International Humanitarian Law Advisor

Role Title: International Humanitarian Law Advisor Role Type: Contractor (~15 hrs/wk) Location: Remote Our team is engaging International Humanitarian Law Advisors to contribute to a customer project focused on the rigorous application of IHL and human-rights principles. 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 is an opportunity to make a tangible impact by shaping and verifying nuanced lawful/unlawful and civilian-protection boundary cases at the forefront of AI and legal reasoning. Scope of Work Develop and author boundary case scenarios on international humanitarian law, civilian protection, proportionality, and prohibited conduct. Review and validate legal boundary lines within project taxonomies to ensure alignment with current IHL and human-rights frameworks. Assess AI-generated responses for legal reasoning, identification of limitations, and handling of legal uncertainty. Identify and flag both overly cautious refusals of legitimate queries and insufficient caution where civilian protection is critical. Document and provide detailed analyses of edge cases from both legal and human-rights perspectives. Collaborate with project teams to refine evaluation protocols and ensure consistent, high-quality input. Deliver clear, well-structured written and verbal feedback to inform model development and evaluation. Preferred Qualifications Recognized expertise in international humanitarian law and/or international human rights law, such as a senior practitioner, advisor, or scholar. Demonstrated fluency in LOAC, human-rights frameworks, and civilian-protection standards. Experience with advisory, consultative, or teaching roles in relevant legal domains. Exceptional written and verbal communication abilities; cares deeply about precise, effective expression. Track record of documenting and analyzing complex legal scenarios, including ambiguous or edge cases. Background in operational advising (e.g., ICRC, UN agencies, tribunals, or commissions of inquiry) is a plus. Familiarity or experience with AI governance or evaluation projects is advantageous. #J-18808-Ljbffr Frontier AI Lab
