About P-Zero Research

P-Zero Research is a public benefit corporation working to improve the long term trajectory of artificial intelligence. We aim to forecast and mitigate the risks downstream of automated AI R&D.

Our recent work has involved improving takeoff forecasts by measuring the research taste of frontier models. As frontier labs move closer to automating their own research, we expect independent measurements and forecasts to become one of the main tools for pacing the frontier safely.

Expression of interest

We don't have an open role for every excellent person we'd like to meet. If you could make a big difference to our mission outside of technical research, tell us how.

No specific role is currently open. Any role we open will be posted separately, with its pay range.

People will thrive here with:

• A track record of exceptional work in their field

• High agency and comfort with ambiguity

• Clear, concise written communication

• Alignment with P-Zero's mission to improve the long term trajectory of AI

Bonus points for:

• Experience in government, at a frontier lab or at an AI safety organisation

• Being based in, or able to relocate to, London or the San Francisco Bay Area

How we review applications

We read every application and keep them on file. We'll get in touch when we see a strong fit with what we need, which may not be straight away.

Location

We prefer people to work in person in London or the San Francisco Bay Area. We're open to remote for exceptional candidates, with regular overlap during our core hours (8-10am Pacific / 4-6pm UK).

Visas and relocation

We offer a relocation allowance for moves to London or the San Francisco Bay Area.

San Francisco Bay Area: we sponsor US work visas (typically O-1A, E-3 or TN) and cover legal and filing fees, including for dependants. Sponsorship isn't guaranteed for every candidate, but if we make you an offer we'll work with you and our immigration counsel to find the right route.

London: we can't sponsor UK visas at the moment, so you'll need an existing right to work in the UK or a visa you hold in your own right, such as a Global Talent visa.
