Methodology
Description
Calvin Risk is a Swiss-based start-up helping companies create and manage trustworthy AI that is
aligned with humanity. Founded in 2022 as an ETH Zurich spin-off, the company is building the
most advanced platform for assessing risks associated with AI in commercial use and managing
them throughout the entire product lifecycle. The Calvin platform creates a much-needed
framework for transparency, governance and standardization for enterprises to manage their AI
portfolios, while ensuring that AI remains safe and compliant with the highest ethical standards and
impending regulatory requirements.
This is an opportunity to join a start-up at its earliest stages as an NLP researcher to develop and

innovative, and collaborative environment.
We follow the REEEEF principle as our guideline to success: respect, efficiency, entrepreneurship,

responsibility, integrity, and passion. This is a no-ego, no-BS zone β and weβre committed to
keeping it that way. No matter who you are or where youβre from, you are highly welcome at
