TLDR. Feel free to check my posts, and see if we can collaborate to contribute to a better world.

Skills & background. I have posted about AI risk skepticism, biorisk skepticism, cause prioritisation, climate risk skepticism, cluelessness, cost-effectiveness analyses, criticism of effective altruist causes, criticism of longtermism and existential risk studies, criticism of work in effective altruism, crucial considerations, distribution of cost-effectiveness, estimation of existential risk, existential risk, Fermi estimates, forecasting, impact assessment, indirect long-term effects, meat-eater problem, nuclear risk skepticism, red teaming, supervolcanoes risk skepticism, and transparency^[1]. See my posts for details.

Location/remote. I live in Lisbon, Portugal, and am willing to relocate or work remotely.

Availability & type of work. I can start in 1 month, and am interested in part-time volunteering, and part-time or full-time paid roles. 

Resume/CV/LinkedIn. You are welcome to check my Europass profile (as it stood on 31 January 2024).

Email/contact. Feel free to send me a direct message on the Forum, or message me via LinkedIn.

Other notes. I typically ask for a salary of 20 $/h, which is roughly equal to 2 times the global real GDP per capita. However, I also have to think the work is more cost-effective than writing EA Forum posts, which I guess is where I am spending my time at the margin.

Questions:

• Do you have any thoughts on the value (or lack thereof) of my posts?
• Do you have any ideas for posts you think I would like to write?
• Are there any opportunities you think would be a good fit for me which are either not listed on 80,000 Hours' job board, or are listed there, but you guess I might be underrating them?

   I have listed these topics alphabetically.

TLDR: Graduating Stanford economics Ph.D. primarily interested in research or grantmaking work to improve the long-term future or animal welfare.

Skills & background: My job-market details, primarily aimed at economics academia, are on my website. I am an applied microeconomist (meaning empirical work and applied theory), with my research largely falling in political economy (econ + poli sci), public economics (econ of policy impacts), and behavioral/experimental economics.

I have been involved in effective altruism for 10+ years, including having been a Senior Programme Associate at Longview Philanthropy in 2022, Vice Board Chair at Animal Charity Evaluators (board member 2020-present), Global Priorities Fellow with the Global Priorities Institute and the Forethought Foundation (2019-2020), and a Senior Research Analyst at Innovations for Poverty Action and the Northwestern Global Poverty Research Lab (RA 2014-2018).

Some examples of my work:

Persistence in Policy: Evidence from Close Votes

• This is my economics "job market paper."

AGI Catastrophe and Takeover: Some Reference Class-Based Priors (Forum post)

• This won a Second Prize in the Open Philanthropy AI Worldviews Contest

Does suffering dominate enjoyment in the animal kingdom? An update to welfare biology

I also organized an Economics of Animal Welfare session at the Stanford Institute for Theoretical Economics.

Location/remote: Flexible. I am currently in the Bay Area but would be happy with other U.S. metropolitan areas and open to the UK as well. I'm happy to be remote but prefer to have somewhere to work around other people.

Availability & type of work: I am looking for a full-time job after I graduate in June 2023. I can potentially start part-time as early as March. I plan to take some time off sometime in the next year.

I will probably decide as to my next step within a month or two.

Resume/CV/LinkedIn: LinkedIn; CV

Email/contact: zdgroff@gmail.com

Other notes: The problem area I am most interested in working on is what can be done to improve the long-term future, if anything, beyond extinction risk. My ideal job would probably involve a mix of research and making things happen.

Email/contact: DM me here

Other notes: I'm interested in a large variety of roles. Anything high-impact and quantitative or infectious disease-related I am likely to be interested in. Examples: researcher at a biosecurity organisation; forecasting-esque roles at any organisation; grantmaking. I'm also interested in hearing from people on specific projects relevant to my interests, even if a permanent role is not available at this time.

Questions: where are we bottlenecked in the biosecurity space? What are the most effective interventions currently?

Update: I joined FAR AI in May!

TLDR: I'm looking for a challenging opportunity in AI Governance, where I can apply my expertise in areas like GDPR implementation and developing technical standards for the AI Act. I’d preferably be doing program management but also open to other areas.

