• Run prompt experiments to diagnose issues such as hallucinations, misclassifications, bias, or inconsistent behaviour.
• Help maintain evaluation frameworks for accuracy, safety, and reliability.

AI Case Support & Risk Mitigation

• Support AI‑assisted workflows in resolving medium‑ and high‑risk cases.
• Identify model errors, document patterns, and recommend improvements to reduce operational risk.
• Contribute to operational guardrails and escalation criteria for AI behaviour.

Incident Management & Quality Monitoring

• Flag AI output issues (e.g., inconsistent decisions, low‑confidence outcomes, override trends).
• Participate in incident reviews and help document root‑cause insights.

Policy & Regulatory Alignment

• Ensure AI outputs align with platform policies, MDSS, and relevant regulations (e.g., DSA).
• Work with Policy teams to translate reviewer feedback into clearer prompts and rules.

Feedback Integration & Model Improvement

• Collect feedback from reviewers, policy partners, and operational teams to refine prompts.
• Translate qualitative insights into structured requirements for Engineering and Data Science.

Data Analysis & Experimentation

• Analyze prompt and model performance using SQL or dashboards.
• Track trends such as classifier drift, emerging abuse patterns, or changes in harmful content.
• Contribute data‑backed insights that inform roadmap and workflow updates.

Qualifications Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, AI/ML, Engineering, Policy, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 2+ years of experience in Trust & Safety, content moderation, AI operations, quality, or policy.
• 1+ years experience designing or testing prompts or working with LLMs / classification models.
• 2+ years experience using data tools (e.g. SQL, Python) to evaluate model and prompt performance.

Preferred Qualifications

• Understanding of Trust & Safety policies, global regulations (e.g., DSA), and safety standards.
• Ability to analyze model outputs and identify patterns, gaps, and risks.
• Strong written communication skills for writing clear, reproducible prompt instructions.
• Familiarity with evaluation metrics (precision, recall, FPR, FDR) and model quality testing.
• Experience collaborating with Product, Engineering, Policy, or Data Science teams.
