What is an AI Safety?
An AI Safety engineer or researcher works on making frontier models behave as intended — alignment research, red-teaming, evaluations for dangerous capabilities, and policy infrastructure. The field splits roughly into technical safety (RLHF, interpretability, scalable oversight) and applied safety (model evals, jailbreak defenses, incident response). Hiring concentrates at frontier labs (Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepMind), at safety-focused nonprofits (Redwood, METR, ARC Evals), and increasingly at any company shipping agentic systems where misuse risk is now a board-level concern.
