Psychology

Scope Of Work

• Develop comprehensive taxonomies for military-use and defense operations within diverse conflict contexts.
• Create dual-use triage frameworks to distinguish between military and civilian applications of technology and knowledge.
• Establish clear boundaries for prohibited assistance under international humanitarian law for AI training and evaluation.
• Design conflict-risk rubrics and scenario-based evaluation tools for assessing operational and ethical implications.
• Evaluate and refine policy-relevant benchmarks for responsible AI model testing in defense and humanitarian contexts.
• Contribute written and verbal analyses articulating complex warfighting, targeting, and IHL concepts for interdisciplinary audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• 5+ years of relevant military, defense analysis, or IHL experience; ideally 8–20 years for senior contributors.
• Advanced degree (e.g., MA, LLM, PhD) or equivalent operational experience in military science, security studies, international law, or related fields.
• High credibility in warfighting, operational planning, targeting law, or humanitarian law application.
• Expertise in interpreting and applying conflict ethics, IHL, and defense policy frameworks in real-world scenarios.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills to convey technical and ethical concepts clearly.
• Experience in research, policy analysis, or advisory roles within military, governmental, legal, or think-tank environments.
• Prior involvement with conflict analysis, war-crimes investigation, or weapons-policy development is a strong plus.
