Safeguards Analyst / IAEA or Euratom Inspector
Neon
$65 – $75 · as listed
Remote writing work testing AI safety in the nuclear safeguards domain. Neon is seeking advanced-level professionals with expertise in nuclear materials or international safeguards (IAEA/Euratom background valued) to help evaluate frontier AI models. You'll create technically rigorous, single-turn prompts designed to test whether AI systems can distinguish between legitimate technical inquiries and requests with genuine misuse potential—refusing the latter while answering the former appropriately. The work is task-based and remote, suited for specialists who understand both the technical landscape and the real-world stakes of nuclear security. Compensation is listed at $65–$75 per task.
This role combines AI safety evaluation with deep domain expertise. Rather than traditional inspection work, you'll apply your safeguards knowledge to improve AI alignment by identifying edge cases and weaknesses in model behavior. It's ideal for professionals looking to contribute to AI safety initiatives without relocating or committing to full-time employment.
