About the Cambridge Boston Alignment Initiative

The Cambridge Boston Alignment Initiative (CBAI) is a groundbreaking nonprofit research organization dedicated to advancing research and education aimed at ensuring a safe and beneficial transition to advanced AI systems. Our initiatives focus on producing original research and accelerating AI safety research through innovative fellowship programs.

Since launching our inaugural summer fellowship cohort, we have successfully published a spotlight paper at the Mechanistic Interpretability Workshop at NeurIPS and achieved acceptance of papers at ICLR. Several of our fellows have joined esteemed organizations such as Goodfire and Redwood Research. Following a successful launch in 2025, we’re poised for rapid growth in 2026, with plans to host multiple fellowship cycles, double our fellowship cohort, and quadruple our team size.

CBAI has been a pivotal organization for AI safety in Cambridge since late 2022, acting as a hub that connects the AI safety research community across Harvard, MIT, and Northeastern. We organize workshops, convenings, and networking events that unite researchers, students, and practitioners to address the most critical challenges in the field.

If you know potential candidates, refer them to us and receive a $5,000 reward upon their hiring.

The Role

In this role, you will oversee CBAI's external events and workshop portfolio, transforming Cambridge into a vibrant gathering point for AI safety researchers while fostering the development of the next generation of talent in the field. Your responsibilities encompass three interconnected areas: enhancing and scaling the Harvard-MIT AI Safety Workshops hosted in Essex, MA; organizing monthly city-level networking events; and sourcing, designing, and executing high-profile specialized research workshops in collaboration with Harvard, MIT, and Northeastern research groups. This position requires a blend of community strategy and operational execution; you will be equally adept at designing workshop curricula in partnership with student group leaders as you are at negotiating venue contracts or coordinating speaker travel logistics.
