Alignment Stress Testing: Identifying assumptions made by particular alignment plans, and red teaming them to see whether they hold About you You have extensive research experience with deep learning and/or foundation models (for example, a PhD in machine learning). You are adept at generating ideas and designing experiments, and implementing these in Python with real AI systems. You are keen to address risks from foundation models, and have thought about how to do so. You plan for your research to impact production systems on a timescale between "immediately" and "a few years". You are excited to work with strong contributors to make progress towards a shared ambitious goal. With strong, clear communication skills, you are confident engaging technical stakeholders to share research insights tailored to their background. In addition, any of the following would be an advantage: PhD in Computer Science or Machine Learning related field. A track record of publications at venues such as NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, RL/DL, EMNLP, AAAI and UAI. Experience in areas such as Safety, Fairness and Alignment.

Snapshot Our team is responsible for enabling AI systems to reliably work as intended, including identifying potential risks from current and future AI systems, and conducting technical research to mitigate them. As a Research Scientist, you will design, implement, and empirically validate approaches to alignment and risk mitigation, and integrate successful approaches into our best AI systems. About Us Conducting research into any transformative technology comes with responsibility to build mechanisms for safe and reliable development and deployment at every step. Technical safety research at Google DeepMind investigates questions related to evaluations, reward learning, fairness, interpretability, robustness, and generalisation in machine learning systems. Proactive research in these areas is essential to the fulfilment of the long-term goal of Google DeepMind: to build safe and socially beneficial AI systems. Research Scientists work on the forefront of technical approaches to designing systems that reliably function as intended while discovering and mitigating risks, in close collaboration with other AI research groups within and outside of Google DeepMind. Our culture We're a dedicated scientific community, committed to 'solving intelligence' and ensuring our technology is used for widespread public benefit. We've built a supportive and inclusive environment where collaboration is encouraged and learning is shared freely. We don't set limits based on what others think is possible or impossible. We drive ourselves and inspire each other to push boundaries and achieve ambitious goals. We constantly iterate on our workplace experience with the goal of ensuring it encourages a balanced life. From excellent office facilities through to extensive manager support, we strive to support our people and their needs as effectively as possible. Roles We are seeking research scientists for our Gemini Safety and AGI Safety & Alignment (ASAT) teams. Gemini Safety Gemini Safety is seeking research scientists to contribute to the following areas: Pretraining In this role you will investigate new techniques to improve the safety behavior of Gemini via pretraining interventions. You will conduct empirical studies on model behavior, analyze model performance across different scales, experiment with synthetic datasets, data weighting, and related techniques. You should enjoy working with very large scale datasets and have an empirical mindset. Text output (core Gemini, reasoning models, Search AI mode, etc) This role is focused on post training safety. You will be part of a very fast paced, intense effort at the heart of Gemini to improve safety and helpfulness for the core model, and help adapt the model to specific use cases such as reasoning or search. Red teaming and adversarial resilience In this role, you will build and apply automated red teaming via our most capable models, find losses and vulnerabilities in our Gen AI products, including Gemini itself, reasoning models, image and video generation, and whatever else we are building. You may also work to improve resilience to jailbreaks and adversarial prompts across models and modalities, driving progress on a fundamentally unsolved problem with serious implications for future safety. Image and video generation This role is about safety for image and video generation, including Imagen, Veo, and Gemini. You will design evaluations for safety and fairness, improve the safety behavior of the relevant models working closely with the core modeling teams, and design mitigations outside the model (e.g. external classifiers). AGI Safety & Alignment (ASAT) Our AGI Safety & Alignment team is seeking research scientists to contribute to the following areas. Applied Interpretability The focus of this role is to put insights from model internals research into practice on both safety in Gemini post-training and dangerous capability evaluations in support of our Frontier Safety Framework . Key responsibilities: Rapid research ideation, iteration and production implementation of interpretability applications to address promising use cases. Adapting techniques emerging from collaboration with mechanistic interpretability researchers, as well as using other approaches such as probing and training data attribution. Inventing novel methods to address novel frontier AI advances. AGI Safety Research In this role you will advance AGI safety & alignment research within one of our priority areas. Candidates should have expertise in the area they apply to. We are also open to candidates who could lead a new research area with clear impact on AGI safety & alignment. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: Dangerous Capability Evaluations: Designing evaluations for dangerous capabilities for use in the Frontier Safety Framework , particularly for automation of ML R&D Safety cases: Producing conceptual arguments backed by empirical evidence that a specific AI system is safe Alignable Systems Design: Prototyping AI systems that could plausibly support safety cases Externalized Reasoning: Understanding the strengths and limitations of monitoring the "out loud" chain of thought produced by modern LLMs Amplified Oversight: Supervising systems that may outperform humans Interpretability: Understanding the internal representations and algorithms in trained LLMs, and using this knowledge to improve safety Robustness: Expanding the distribution on which LLMs are trained to reduce out-of-distribution failures Monitoring: Detecting dangerous outputs and responding to them appropriately Control Evaluations: Designing and running red team evaluations that conservatively estimate risk from AI systems under the assumption that they are misaligned. Alignment Stress Testing: Identifying assumptions made by particular alignment plans, and red teaming them to see whether they hold About you You have extensive research experience with deep learning and/or foundation models (for example, a PhD in machine learning). You are adept at generating ideas and designing experiments, and implementing these in Python with real AI systems. You are keen to address risks from foundation models, and have thought about how to do so. You plan for your research to impact production systems on a timescale between "immediately" and "a few years". You are excited to work with strong contributors to make progress towards a shared ambitious goal. With strong, clear communication skills, you are confident engaging technical stakeholders to share research insights tailored to their background. In addition, any of the following would be an advantage: PhD in Computer Science or Machine Learning related field. A track record of publications at venues such as NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, RL/DL, EMNLP, AAAI and UAI. Experience in areas such as Safety, Fairness and Alignment.
