AI Red-Teamer

Why This Role Exists

We believe the safest AI is the one that’s already been attacked — by us. That’s why YO IT Consulting is building a pod of AI Red-Teamers: human data experts who probe AI models with adversarial inputs, surface vulnerabilities, and generate the red-team data that makes AI safer for our customers.

This AI Red-Teamer role may include reviewing AI outputs that touch on sensitive topics such as bias, misinformation, or harmful behaviors. All work is text-based, and participation in higher-sensitivity projects is optional and supported by clear guidelines and wellness resources.

What You’ll Do as an AI Red-Teamer

• Red-team AI models and agents: jailbreaks, prompt injections, misuse cases, exploits.
• Generate high-quality human data: annotate failures, classify vulnerabilities, and flag systemic risks.
• Apply structure: follow taxonomies, benchmarks, and playbooks to keep testing consistent.
• Document reproducibly: produce reports, datasets, and attack cases customers can act on.
• Flex across projects: support different customers, from LLM jailbreaks to socio-technical abuse testing.

Who You Are

• You bring prior red-teaming experience (AI adversarial work, cybersecurity, socio-technical probing).
• You’re curious and adversarial: you instinctively push systems to breaking points.
• You’re structured: you use frameworks or benchmarks, not just random hacks.
• You’re communicative: you explain risks clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• You’re adaptable: thrive on moving across projects and customers.

Nice-to-Have Specialties

• Adversarial ML: jailbreak datasets, prompt injection, RLHF/DPO attacks, model extraction.
• Cybersecurity: penetration testing, exploit development, reverse engineering.
• Socio-technical risk: harassment/disinformation probing, abuse analysis.
• Creative probing: psychology, acting, writing for unconventional adversarial thinking.

What Success Looks Like

• You uncover vulnerabilities automated tests miss.
• You deliver reproducible artifacts that strengthen customer AI systems.
• Evaluation coverage expands: more scenarios tested, fewer surprises in production.

Why Join YO IT Consulting

• Build experience in human data-driven AI red-teaming at the frontier of safety.
• Play a direct role in making AI systems more robust, safe, and trustworthy.

Contract and Payment Terms

• You will be engaged as an independent contractor.
• This is a fully remote role that can be completed on your own schedule.
• Projects can be extended, shortened, or concluded early depending on needs and performance.
• Payments are weekly on Stripe or Wise based on services rendered.
