About the role
Epoch AI is looking for an IT and Security Specialist to own the systems, accounts and access the whole team depends on, and to set the security standards that protect our research and our data. You would decide who can reach what, run the accounts and tools we all work in, find and fix security risks yourself, and work with our engineers and researchers so that our protocols get followed rather than worked around.
