This is a full time position based in Washington, DC.
The Center for AI Policy is a 501c4 nonpartisan research organization dedicated to mitigating the catastrophic risks of AI through policy development and advocacy. CAIP started in July 2023 and works to ensure AI is developed and implemented with the highest safety standards.
As a hybrid organization, we believe in-person connection and relationship building is essential to advancing the organization’s mission to promote safe AI. Our offices are located in Downtown DC and we work in person two days per week.

The salary for this position is $91k – $104k per year, depending on experience. Additionally, we offer an end-of-year performance bonus of up to 10% of base salary awarded based on the ability to achieve agreed-upon goals.
CAIP provides the following benefits to full time employees:
This is a hybrid position. We ask team members to come in person to our downtown DC office for six hours each on Mondays and Thursdays, and we try to schedule most of our internal team meetings on those days. Our office is available to the team 24/7, but if you don’t have a scheduled meeting, then you are otherwise welcome to work from wherever you like.
Some travel is required for this role so that you can meet at least occasionally with local volunteers in key Congressional districts; you would have a voice in which locations you visit and how often. The company will fully reimburse all travel expenses outside the DC metro area.
Please submit your application here. A cover letter is not required, but is strongly encouraged, especially if your resume does not make it obvious why you are interested in the position.
Immediate Availability Preferred. We are looking for candidates who can start work as soon as possible, so it is unlikely that we would be able to sponsor a visa.
