The opportunity
The Preparedness Engineering team is responsible for building and operating safeguards for frontier model risks, to safely enable advanced capabilities while detecting and limiting harm.
What you'll do
Lead a team of software engineers building detection + mitigation systems for frontier model harms.
Set the technical roadmap and execution strategy: prioritize, design, ship, iterate, measure impact.
Build production systems: services, pipelines, tooling, instrumentation, and automation that scale with frontier model usage.
Partner deeply with Research and Product to translate evolving model: capabilities into concrete tests, signals, and mitigations that can be deployed at scale.
Drive strong engineering fundamentals: architecture, reliability, monitoring, performance, and operational excellence.
Hire and grow an exceptional team across backend, data systems, and applied ML engineering domains as needed.
What they're looking for
- Anticipate what breaks at scale as agentic workflows become more capable.
- Experience building systems in adversarial, fast-evolving environments
- Thrive in high context environments
- Are comfortable with ambiguity and novelty
