Overview
micro1 seeks AI Jailbreak & Prompt-Injection Security Experts for a contract role supporting a customer initiative in AI safety and robustness. Your work will directly influence how next-generation models learn and reason by providing high-quality, real-world input. You'll focus on ethical jailbreaks, LLM red teaming, prompt injection, and tool-use abuse scenarios. No prior AI experience is required; domain knowledge in security is what matters.
What You'll Do6
- Design and implement advanced methods for evaluating AI system safety, with emphasis on ethical jailbreaks, LLM red teaming, prompt injection, and tool-use abuse.
- Create cross-domain elicitation strategies to uncover multi-turn and complex adversarial bypass patterns in AI models.
- Develop, maintain, and update regression test suites that systematically test for jailbreak susceptibility and prompt-injection vulnerabilities.
- Construct evaluation frameworks that stress-test AI models against real-world adversarial threats to enhance system robustness.
- Collaborate with technical stakeholders to translate security findings into actionable improvements for model safety and risk mitigation.
- Document methodologies, findings, and best practices in clear written reports and presentations for technical and non-technical audiences.
Requirements7
- 2+ years of expertise in adversarial machine learning, LLM red teaming, AI safety evaluation, or a closely related security domain.
- Proven experience researching, testing, or uncovering vulnerabilities related to ethical jailbreaks, prompt injection, tool-use abuse, or adversarial AI attacks.
- Advanced degree (PhD, MS) in computer science, cybersecurity, machine learning, or a relevant discipline, or equivalent operational/professional background.
- High credibility and recognition within the AI security or adversarial ML community, such as published research, open-source tools, or conference presentations.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a strong focus on clear documentation and collaborative problem-solving.
- Prior participation in multi-disciplinary projects or cross-functional AI safety initiatives is a plus.
- Familiarity with current LLM architectures, prompt engineering techniques, and security assessment tools is highly desirable.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate has hands-on experience in adversarial ML or LLM red teaming, with a track record of uncovering jailbreak or prompt-injection vulnerabilities. You hold an advanced degree or equivalent experience and have contributed to the AI security community through research, tools, or talks. Strong documentation and communication skills are essential.
