Security Engineer (Corporate IT)

About

Resolution ========================

Resolution does research on how to align artificial superintelligence (ASI). ASI may be developed in the next few years, but it is unclear whether alignment is on track to be ready in the same timeframe. We aim at higher *a priori* confidence in aligned outcomes by pursuing a portfolio of theory and empirics bets, any one of which — if it succeeds — would meaningfully advance the field. We invest heavily in research automation to accelerate progress, and we believe that stronger alignment theory unlocks higher automation: more principled approaches give us better filters for which directions of automated research are promising.

Resolution was founded in 2026 by researchers from UK AISI's Alignment Team, who ran the £30m Alignment Project, and Timaeus, who pioneered applying singular learning theory to alignment.

About the Team

==================

Resolution's work will involve sensitive frontier-relevant research and partnerships with AI labs. This role exists both to protect that work and to *enable* it: good security is what makes deeper lab partnerships possible. We draw a distinction between two closely related areas of security:

• Research & infrastructure security. Securing how research actually runs: CI/CD pipelines, automated research agents, multi-cloud compute, and code/data/model-weight handling.
• Corporate IT & security. The endpoint, identity, and collaboration scaffolding a distributed research org runs on, in combination with the compliance frameworks that unlock lab partnerships.

This role focuses on the latter, covering security on the operational side of the organization. You would report to senior leadership and work closely with our security and operations teams (as well as with our engineering team).

In practice, we expect to grow the security team one hire at a time, so your initial set of responsibilities is likely to sp...
