Job description

Job Description
We have an exciting opportunity for a Lead Research Scientist in AI atUL Research Institutes, within our Digital Safety Research Institute (DSRI). This is a REMOTE opportunity.
The Lead Research Scientist in AI directs advanced research in natural language processing (NLP) and large language models (LLMs) to support Digital Safety's mission. This role leads research in NLP and LLM safety including literature surveys, experimental design, AI/software engineering, data acquisition, data analysis, and documentation necessary to execute comprehensive experimental studies. The Lead Research Scientist establishes research concepts and criteria to resolve major problems in current programs or approaches. Projects require substantial knowledge of state-of-the-art AI/software engineering principals and theories and uses professional concepts and procedures to solve a wide range of research-based problems.
UL Research Institutes:
At UL Research Institutes (ULRI), we expand the boundaries of safety science to create a more secure and sustainable world. For more than a century, we have studied the unintended consequences of innovation, designed solutions to mitigate risk and shared our findings with academia, scientists, manufacturers, and policymakers across industries. We identify critical safety and sustainability issues, asking tough questions because we believe a safer world begins with knowledge.
Build a safer, more secure, and sustainable future with us. Join us and work with our Fire Safety teams who conduct the research required to produce that knowledge and put it into practice.
Digital Safety Research Institute:
The Digital Safety Research Institute (DSRI) addresses unresolved safety risks and emerging dangers in the world's digital ecosystem. We aim to help protect people from unwanted access to personal devices and privacy, algorithms, and disinformation threats by working to create a new digital safety ecosystem.
DSRI is committed to sharing digital safety insights, collaborating with key stakeholders, and offering extensive outreach and education to help support safer digital environments for people everywhere.
What you'll learn and achieve:
