Description

You want to build and run elegant and thorough machine learning experiments to help us understand and steer the behavior of powerful AI systems. You care about making AI helpful, honest, and harmless, and are interested in the ways that this could be challenging in the context of human-level capabilities. You could describe yourself as both a scientist and an engineer. As a Research Engineer on Alignment Science, you'll contribute to exploratory experimental research on AI safety, with a focus on risks from powerful future systems (like those we would designate as ASL-3 or ASL-4 under our Responsible Scaling Policy), often in collaboration with other teams including Interpretability, Fine-Tuning, and the Frontier Red Team.

Qualifications

  • Have significant software, ML, or research engineering experience
  • Have some experience contributing to empirical AI research projects
  • Have some familiarity with technical AI safety research
  • Prefer fast-moving collaborative projects to extensive solo efforts
  • Pick up slack, even if it goes outside your job description
  • Care about the impacts of AI
