📝 Tips for Applying to Alice
Highlight specific experience in biosecurity risk assessment or AI safety, using concrete examples of past red-teaming or vulnerability assessments.
Showcase your familiarity with current AI models and their potential biological applications, mentioning any relevant projects or research.
Emphasize your ability to communicate technical biosecurity issues to non-experts, as you'll need to provide actionable feedback to AI engineers.
Tailor your resume to include keywords from the job description, such as 'adversarial red-teaming', 'risk evaluations', and 'model safety alignment'.
Since it's a remote role, demonstrate your ability to work independently and manage time effectively, possibly with examples of remote collaboration.
