General Expression of Interest

Job overview

This is a general expression of interest based in Berkeley, CA; the posting does not specify a fixed work arrangement, and compensation is described as competitive with Bay Area technology roles. METR is based in downtown Berkeley and invites interest from people who may contribute to its work. The submission allows METR to retain candidate information and consider it as future hiring needs arise. Applicants describe how they could contribute; the organization may review submissions later and contact candidates if a potential fit develops.

What you'll do

• Submit a recent CV and describe potential contributions to METR
• candidates who advance may be asked to complete one to three work tests and one or two interviews, followed by a possible one-to-five-day onsite. Technical roles favor in-person work but may allow some work from home
• operations roles are expected to be in person and require relocation. Work tests longer than one hour are typically compensated at a competitive hourly rate.
