Technical Advisor

The Microsoft Superintelligence team is building Humanist Superintelligence - advanced AI designed to remain controllable, aligned, and firmly in service to humanity. As a lean, fast-moving research lab within Microsoft AI, we are focused on creating the safest, most capable AI systems that amplify human potential and deliver tangible impact to billions of users worldwide. We're looking for a Technical Advisor to join Microsoft Superintelligence in the Office of the CEO of Microsoft AI. The right candidate combines deep technical expertise in machine learning and software engineering with the ability to provide strategic counsel on high-stakes decisions. This role requires someone who can dive deep into research problems—evaluating models, prototyping solutions, and analyzing technical tradeoffs—while also synthesizing insights for executive decision-making. You'll work across the full spectrum of our research efforts, from model development and infrastructure to safety and alignment. The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, takes initiative, and can context-switch fluidly between hands-on technical work and strategic advisory. You should be comfortable working across a variety of projects as they surface ad-hoc and able to clearly communicate findings in exec-level written documents.
