- Evaluate and grade submitted threat responses with special attention to source reliability, analytic reasoning, stated limitations, and actionable utility.
- Identify and flag instances of over-refusal, ensuring legitimate threat analysis is not unnecessarily declined.
- Document and clarify challenging edge cases involving nation-state operations and other advanced threats.
- Provide concise written and verbal feedback to support the continuous improvement of AI threat assessment capabilities.
What you need

Nice to have
- Substantial experience in cyber threat intelligence, particularly where nation-state operations intersect with advanced cyber threats.
- Expertise in distinguishing between legitimate defensive/analytic activities and impermissible offensive or surveillance-focused requests.
- Background in threat-actor attribution, APT tracking, or exposure to adversary tactics and techniques.
- Demonstrated proficiency in authoring clear, structured written content in English and communicating complex concepts verbally.
- Experience mentoring, teaching, or leading professionals in threat intelligence disciplines.
- Prior participation in AI system evaluation, red-teaming, or related quality assurance projects is a plus.
