Day to Day:
One of Insight Global’s clients is seeking an AI Quality and Safety Engineer to join their team. In this role, the engineer will review system dashboards to monitor AI models in production, evaluating them for anomalies, performance drift, and safety alerts. They will assess potential risks within AI systems, including harmful outputs or adversarial attacks, and implement safeguards to prevent unintended consequences. They will also conduct stress tests on new models to validate accuracy, fairness, and robustness, as well as perform risk assessments to identify potential failure scenarios and document mitigation strategies. Additional responsibilities include ensuring models comply with regulatory standards such as GDPR, maintaining audit logs, and updating safety documentation to support transparency.
