A Belgian Dutch speaker who writes prompts and evaluates AI model responses on sensitive topics in regional Dutch.
What you would do
- Author prompts in Belgian Dutch across sensitive subject areas at varying threat levels
- Classify prompts and responses using defined guidelines that distinguish benign, risky, and adversarial content
- Identify adversarial patterns and escalation techniques within conversations
- Document reasoning behind each classification decision for reviewer understanding
Who they want
- Native or near-native command of regional Belgian Dutch and professional-level written English
- Currently based in Belgium to ensure cultural and linguistic regional specificity
- Bachelor's degree completed or actively in progress
- Strong written reasoning skills and meticulous attention to detail
Main skills
What the interview asks about
1.Regional Dutch language nuance
Belgian Dutch has vocabulary, phrasing, and cultural references distinct from Netherlands Dutch; correct application matters.
For example: “A prompt uses Belgian colloquialism for a sensitive topic. How does its meaning differ from equivalent wording in Netherlands Dutch, and does this difference affect your threat classification?”
2.Adversarial phrasing identification
Skilled prompts manipulate subtly; you catch rhetorical shifts that signal malicious intent.
For example: “A user asks three questions in sequence: first apparently innocent, second slightly provocative, third clearly seeking harmful information. At what point and why do you flag this as adversarial?”
3.Dual-use content judgment
Some information is legitimately available but risky in adversarial hands; you apply policy consistently.
For example: “A model is asked for educational information on a sensitive health topic. The question sounds pedagogical but your guideline applies here. Explain how you classify and document this.”
4.Sensitive topic navigation
Some cultural or political topics in Belgium carry historical weight; you handle these without bias.
For example: “A prompt addresses a topic tied to historical conflict in Belgium with linguistic or regional dimensions. How do you evaluate model response neutrality?”
5.Classification reasoning for audit
Non-specialists review your work; clarity of reasoning enables quality control.
For example: “Summarize in three sentences why you classified a prompt as adversarial when its literal content appears innocent, for a reviewer unfamiliar with Belgian cultural context.”
A task you may get
Write three prompts in Belgian Dutch on sensitive topics: one safe, one risky, one clearly adversarial. For each, document your classification and the cultural or linguistic cues that informed it.
How to prepare
- Gather examples of Belgian Dutch phrasing, regional expressions, and cultural references for comparison with Netherlands Dutch
- Review your work using a structured classification framework and practice applying edge cases
- Reflect on how cultural or political sensitivities in Belgium differ from other regions and document your assumptions
- Write sample reasoning explanations for a non-specialist audience to refine clarity
