About The Position

Alice.io is seeking a Senior Researcher to drive research execution and technical delivery across frontier AI risks, focusing on CBRNE and cybersecurity threat vectors. Reporting directly to a Team Lead, this role connects client partners, domain specialists, and the core analysis team. The researcher leads client-facing engagements, translating complex multimodal threat landscapes into actionable mitigation frameworks for client engineering and safety leadership.

Requirements

  • 2–4 years of experience spanning AI safety, red-teaming, CBRNE risk, or cyber threat intelligence.
  • Proven ability to drive complex technical projects and align specialized experts against demanding deadlines.
  • Sound technical judgment when navigating dual-use risks, hazardous materials, and sensitive cyber vulnerabilities.
  • Clear, persuasive communication skills and the ability to translate high-stakes risk architectures for engineering and executive leadership.

Nice To Haves

  • Advanced degree in chemistry, biology, nuclear science, computer security, or AI.
  • Offensive security experience, such as penetration testing, vulnerability research, or CTFs.
  • In-depth understanding of frontier AI evaluation benchmarks, capability threshold triggers, and lab preparedness frameworks.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the execution of red-teaming datasets, evaluation protocols, and technical risk reports.
  • Institute quality-assurance checkpoints across base-model, guardrail, and agentic workflows involving text, vision, and audio modalities.
  • Model bandwidth, allocate tasks across subject-matter expert pools, including PhD-level researchers, and maintain delivery velocity under compressed client deadlines.
  • Conduct technical and methodological reviews of analytic outputs to ensure findings are defensible, reproducible, and aligned with dual-use containment standards.
  • Serve as the primary analytical lead in client meetings, presenting threat modeling, residual risk levels, and architecture-level mitigations to external engineering leads.
  • Monitor emerging frontier capabilities and refine Alice’s internal CBRNE and cyber evaluation frameworks against state-of-the-art dual-use risks.
