title: AI Red Teamer
family: safety
maturity: growing
owns: Adversarially probes deployed AI models and agents for safety, bias, robustness, and security flaws, designing adversarial prompts and attack chains to find the gaps between a model's guardrails and what skilled adversaries can actually extract.
skills: [adversarial prompt design and jailbreak testing][offensive security and cyber kill-chain expertise][bias, robustness, and harmful-capability testing][vulnerability report writing and remediation guidance][multilingual prompt crafting][model output risk assessment]
pay: low: 95000
high: 180000
currency: USD
basis: base
seniority: ic
distinctFrom: Unlike a security engineer (who secures infrastructure) or an AI eval engineer (who measures general quality for shipping), the AI red teamer adversarially attacks deployed models to surface safety, bias, and security vulnerabilities before real adversaries do.
source: Handshake 'AI Red Teamer, Cybersecurity' (Seattle), $130K-$180K
notes: Pay spans junior to senior: Handshake AI Red Teamer (Cybersecurity) $130K-$180K and (LLM Generalist) $95K-$145K; 10a Labs junior $70K-$90K. Frontier-lab AI safety and red-team roles pay far more. The role is borderline between AI operations and security research; included because it secures deployed AI systems.
