  3. Develop threat models, systems, and methodologies for measuring the cybersecurity capabilities of models.
  4. Drive the adoption of AI-forward security methodologies within OpenAI and across the broader ecosystem.
  5. Collaborate with colleagues across OpenAI on security research.
  6. Experiment with new tools and technologies to expand the effectiveness of security measures implemented within the company, ensuring robustness and scalability of security solutions.

You might thrive in this role if you:

  1. Have a track record of delivering meaningful results in security, privacy, and/or AI research.
  2. Have an in-depth understanding of modern AI concepts including language modeling and deep learning.
  3. Strong software development proficiency including systems programming and at least one of Python, Golang, or similar.
  4. Proven track record of developing high-quality, scalable, and secure applications.
