AI Safety – Trust & Safety Specialist (Remote)

Why This Role Exists

At Taskify, we believe the foundation of AI safety is high-quality human data. Models cannot evaluate themselves — they need humans who apply structured judgment to complex, nuanced outputs. We’re building a flexible pod of Safety specialists, contributors from both technical and non-technical backgrounds, who will serve as expert data annotators. This pod will annotate and evaluate AI behaviors to ensure the systems are safe. No prior annotation experience is required — instead, we’re seeking individuals capable of making careful, consistent decisions in ambiguous situations.

This role may involve reviewing AI outputs, addressing sensitive topics such as bias, misinformation, or harmful behaviors. All work is text-based, and participation in higher-sensitivity projects is optional and supported by clear guidelines and wellness resources.

What You’ll Do

• Produce high-quality human data by annotating AI outputs against safety criteria (e.g., bias, misinformation, disallowed content, unsafe reasoning, etc.
• Apply harm taxonomies and guidelines consistently, even when tasks are ambiguous
• Document your reasoning to improve guidelines
• Collaborate to provide the human data that powers AI safety research, model improvements, and risk audits

Who You Are

• Experienced in trust & safety, governance, or policy-to-product frameworks
• Familiar with harm taxonomies, safety-by-design principles, or regulatory frameworks such as the EU AI Act or NIST AI RMF
• Skilled at translating abstract policies into concrete evaluation criteria
• Motivated by reducing user harm and ensuring systems are safe, ethical, and compliant
• Examples of past titles: Trust & Safety Analyst, Online Safety Specialist, Policy Researcher, Governance Specialist, UX Researcher, Risk & Policy Associate, Regulatory Affairs Analyst, Safety Policy Manager, Ethics & Compliance Coordinators.

What Success Looks Like

• Your annotations are accurate, high-quality, and consistent, even across ambiguous cases
• You help surface risks early that automated tools miss
• Guidelines and taxonomies improve based on your feedback
• The data you produce directly strengthens AI model safety and complianceWhy Join us

• Work at the frontier of AI safety, providing the human data that shapes how models behave
• Gain experience in a rapidly growing field with direct impact on how labs deploy advanced systems
• Be part of a team committed to making AI systems safer, trustworthy, and aligned with human valuesAbout Taskify
