## About the role

Decision-makers evaluating SAI need a concrete, internally consistent account of what hypothetical early deployment would involve. Existing research addresses many individual components, but important questions remain about how they fit together. Reflective is developing a reference scenario that examines one or two specified cases, from precursor supply chains and aircraft to observing systems, data assimilation, and feedback control. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- You decompose ambiguous problem spaces into explicit milestones and dependencies, and you have the discipline to cut scope to protect a ship date
- You work well through influence rather than authority — extracting quality work from contributors you don't manage, in academia, industry, and government
- You communicate precisely with non-specialist audiences and can represent technical work to policymakers and critics without overstating it
- You are comfortable with public scrutiny of your work, including from critics of this field, and see rigorous external critique as the point rather than a threat
