4. Design conflict-risk rubrics and scenario-based evaluation tools to assess operational and ethical implications of defense activities.
5. Evaluate and refine policy-relevant benchmarks to ensure responsible testing of AI models in defense and humanitarian contexts.
6. Contribute written and verbal analyses articulating complex warfighting, targeting, and IHL concepts for interdisciplinary audiences.

Preferred Qualifications
