Jobs at 10a Labs

Designs scientific benchmarks and evaluations for advanced AI models, focusing on virology, microbiology, biological misuse risks, and biosecurity. Responsibilities include red-teaming models, assessing AI-generated scientific outputs, developing evaluation rubrics, analyzing results, and collaborating with AI researchers and engineers. The role requires deep biological research expertise, technical writing, and the ability to evaluate AI capabilities and risks. This is a remote U.S. contract role with occasional travel and in-person onboarding.

Conduct adversarial testing of AI models, agents, and applications; develop prompts, attack strategies, and test cases; analyze vulnerabilities and failure modes; document actionable findings; support evaluation frameworks and taxonomies; research emerging AI threats; collaborate with technical experts; and develop front-end dashboards and visualizations.

Engineering Fellows apply technical skills to applied research and engineering projects involving AI safety, threat intelligence, data processing, visualization, cloud infrastructure, machine learning, and software development. Fellows may specialize in software engineering, data engineering, or machine learning, contributing to experimentation, red teaming, model deployment, data architecture, backend systems, and agentic AI applications.

Build and maintain Python backend services and AI-assisted applications for threat investigations. Partner with investigators, integrate APIs and AI capabilities, troubleshoot production issues, improve reliability and observability, and participate in rotating on-call coverage. Own engineering solutions from requirements through deployment and ongoing support, including work across backend services, data pipelines, asynchronous workflows, and platform operations.

Develop hands-on workshops, curricula, developer documentation, API and SDK guides, technical exercises, and instructor materials focused on LLMs, AI developer tools, APIs, and vector databases. Translate complex technical concepts into accessible learning experiences, collaborate with engineering, product, and research teams to validate accuracy, test exercises, identify documentation gaps, and independently manage content development.

Conducts adversarial red team assessments of AI systems, applications, and infrastructure. Develops attack strategies, prompts, attack chains, and testing methodologies to uncover vulnerabilities, unsafe behaviors, and security risks. Analyzes system outputs, documents findings, communicates risk, and recommends mitigations while collaborating with engineering and research teams. Requires cybersecurity expertise, scripting ability, Linux proficiency, and familiarity with security tools and monitoring platforms.

Own full-cycle recruiting for technical and mission-driven roles, including sourcing, interviewing, onboarding, candidate experience, and closing. Build talent pipelines, structured interview processes, evaluation rubrics, recruiting metrics, and ATS workflows. Support people operations through onboarding, performance reviews, SOPs, vendor coordination, and process improvement while partnering with leadership on workforce planning and hiring strategy.

Build and lead the People function, owning HR operations, employee relations, compliance, performance management, compensation, benefits, HRIS, payroll coordination, immigration, onboarding, and offboarding. Partner with Legal, Finance, Recruiting, Compliance, and leadership to establish scalable policies, develop managers, support organizational design, and build a high-performance culture in a rapidly growing technology company.

Build and automate secure, reproducible cloud infrastructure and tooling to support adversarial testing of AI systems. Collaborate with red teamers and engineers to reproduce, remediate, and simulate attacks, perform threat modeling and security reviews, and integrate security across the development lifecycle.

The Machine Learning Engineer will design, build, evaluate, and deploy ML systems, collaborating on projects in safety, security, and intelligence applications, while owning projects from initial research through to production.
