Responsibilities

• Develop and execute communications strategies across our research portfolio, including interpretability, alignment, model welfare, and model training, turning dense technical work into stories that resonate with distinct audiences.
• Lead launch moments for major research publications, papers, and milestones, owning the narrative, media strategy, and cross-functional rollout.
• Create thought leadership opportunities for research executives to build their profiles as leading voices in AI safety through speaking engagements, bylines, conferences, and media.
• Build and maintain relationships with key science and technology journalists, research-focused outlets, and influencers in the AI and ML space.
• Serve as a trusted comms partner to research leads and senior stakeholders

Requirements

• Have 8+ years of experience working in communications, ideally with significant time spent on science, research, or deep-tech storytelling.
• Have a strong record of building proactive communications campaigns around technical or scientific work that resonated with a diverse range of audiences.
• Excel at translating complex technical concepts into compelling messaging.
• Are excellent at media relations, including with reporters who cover tech, science and research rather than just business or product news.
• Have experience working directly with researchers, scientists, or engineers on a variety of topics
• Are comfortable operating in areas of genuine uncertainty — where the science is evolving, the stakes are high, and there may not be a right answer yet.
• Want to be part of a fast-paced, small, experienced, and impactful team.
• Are results-oriented, with a bias toward flexibility and impact.

Preferred

• Experience in science communications, academic research communications, or deep-tech comms
• Experience building executive brand and thought leadership programs — positioning technical leaders as credible, visible voices in their field through speaking, media, and owned content strategies.
• Background working directly with research teams, academic labs, or R&D functions at a technology company
• A track record of launching research papers, scientific findings, or technical reports to press and public
• Experience communicating about emerging or philosophically novel topics where public understanding is limited and the risk of misinterpretation is high
• Familiarity with the AI safety and alignment landscape