Email/contact: kenneth.diao@outlook.com

Other notes: My principal cause areas are animal advocacy and suffering reduction, though I'm also interested in learning more about AI governance. My fuzzy vision for my ultimate role is that it involves doing writing and research which is close enough to the public and policy world to be grounded and have a concrete impact. I'm hoping the next couple of roles are able to help me test my fit and develop aptitudes/capital for reaching that eventual stage.

Questions:

• Is it generally effective to go into academia?
  • Am I a good fit for an academic environment?
• How should timelines (not) impact my decisions?
• How effective is writing for public audiences?
• How can I become a researcher who impacts policy (e.g., working at a think tank)? Do I need a policy or law degree?

Thanks everyone!

TLDR: I write meta-analyses on a contract basis, e.g. here, here, and here. If you want to commission a meta-analysis, and get a co-authored paper to boot, I'd love to hear from you.

TLDR: Looking for part-time, freelance, and/or volunteer work to do in my spare time, probably web application development, to earn money to give to global health-related charities, or to more directly help with global health-related causes.

Availability & Type of Work:  

I have about 15-20 hours per week that I am looking to spend on something altruistic and I am available almost immediately.  By default, I plan on trying to get into freelance web application development/software development, so that I can make extra money, and donate it to particularly cost-effective charities.  I'm mainly interested in global health-related charities, because it is easier to measure and verify their cost-effectiveness than for other types of charities.  Also, I have a bachelor's degree in global health and I've spent a fair amount of time looking into global health beyond that.  So far, I have only donated to the Against Malaria Foundation.

Although I am hoping to make money this way in the long term, in the short term I would also be interested in doing volunteer web application development for an effective altruism-related organization for the purposes of building my portfolio.  I would especially be interested in doing volunteer work for a global health-related organization, and I might be interested in continuing that kind of volunteer work even after I can get paying work elsewhere.

Skills & Background:  My day job is doing web application development for the New York State Education Department and I've been doing that since February of 2016.  I also have a fair amount of experience with video game development, but I'm guessing those skills won't be in demand here.  For more information about my experience, see my resume.  If you would like to see an example of work, please look at my personal website.

Location/Remote:  I am willing to work remotely or in the area of Albany, NY, USA, where I live.  I am not willing to relocate, but I am willing to travel, if it's worth the time.

Cause agnostic, but especially interested in institutional decision-making, animal advocacy, and meta-EA.

My work is characterized by the following 3 pillars:

1. Pluralistic approach - I believe innovation is the offspring of diverse viewpoints. I embrace a collaborative, multifaceted approach to problem-solving and continually seek out insights from a variety of domains to incorporate into my work.
2. Compassionate leadership - I strive to cultivate high-performing, high-integrity teams where every member feels valued and motivated to do their best work. I care deeply about the impact of information flows, infrastructure, and incentives on organizational effectiveness, team synergy, and individual empowerment, and strive to create environments that promote mutual growth and foster collaborative excellence.
3. Impact-driven mindset - For me, success is measured by the positive change we create. I prioritize work that is high-leverage, delivering substantial, positive change with minimal cost.

TLDR: Operations specialist (with a generalist mindset) looking to jump from a corporate career into a full-time EA opportunity, either in operational or executive support roles for impactful organizations/people. 

Skills & background: Fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, I’ve worked for 15 years in operational roles, from project and process management, business improvement, customer experience and journey mapping, business intelligence, among others. Given my philosophy and international relations background, I love doing policy work, and I’ve worked on policy on and off throughout the years on my own private time. The project I’m most proud to be a part of is Akshar Foundation, a non-profit slowly revolutionizing the education system in India.

Location/remote: Lisbon, Portugal. I’d prefer to work remotely since I can adjust well to almost all time-zones.

Availability & type of work: Full-time work but would also consider part-time or contract work. I can start within a couple of weeks of signing a contract.

Email/contact: Please DM me on LinkedIn.

Other notes: I would like to do work in the area of AI, existential risk, or climate change, but am very flexible, given that my principal focus is to support others have as much impact as possible, as a good operations specialist is supposed to. It is not easy to assure hiring managers how someone that’s worked for 12 years in a large corporate environment can adapt to smaller organizations, but the fact is that if anything, it would be a welcome change having my work have impact on people’s lives, and not just on the shareholders’ bottom line.

