Job Summary
About Constellation
Constellation is an independent research center that brings together people throughout the AI safety ecosystem to accelerate insight research and talent through better cooperation. Unlike a conference or summit Constellation operates continuously in the form of a physical workspace as well as conference-style talks workshops and training bootcamps. Continuous operation allows for relationships and conversations to develop over time meaningfully fostering trust collaboration and shared insight. It also makes Constellation a natural field-building hub by rapidly inspiring orienting and connecting people who are newer to the field.
Based in Berkeley CA our shared workspace hosts over 200 people per week across dozens of AI safety organizations in nonprofits academia industry and government. Hundreds of other researchers spend time at Constellation for shorter visits each year. We believe this is the strongest and highest-output network of AI safety researchers in the world; dozens of participants in past Constellation programs have gone on to safety-focused roles at companies such as METR Redwood Research Anthropic Google DeepMind OpenAI and the US and UK Safety Institutes.
