[Hiring] AI Safety & Policy Expert @Jobs for Humanity

Role Description

At TELUS Digital, we believe that safety is a continuous process, not a one-time check. As an AI Safety & Policy Associate, you are the primary guardian of our AI training datasets. You will join our AI Community as a specialist dedicated to identifying, labeling, and mitigating risks at the data level. Your daily work directly prevents harmful AI behaviors before they ever reach a user.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

• Safety Annotation: Evaluate AI-generated responses against strict safety rubrics, flagging content that contains bias, misinformation, or prohibited topics.
• Harmful Content Classification: Categorize various types of "harm" (e.g., hate speech, self-harm, or illegal acts) to help the model understand specific boundary lines.
• Fact-Checking & Grounding: Verify the factual accuracy of model claims using reliable external sources to prevent "hallucinations."
• Guideline Application: Apply complex policy documents to "edge cases"—scenarios where the answer isn't clearly right or wrong—to ensure consistent model alignment.
• Feedback Loop Participation: Report recurring model weaknesses to the Governance Leads to help refine and update our global safety policies.

Qualifications

• English Proficiency: Minimum B1 (Intermediate) level English to follow community guidelines and log safety reports.
• Detail Orientation: An exceptional ability to spot small errors and remain focused during repetitive, high-stakes analysis.

Requirements