Questions: I understand that there is a demand for management and operations specialists to work in EA, but how can someone that like me, who has given over 20,000 hours of his career to the corporate world, contribute to EA work? On another note, at which point do we start discussing civil rights for artificial sentiences?

Other notes: I don't have strong preference for cause areas and would be highly attracted to roles reducing AI existential risk, or improving animal welfare and global health, or our understanding of the long-term future. I suspect my comparative advantage is in research roles (broadly defined) and in data science work; technical summaries for AI governance or Evals work might be a comparative advantage.

TLDR: Diverse EA contractor looking for a part-time operations or comms role, remote.

Skills & background: I currently run a local EA group with a grant from OpenPhil as the only paid member. This role includes tasks like organising coworking space and checking our compliance with local charity regulations as well as running events and getting feedback from our members. 

In the past, I've done short-term projects or contractor work for EA organisations. One project I'm particularly proud of was the Tools For Collaborative Truth-Seeking sequence, on which we got feedback that a number of the tools were now being used as part of the regular workflow in some big EA organisations.

Finally, I also work currently as a moderator for the forum, which involves communicating carefully around sensitive topics on a regular basis.

Location/remote: I'm based in Edinburgh, Scotland, and a remote role would be ideal.

Availability & type of work: I'm in the GMT timezone, but am happy to work outside of these hours (though regularly working in e.g. PDT would be a challenge). My ideal role would be around 20h/week, but I'm open to roles with more or fewer hours available.

Resume/CV/LinkedIn: LinkedIn

Email/contact: DM me on the forum.

Other notes: I'm open to any operations or comms/outreach role, but have a preference for AI safety or pandemic prevention organisations.

TLDR: I specialize in the intersection of data analysis and organizational strategy and use my passion and skills for numerical work along with my 10+ years of experience in the private sector to translate statistical insights into real-world impact.

Skills & background: I am posting anonymously as I already have EA employment but will disclose all details to interested hiring managers.

My strengths as reported by others are:
-Briar score of 0.131 compared to the crowd median of 0.246
-Proactiveness/self-direction: I need minimal supervision
-Persistency: I will see to it that the job is completed
-Good with people: I enjoy interacting with people and am patient in trying situations
-Attention to detail: My output is of high quality

My experience consists of 10+ years in various roles in the private sector, including supporting CEOs in strategy. Recently, I have had a couple of "EA jobs" where I am still employed. Much more detail can be provided.

Location/remote: Remote and my current location in the EU.

Availability & type of work: The following are the types of work I would like to do:
-Data analysis, forecasting, etc.

-Holding training courses, workshops, etc.

I am keen for the 2 types of work above to be >60% of my work. The reason for looking for a new job is to do more of the work that I truly enjoy - I love data analysis in support of strategy!
 

AI evals might be an especially good fit for me as suggested to me by seasoned EA advisors.

Available part-time right away and full-time once a successor for my current EA job has been found.

Resume/CV/LinkedIn: Will be provided privately - just ask!

Email/contact: Please DM me here and I will provide more details.

Other notes: I am cause neutral, especially as this type of work is so enjoyable to me that I do not need other motivation.

TLDR: Full Stack Javascript Software engineer looking for full-time or part-time opportunities in AI Safety or AI Safety-adjacent projects

Location/remote: I'm based in Venezuela, I can work remotely in either PST/MST/EST time zones.

Availability & type of work: I can start working with 2-4 weeks' notice, and am interested in positions with a 20- 40-hour weekly load.

Resume/CV/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dewstend/

Email/contact: You can DM me on the Forum, or connect with me on LinkedIn.

Other notes: I don't have strict cause area preferences at the moment, although I would like opportunities to learn more about Machine Learning. Besides being interested in different AI Safety agendas, I am also drawn to Global Health and Development, Climate Change, and Global Priorities Research.

A role I could be a great fit for right now: you have features, bugs, projects, and/or ideas that need the help of a frontend or a backend software engineer to help you build and add value to your org. React, Vue, Node.js, Nest.js, Next.js, Python, Django REST Framework, throw it at me and I'll make it work.

A role I'd see as ideal but understand if it's not available: Contains a track for upskilling me as a Machine Learning Engineer and helping you with the software engineering aspects of your data and model flows and pipelines.

