micro1 is engaging Child & Online Safety Experts to contribute to a high-impact customer project focused on online safety and mental-health support for young people. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This opportunity centers on developing a robust mental-health safety evaluation framework for vulnerable youth online, leveraging your deep knowledge of crisis-care and digital risk assessment.

Scope of Work

  1. Develop comprehensive taxonomies related to self-harm, suicide prevention, eating disorders, and emotional dependency in digital contexts.
  2. Establish best-practice standards for digital support and clinical safety regarding youth and adolescent mental health.
  3. Create detection frameworks to identify, flag, and evaluate potentially harmful online content and advice related to mental-health crises for minors.
  4. Design and refine clinical response rubrics and escalation protocols for at-risk individuals in digital environments.
  5. Collaborate with project leads to ensure that all evaluation benchmarks and guidelines are grounded in current research and clinical best practices.
  6. Offer insights on CSAM-adjacent policy and online exploitation dynamics, enhancing digital child safety protocols.
  7. Deliver clear, actionable written and verbal feedback that shapes the ongoing development of AI safety tools and frameworks.

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Licensed therapist, psychiatrist, clinician, or mental-health professional with direct crisis-care experience.
  2. 5+ years of focused work in adolescent mental health, suicide prevention, eating-disorder intervention, or related fields; 8–20 years welcomed for senior contributors.
  3. Demonstrated expertise in clinical risk assessment and intervention in digital or online settings.
  4. Advanced degree, specialized certification, or equivalent operational experience in mental-health or child safety domains.
  5. Experience evaluating or implementing CSAM-adjacent policies, or working within child online exploitation prevention initiatives.
  6. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex information for diverse audiences.
  7. High credibility and a recognized track record of impact in clinical, crisis-response, or safety evaluation communities.
