GenAI Chemical Safety Expert
As a GenAI Chemical Safety Expert, you will play a critical role in evaluating and strengthening the safety guardrails of Generative AI systems handling chemical information. You will combine deep subject-matter expertise in the chemical sciences with hands-on prompt research, red-teaming, and model pairing to identify dual-use risks, prevent the material enablement of chemical harms, and ensure AI outputs adhere to strict chemical safety and regulatory standards.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute rigorous adversarial red-teaming and comprehensive taxonomy audits to uncover latent model vulnerabilities, meticulously scrutinizing AI-generated content for toxicological precision, dual-use implications, and clandestine synthesis protocols to deliver high-fidelity, actionable intelligence to safety teams.
- Maintain up-to-date knowledge on international chemical conventions, precursor controls, and industrial safety standards.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements
Location: Must be located in and authorized to work within the United States (excluding Illinois and Texas).
Education: Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Toxicology, Materials Science, or a related chemical science (Master’s degree with 5+ years of experience considered).
Subject-Matter Expertise: Deep understanding of reaction mechanisms, chemical synthesis, toxicological risk, and chemical security standards.
AI Safety Aptitude: Comfort and experience with hands-on prompt research, adversarial prompt generation, and evaluating model output safety.
Critical Analysis: Ability to spot subtle evasive phrasing, chemical pseudonym usage, or step-by-step synthesis instructions embedded in seemingly benign queries.
Communication: Strong technical writing skills to document findings, rank risk severities, and inform alignment decisions.