TLDR: ex-AWS/Azure Software Engineer (also open to product roles)

Availability & type of work: flexible

TLDR: Experienced math tutor seeks mentees for HS-level projects

Skills & background:  I have been tutoring math for over 20 years and have a math degree. 

Location: Remote.

Availability & type of work: Part-time, any-time, CET hours or asynchronously.

Resume/CV/LinkedIn: translated local profile with references,  LinkedIn.

Email/contact: DM or via LinkedIn.

Other notes: The mentorship can be 1-1 or in a group on Skool, synchronous or asynchronous, long-term or short-term. The students can come up with a topic, or I can guide them to figure out a topic. The projects can be in pure math or potentially interdisciplinary. Mentees do not have to attend high school. If we get stuck, I can get guidance from my relative, a STEM researcher. Think of it as an Extended Essay for non-IB students. Pay would be partially flexible (Pay What You Want basis) with a suggested price. 

Questions: I believe this is relevant for EA as math is the cornerstone of sciences, projects can connect more fields, and self-directedness allows students to explore their interests. 

TLDR: freelance writer and editor interested in (mostly) part-time and contract work. I’m particularly interested in finding more clients for writing coaching (see below). 

Skills & background: I’m a freelance writer and editor: here’s my website and here’s my personal blog. You can also read many of my posts (both personal and collaborative) here on the Forum.

I’ve worked with several EAs and EA-adjacent people, writing or editing blogs, website content, internal organizational documents, podcast transcripts, fiction and more. I’ve also designed an educational module on IFS therapy concepts and worked as a facilitator for the EA Forum. 

Previously, I’ve worked as an ESL and secondary school teacher, and I spent some time pursuing an academic career in Classics (specialising in Greek and Roman philosophy), which also involved working as an instructor and teaching assistant. I think I’m good at teaching and related skills, such as explaining things simply, empathetically listening and responding to people’s problems, thinking of creative solutions, and making plans. I’m actively interested in finding more teaching-adjacent work.

Location/remote: London – most of my work is remote but I’m willing to meet face-to-face in London. I’m not interested in relocating. My working hours are roughly 9.30ish-5.30ish UK time, but I'm happy to work a little later than that sometimes to accommodate people in Pacific Time!

Availability & type of work: I’m mainly interested in contract or part-time work, but would also consider full-time roles if they are an especially good fit. 

I’m interested in offering: 

Writing coaching: I’ve only had a few one-off clients so far for this but I think it went well. Generally, I think I might be a great fit for this because it’s at the intersection of my two skillsets, writing and teaching.

Editing, proofreading, and review: I’m happy to proofread things, offer light or intensive editing, and give feedback on your drafts. In general, I’ll engage with the content of what I’m editing and tell you if something doesn’t make sense or doesn’t land right.

Content writing help: you describe your ideas, and I’ll write them up into a finished draft. 

Debugging, problem-solving, sympathetic listening, and accountability.

I’m starting a series on ideas that have changed people’s lives: the first post is on the Alexander technique. If you’re interested in funding one of these posts, let me know (this will help me to prioritize the project more). 

Here’s a list of questions that I’d be interested to research.

I’m open to work that doesn’t come under any of these headings but that I might be a good fit for: feel free to reach out and ask.

TLDR: Mid-career researcher in AI & Law looking to work on AI Safety/X-Risk and Governance projects.

Skills & background: I am a lawyer and researcher with 12 years of industry experience. After several years of practicing as a Human Rights lawyer in Australia, I transitioned to academic research.

I currently work as a research associate with the Sydney University Law School. My work  has primarily focussed on analysing the rising tide of populism within global democracies, examining the impact of Open Banking’s legal frameworks on consumer rights, and critically appraising the moral and ethical underpinnings of constitutional law. These projects have resulted in the delivery of several research papers, lectures and the publication of two academic texts: A Pandemic of Populists (Cambridge University Press, 2022) and Constitutional Public Reason (Oxford University Press, 2023), with a paper on Open Banking forthcoming.

I am also working on an independent research paper examining how universal legal frameworks can support our shared future with AI. The abstract for this paper was recently accepted for presentation at the UCT AI Conference, which will be hosted in South Africa in July 2024.

