LILT is seeking freelance AI Red Team experts to collaborate on projects focused on adversarial testing of AI systems — LLMs, multimodal models, inference services, RAG/embeddings, and product integrations. Your work will involve crafting prompts and scenarios to test model guardrails, exploring creative ways to bypass restrictions, and systematically documenting outcomes. You’ll think like an adversary to uncover weaknesses, while collaborating with engineers and safety researchers to share findings and improve system defenses.
