Research Scientist, GenAI Safety Evaluations - Computer Vision

New York, NY

The GenAI Evaluations Foundations team is looking to hire a Research Scientist with Vision experience for the Safety Evaluations Dev team. Safety Evaluations are key to help us both internally align as well as externally share on how the LLM is being safe in its responses to adversarial or unsafe prompts. When our models are safe, we can feel confident and comfortable open-sourcing our models for other developers and our internal product teams to use.Evaluations & benchmarks are what steer AI progress, as we can inject them in all stages of the model training. The sooner we can catch issues, the faster we can fix things resulting in us saving millions of dollars and compute cycles while avoiding harming Meta's reputation in the world. As Llama further builds on its image understanding and image generation modalities, we are looking to hire a Research Scientist who is passionate about Safety and has experience designing evaluations and dataset for Computer vision models.