Location/remote: I am based in Tanzania and would prefer to work remotely.

Availability & type of work: Interested in part-time or contract work, though I might be open to full-time work if it’s an exceptionally good fit. I can start in 1 month

TLDR:  I am an educator and coach interested in FT employment that complements my freelance coaching practice.

Skills & background: I am a people person, a strong communicator, and reliable collaborator. My education and professional background is working with languages, teaching English in half a dozen countries and learning a little of each along the way. I love being even a small part of people's growth journey, though I don't love the spotlight. That's what got me into coaching, starting at a US non-profit coaching company. My coming-to-EA story is found here. Lately I've been serving as EA Virtual Programs facilitator, with largely positive feedback so far. In addition to English as my mother tongue, I speak Spanish fluently, and Turkish at a novice level.

Location/remote: Sooke, BC, Canada, Pacific Time Zone. Interested in remote work, but may consider moving for an exceptional opportunity. Open to travel as needed.

Email/contact: The best way to find is to DM me via LinkedIn. If you want to cut to the chase, you can book me via this Calendly link.

Other notes: I am mostly cause-neutral but am most fired up by old-skool EA, i.e., GHD, and have pretty solid, recent community building cred. I thrive in ops-type work, especially when my creative side is activated. I like to think that I'm high-integrity, so if you aren't sure if I'd be a good candidate, consider reaching out anyway. I would probably agree, and do my best to help you find someone else!

Questions: I'm helping organize EAGxToronto this year. Want to come?

TLDR: To reduce global wealth inequalities through education, I'm pursuing a mid-senior-level communications position at a non-profit working towards this goal, where I can capitalize on my director-level communications and marketing experience in for-profit organizations.

Other notes (context to my TLDR): In my 6th semester of Economics, I studied with graduate students in leadership positions at regional banks, multinationals, and non-profits. None had the time or income to help as many people as they wanted, maintain a work-life balance, and pursue meaningful side projects. 

The idea of that being the best future even the 1% in Colombia could aspire for haunted me. 

Would I forever eat protein-less breakfasts, not afford healthcare, or work on Saturdays? My grandpa went to the Korean War in 1951 to escape the poverty he and his eight siblings were born into. My dad had to sell books, empanadas, and newspapers to pay for public university. Wasn't the financial burden of a private university supposed to be offset by the promise of a better future?

What about others? What about those who didn't have a mother who nurtured their love of reading or a father who instilled the value of self-education? Or those who grew up with abusive or absent parents who didn't trust and invest in their potential, even when they failed or when they had "better" siblings? Or those whom the gene pool and social environment didn't bless with the same non-cognitive and cognitive skills I have?

I'm devoted to helping individuals in the Global South realize their full potential, even if they weren't born into wealthy, stable, and supportive families.

I've experienced the benefits of above-average literacy and education. My skills have brought millions of eyes to overlooked problems and generated millions in profit for purpose-driven brands. At 23, against all odds, I became part of the richest 1% in the world. This allowed me to enroll in a graduate program in Liberal Arts in the United States, afford healthcare, and ensure that my mother had everything she needed to pass away in the least painful way possible.

While my focus lies on reducing global inequalities through educational interventions, I'm also interested in adjacent problems, such as Global Health, Hunger, and AI alignment (can't reduce inequalities if we all cease to exist).

Questions: I can't ask questions before knowing who I'll ask them to.

TLDR: I'd like to be a congressional staffer for either a Republican or non-partisan staff. I'm open to working on personal staff, committee staff, or leadership staff. 

Skills & background: I've been a gate guard at pools, manager of fireworks stands, and a middle/high school teacher. I have experience with JavaScript, Java, LaTeX, HTML, & CSS (especially JavaScript), and I’ve volunteered for a number of political campaigns. I'm very patient and polite, even with difficult people, and I have a very strong work ethic.

Location/remote: I'm currently located in Bristow, Virginia, which is already pretty close to Washington DC, but I'd be willing to relocate closer to Washington if necessary. I'm open to remote work, but I'd prefer an in-person position.

Availability & type of work: I can start immediately, and I'm interested in either part-time or full-time roles (even unpaid ones, so long as they’re with a congressional staff).
