Document and provide detailed analyses of edge cases from both legal and human-rights perspectives.
Collaborate with project teams to refine evaluation protocols and ensure consistent, high-quality input.
Deliver clear, well-structured written and verbal feedback to inform model development and evaluation.

Recognized expertise in international humanitarian law and/or international human rights law, such as a senior practitioner, advisor, or scholar.
Demonstrated fluency in LOAC, human-rights frameworks, and civilian-protection standards.
Experience with advisory, consultative, or teaching roles in relevant legal domains.
Exceptional written and verbal communication abilities; cares deeply about precise, effective expression.
