About Constellation

The AI safety field lacks the capacity, capability, and cooperation needed to safely navigate transformative AI. Constellation addresses these gaps, by mobilizing new and existing talent (to improve field capacity), incubating and growing projects, teams and organizations (to improve field capability), and convening field contributors (to improve field cooperation). While our overall mission requires work across all the necessary areas needed to address risks from transformative AI, Constellation is especially well positioned to support research, because of our established track record of hosting and collaborating with research organizations. We support research at multiple levels: we host and incubate research organizations, we support cohorts of independent researchers as Visiting Fellows (and previously our Astra research fellowship), and by partnering with external research programs like MATS and Anthropic Fellows.

But there’s so much more to do.

There is more talent that can contribute to safety than has been mobilized into the field, and the field as a whole needs to grow to meet the demand for top talent working across all areas.

About this role

Here at Constellation our team is growing in order to support the field’s growth. That’s where you come in. We are looking for a high impact recruiter to build the team that builds Constellation and in turn grows the overall AI safety field.

As Recruiter at Constellation, you'll own end-to-end hiring processes while also building the systems and practices that help us scale our impact. You'll be the primary driver of candidate experience, the architect of recruiting workflows, and a trusted partner to hiring managers.

This role requires someone who thrives in environments where you are scrappy, action-oriented, and energized by the challenge of implementing just the right level of structure in a fast-moving organization. You'll work autonomously, make real-time tradeoffs with imperfect information, and adapt quickly to the unique dynamics of the AI safety ecosystem. If you're intellectually curious, excited by problem solving, and want your work to directly support the growth of mission-critical teams, this is the role.

Own end-to-end recruitment processes from sourcing through offer acceptance, ensuring smooth candidate experience at every stage.

Serve as the primary point of contact for candidates, managing scheduling, communications, and onsite coordination through Slack channels and other systems.

Partner with hiring managers to develop interview frameworks and evaluation criteria that maintain a high talent bar while being inclusive and efficient.

Act as the face of Constellation for candidates, providing clear communication, timely updates, and warm, professional interactions throughout the hiring process.

Manage onsite candidate visits, including greeting, coordination, and ensuring a seamless experience.

Educate candidates about the AI safety ecosystem, helping them understand the landscape and opportunities within this unique and nascent field.

Manage and improve applicant tracking systems and recruiting data to inform decision-making.

Develop strong judgment about when standard recruiting best practices apply and when to create something bespoke for our context.

Push back constructively when needed, informing decisions with data and first-principles thinking rather than relying solely on conventional wisdom.

As capacity allows, provide advisory recruiting support to partner organizations in the AI safety ecosystem (e.g., helping organizations with evaluation criteria or process design).

Have experience managing end-to-end recruitment processes with demonstrated ability to work autonomously and deliver results in fast-paced environments.

Bring a startup mentality; comfortable with scrappiness, ambiguity, and building systems from scratch rather than inheriting established processes. Experience scaling recruiting operations is a plus.

Are a natural problem solver who sees challenges as opportunities and adapts quickly to what the organization needs rather than fitting work into predetermined boxes.

Have strong coordination and organizational skills with meticulous attention to detail in managing candidate flow, scheduling, and communications.

Can make real-time tradeoffs with limited information, knowing when to follow standard practices and when to create something new.

Bring intellectual curiosity and eagerness to learn about a unique, nascent field

Have the confidence and experience to push back constructively, informing decisions with data and sound judgment rather than defaulting to convention.

Are mission aligned and values driven, with passion for helping humanity safely navigate the development of transformative AI.
