Senior Domain Expert — AI Prompt Engineer

Senior Domain Expert — AI Prompt Engineer

About the Role

We're assembling an elite, cross-disciplinary team of senior professionals and academics to stress-test frontier AI models. Your deep domain knowledge — whether in engineering, medicine, physics, finance, law, history, or any other field — is exactly what's needed to craft expert-level prompts that push AI to its limits and reveal where it falls short.

This is not entry-level evaluation work. This is the all-stars pool. If you've spent 5+ years building real expertise and can translate that into rigorous, creative challenges for the most powerful AI systems in the world, we want to hear from you.
