NOTE: If you previously applied to one of our Research Engineer/Scientist, Machine Learning Research Engineer/Scientist, or Research Stream Lead roles, you do not need to apply again. We are merging all inbound applications for researcher roles into this one.
 
About METR
We are a nonprofit research organization that develops scientific methods to assess AI capabilities, risks and mitigations, with a specific focus on threats related to autonomy, AI R&D automation, and alignment.
 
We believe it is robustly good for civilization to have a clearer understanding of what dangers AI systems pose, and we are extremely excited to find ambitious, excellent people to join our team and tackle one of the most important challenges of our time.
 
What We're Looking For
METR hosts many research streams. Right now, we're primarily hiring for the Evaluation Execution Stream, which focuses on productionizing, improving, and executing our various evaluations. We streamline our processes and build common infrastructure to scale our ability to continually run our most up-to-date evaluations on the latest models. This stream is focused much more on research execution and software engineering skills (see descriptions below), as opposed to research science.
