• Create, document, and maintain policies and guidelines governing AI interactions, content handling, and tool workflows.
• Develop knowledge of specific tool workflows and encode that knowledge into prompts and policies.
• Evaluate typical user actions, workflows, and edge cases across supported tools and services.
• Apply safety and compliance guidelines, including content-filtering requirements.
• Identify harmful, abusive, unsafe, or policy-violating AI outputs.
• Evaluate AI responses for critical reasoning quality, correctness, parameter usage, and policy adherence.
• Validate prompts and AI responses across multiple languages and locales, with attention to nuance, accuracy, and clarity.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and safety teams to improve prompts, policies, and workflows based on evaluation findings.
