The AI Security Institute is the world's largest and best-funded team dedicated to understanding advanced AI risks and translating that knowledge into action. We're in the heart of the UK government with direct lines to No. 10, and we work with frontier developers and governments globally. We're here because governments are critical for advanced AI going well, and AISI is uniquely positioned to mobilize them. With our resources and the UK government's unique agility and international influence, this is the best place to shape both AI development and government action. Research Scientist - Chem Bio AI Security Institute London, UK About the AI Security Institute The AI Security Institute (AISI), launched at the 2023 Bletchley Park AI Safety Summit, is the world's first state-backed organisation dedicated to advancing AI security for the public interest. Our mission is to assess and mitigate risks from frontier AI systems, including cyber attacks on critical infrastructure, AI-enhanced chemical and biological threats, large-scale societal disruptions, and potential loss of control over increasingly powerful AI. In just one year, we've assembled one of the largest and most respected research teams, featuring renowned scientists and senior researchers from leading AI labs such as Anthropic, DeepMind, and OpenAI. At AISI, we're building the premier institution for impacting both technical AI safety and AI governance. We conduct cutting-edge research, develop novel evaluation tools, and provide crucial insights to governments, companies, and international partners. By joining us, you'll collaborate with the brightest minds in the field, directly shape global AI policies, and tackle complex challenges at the forefront of technology and ethics. Whether you're a researcher, engineer, or policy expert, at AISI, you're not just advancing your career - you're positioned to have significant impact in the age of artificial intelligence. ABOUT AISI'S CHEM-BIO WORKSTREAM You will be part of the Chem-Bio (CB) Team in AISI's Research Unit, a multidisciplinary team comprised of several technical workstreams and a strategy and delivery function (which serves as an impact-multiplier for our technical outputs) . The CB team's technical work plan is overseen by the CB Workstream Lead, who will also serve as the line manager for this role. Our team's mission is to advance the security science of advanced AI models including LLMs and more specialized AI models within biology and chemistry and to equip policymakers with an empirical understanding of security-relevant AI capabilities, specifically at the intersection of AI with biology and chemistry. We work closely across AISI, HMG, and with external experts, to make sure our research has real-world impacts on AI safety and chemical and biological security through policy recommendations. You will lead technical work on thresholds, ecosystem engagement, and conceptual research on mitigations. This may involve defining what AI capabilities would indicate increased risks, leading on research to understand how the academic/industry ecosystem uses different AI tools, or considering what content would be appropriate for an LLM to refuse. Given the sensitivity of our work, we will need someone who either holds, or is able to attain , Developed Vetting (DV) and any continued employment will be conditional on earning and maintaining this level of clearance. More detail on Security Clearances can be found on the UK Government website.
