly with top-tier AI labs, academic institutions, and enterprise partners. Key Responsibilities 1. Frontier AI Safety & Evaluation Research Design, build, and deploy new evaluation frameworks, benchmarks, and "Agentic Safety Gyms" to measure model capabilities, vulnerabilities, and alignment across diverse risk domains (e.g., Hate Speech, Misinformation, Elections Preparedness, IP/Copyright, Child Safety). Develop advanced adversarial prompting methodologies, red-teaming strategies, and behavioral suites to stress-test Large Language Models (LLMs), Multimodal systems, and AI Agents. Investigate emerging safety risks, including model persuasion, manipulation, sycophancy, bias, and jailbreaking tactics across multimodal and autonomous architectures. 2. Research Leadership & Outbound Impact Lead hig
