Safeguards Enforcement Analyst, Chem & Explosives Harms

Key Responsibilities

• Enforce Usage Policies with a specific focus on detecting and mitigating potential chemical and explosives risks and harmful use of AI systems.
• Own enforcement monitoring workflows for the chemical and explosives harm area, improving end-to-end detection, investigation, triage, and escalation processes.
• Monitor and analyze platform activity to identify emerging patterns related to chemical and explosives threats (within the broader CBRNE landscape) that may require policy updates or enforcement action.
• Design and architect automated enforcement systems and review workflows that scale effectively while maintaining high accuracy across a technically complex content surface.
• Conduct thorough investigations of potential violations, gathering and documenting evidence to support enforcement decisions.
• Proactively surface trends and propose improvements to detection methods and review workflows.
• Partner with Engineering and Data Science teams to optimize detection models and automated enforcement systems for policy violations.
• Partner with Policy and Threat Intelligence teams to understand potential exploits and contribute to risk-assessment frameworks.
• Provide enforcement-grounded feedback on policy gaps, and handle escalations and time-sensitive situations related to chemical and explosives policy violations.

Minimum Qualifications

• Degree in a chemistry-related field (e.g., chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science) and/or relevant professional experience.
• Experience in Trust & Safety, content moderation, or policy enforcement at platform scale, including working with generative AI tools to refine and optimize content review and enforcement workflows.
• Experience utilizing AI tools to develop data dashboards for metrics collection in support of continuous improvement efforts.
• Ability to analyze complex, ambiguous situations and make well-reasoned, defensible decisions under time pressure.
• Proactive and self-directed: spot trends, dig in, and ship improvements on your own initiative.
• Clear written communication and ability to translate technical chemistry concepts for diverse audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• Subject matter expertise in chemical and explosives defense, security, WMD/CBRNE non-proliferation, or threat-intelligence.
• Understanding of real-world chemical and explosives risk, including adversary intent, acquisition and weaponization pathways, dual-use concerns, cross-platform threat analysis, and OSINT techniques relevant to weapons of mass destruction.
• Proficiency in SQL and/or other data analysis tools.
• Familiarity with the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), scheduled chemicals, precursor controls, and energetic-materials safety frameworks.

Compensation

• Annual Salary: $245,000—$285,000 USD
