To be considered, applicants must demonstrate prior experience with machine learning research or have a previous track record of writing in detail about technical developments in machine learning research.


Technical writing opportunities:
  • Editing and drafting sections of research papers, turning research results into a polished final output
  • Writing and curating the ML Safety Newsletter, which covers developments in machine learning/ technical AI safety for a research audience


You'll thrive in this role if you:
  • Are deeply interested in the latest research in machine learning and its implications for AI safety
  • Enjoy writing about machine learning research and excel at distilling the main insights from machine learning research papers in a precise yet accessible style
  • Uphold rigorous standards of accuracy, even in a fast-paced environment
  • Appreciate a structured editorial process and welcome constructive feedback


$30 - $50 an hour
This is a contract-based role with an hourly rate of $30-$50, depending on expertise, project complexity, and level of commitment. Compensation may vary based on factors such as subject matter expertise, writing experience, and the scope of individual projects.

We are actively building a pool of contributing writers and encourage applicants with expertise in machine learning and previous writing experience to apply. Writers may be engaged on a per-project basis, depending on expertise and content needs.
