- Create detection frameworks to identify, flag, and evaluate potentially harmful online content and advice related to mental-health crises for minors.
- Design and refine clinical response rubrics and escalation protocols for at-risk individuals in digital environments.
- Collaborate with project leads to ensure that all evaluation benchmarks and guidelines are grounded in current research and clinical best practices.
- Offer insights on CSAM-adjacent policy and online exploitation dynamics, enhancing digital child safety protocols.
- Deliver clear, actionable written and verbal feedback that shapes the ongoing development of AI safety tools and frameworks.
Preferred Qualifications
- Licensed therapist, psychiatrist, clinician, or mental-health professional with direct crisis-care experience.
- 5+ years of focused work in adolescent mental health, suicide prevention, eating-disorder intervention, or related fields; 8–20 years welcomed for senior contributors.
- Demonstrated expertise in clinical risk assessment and intervention in digital or online settings.
- Advanced degree, specialized certification, or equivalent operational experience in mental-health or child safety domains.
- Experience evaluating or implementing CSAM-adjacent policies, or working within child online exploitation prevention initiatives.
