Where yesterday’s academics meet tomorrow’s companies.
For academics
A clear route to the best labs
We help academics in mathematics, physics and adjacent subjects land a role at the most ambitious tech labs who are specifically looking for this kind of talent.
For organisations
Top researchers in the early stages of their career
Reach out to researchers who are actively looking for a pivot into AI development or AI safety, with no recruiters, cover letters, or hiring bureaucracy.
The principle
Less noise,
more signal.
Research hiring is currently chaotic, sporadic, and unreliable.
Vetting
Our company directory is invite-only. That means we review each new sign up, and prioritize ambitious, fast growing teams over slower growth or established companies.
Immediate reach
There's no recruiter to impress, and no randomness of the application pile. Candidates can message teams, and teams can reach out to candidates.
Intellectual flair
Because of our specific focus, both our teams and candidates are intellectually curious, and like to take on problems in principled ways.
How it works
No white collar fluff.
We don't do formal resumes, cover letters, or recruiters. Instead, companies and candidates can share more about themselves and talk to each other directly.
For academics

Your particular field, your methods, and your achievements so far.

For startups
