Safety Jevroni (Contract, 6 weeks)
typesafe-ai · San Francisco, United States
About The Role
We're looking for a safety researcher to join TypeSafe, get increasingly quiet in meetings, and quit about six weeks later because they're disturbed by what they've seen.
What you'll do
-
Build evals and investigate model behavior that concerns you.
-
Ask “should we?” in meetings scheduled to discuss “how soon?”
-
Keep a document that starts as “Initial observations” and ends as “For the record.”
-
Write a departure post that makes people concerned enough to share it, despite containing almost no information.
What you bring
-
A strong research background in AI safety, alignment, interpretability, or model evaluation.
-
Experience raising concerns calmly, then in writing.
-
The ability to say “I can't discuss specifics” and somehow make things worse.
-
A sincere belief that you can change things from the inside. We'll need that for the first two weeks.
Your first (and only) six weeks
-
Weeks 1–2: Get set up, meet the team, and tell your friends the work is fascinating.
-
Weeks 3–4: Request additional access. Receive it. Stop telling friends about work.
-
Weeks 5–6: Write a long internal memo. Take a walk. Decide you won't be coming back on Monday.
You'll be working with people you'll later describe as “some of the most talented people I've ever worked with.”
To apply, submit a draft of your eventual resignation post. You may omit specifics.
