I have around 2-3 years of machine learning engineering industry experience. While I may not be the type of talent to get into OpenAI, I believe I could make some AI safety relevant contributions.

I have a strong preference for (fully) remote work or occasionally (once in 3-6 months) live meetups. So, my question is: Are there any AI safety relevant fully remote roles suitable for someone with 2-3 years of machine learning engineering industry experience? I haven't worked in a research role before, but I'm open to that as well.

I visited the 80 000 hours job board, but almost all of those roles are on-site and the ones that aren't generally require 5+ years of experience, which I don't currently have.

You should still apply for jobs even if they say 5+ years experience. The requirements are often more flexible than they seem, and the worst that can happen is they say no.

That's fine, but again, most of the 80 000 hours jobs are not remote and those that are remote are mostly open application. I was wondering if you knew some fully remote jobs related to AI safety research.
