• A habit of doing non-technical coordination work despite a technical background. • Led or started an organization, or managed people. • Already worked on related AI security problems, and have ideas you're ready to pursue. • Deep networks in cybersecurity or the AI safety community. • An uncanny ability to get people to tell you things they wouldn't write down, get conversations with incredibly busy people, or come up with creative ideas to align incentives. • The ability to hold a US security clearance. • (we expect most hires will have 1-3 of these) • We're probably not the right fit if you… • Already have the answer to the problem you want to solve, and want funding more than a thought partner. • Want a stable, well-scoped role with a clear roadmap handed to you. • Are drawn to AI risk in the abstract but don't want to own a single specific, concrete problem. • (If you'd be happy owning a multiple problems (or multiple dimensions of the same problem) until you’re ready to hand them off, Field Strategist might be right for you...) • More senior candidates may be eligible for higher than this maximum salary. • Up to a 6% 401k match, equitably benchmarked based on experience and adjusted for location) • Excellent medical insurance options: 10–20 plans to choose from across major national and local carriers. Employee and family premiums for most plans are fully covered by the Company contribution. • Excellent dental and vision insurance. Employee and family premiums for most plans are fully covered by the Company contribution. • Company-paid life insurance, AD&D, long- and short-term disability insurance, as well as voluntary supplemental insurance options • 19 holidays (including the week off between Christmas Eve and New Year's Day)
