What the posting says

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.

SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

Monitor and take appropriate action on content and user behavior that violates SpaceXSI's terms of service with a primary focus on protecting minors

Respond effectively to time-sensitive escalations in high-impact, often ambiguous situations

Process appeals, audit automations, and properly label use cases in the system

Provide labels, annotations, and inputs on projects involving safety protocols, risk scenarios, and policy compliance

Support the delivery of high-quality curated data that reinforces SpaceXSI's rules and ethical alignment

Collaborate with team members to provide feedback on tasks that improve AI's defenses to detect illegal and unethical behavior, as well as align Grok with our rules enforcement

Interpret and apply SpaceXSI safety policies effectively

Commitment to continuous improvement of processes to prioritize safety and risk mitigation

Expertise in data analysis to identify emerging abuse vectors, uncover opportunities for operational efficiencies, and design automations that strengthen enforcement effectiveness and platform safety

Experience working in Trust and Safety for a social media company, leveraging AI or other automation tools

Experience collaborating with child safety organizations (such as NCMEC) and utilizing specialized detection tools or developing classifiers for CSAM/CSE in social media or generative AI platforms

Expertise in red-teaming and adversarial testing of Large Language Models to proactively identify novel abuse vectors, jailbreaks, and safety failure modes, with a proven ability to translate findings into concrete improvements for enforcement systems and platform robustness
