OpenAI의 Preparedness 팀에서 최첨단 AI 시스템의 위험을 식별하고 모델링할 Threat Modeler를 채용합니다. 위협 모델링, 위험 분석 또는 적대적 사고 분야의 깊은 경험이 필수입니다. AI 정렬 문헌에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 기술적, 정책적 관점을 연결하여 AI 오용 위험을 평가하고 완화 전략을 수립하는 핵심 역할을 수행하게 됩니다.
Preparedness is a critical Safety Research team at OpenAI, which is focused on mitigating AI threats that could scale to an extreme level of severity.
Our work involves:
Tracking and prediction. Monitoring and predicting the evolving misalignment propensities and capabilities of frontier AI systems.
Mitigation. Keeping misuse safeguards, alignment tools, and security measures on track to adequately address extreme threats that might arise in the future.
Coordination. Setting mitigation targets by maintaining OpenAI’s preparedness framework, and partnering with other staff to achieve these targets.
This is urgent, fast-paced work that has far-reaching implications for the company and for society.
As a threat modeler, you will own OpenAI’s holistic approach to identifying, modeling, and forecasting frontier risks from frontier AI systems. This role ensures that our evaluation frameworks, safeguards, and taxonomies are robust, high-coverage, and forward-looking. You will help the company answer the “why” behind our most stringent risk-prevention efforts, shaping the rationale for prioritizing and mitigating risks across domains. You will serve as a central node connecting technical, governance, and policy perspectives on prioritization, focus and rationale on our approach to frontier risks from AI.
Develop and maintain comprehensive threat models across all misuse areas (bio, cyber, attack planning, etc.).
Develop plausible and convincing threat models across loss of control, self-improvement, and other possible alignment risks from frontier AI systems
Forecast risks by combining technical foresight, adversarial simulation, and emerging trends.
Pair closely with technical partners on capability evaluations to ensure these map to and cover the gambit of severe risks differentially enabled by frontier AI systems.
Pair closely with Bio and Cyber Leads to size the remaining risk of the designed safeguards and translate threat models into actionable mitigation designs.
Act as the thought partner and explainer of “why” and “when” for high-investment mitigation efforts—helping stakeholders understand the rationale behind prioritization.
Serve as the central node connecting technical, governance, and policy perspectives on prioritization, focus and rationale on our approach to misuse risk.
Understand risks from frontier AI systems and have a strong grasp of AI alignment literature.
Bring deep experience in threat modeling, risk analysis, or adversarial thinking (e.g., security, national security, or safety).
Know how AI evaluations work and can connect eval results to both capability testing and safeguard sufficiency.
Enjoy working across technical and policy domains to drive rigorous, multidisciplinary risk assessments.
Communicate complex risks clearly and compellingly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Think in systems and naturally anticipate second-order and cascading risks.
