Why this is on the board
R-ABC is a new non-profit that wants to use rules and agreements to stop anyone using AI to make a biological weapon or unleash a pandemic. As its first chief of staff, you set up how the organisation hires people, spends money and makes decisions. Those choices determine how well everyone who comes after you can do this work, and they give the director room to focus on the substance.
About the role
The role builds and scales operations for a new nonprofit reducing AI-enabled biological misuse risks through governance.

What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
