About Successif
Successif is a career advising program helping professionals transition into high-impact roles in AI safety and governance. We provide personalized coaching, specialized training, and consulting services.
The Role
We're looking for a part-time contractor to score incoming applications to our advising program. You'll use a structured rubric to evaluate each applicant's background, motivation, and fit — and flag edge cases for team discussion.
This is a focused, async-friendly role ideal for someone who wants to contribute meaningfully to AI safety talent pipelines without a heavy time commitment.
What you'll do
-
Score applications against our rubric (~2–3 hours per week)
-
Flag edge cases and dealbreakers with brief written notes
-
Communicate asynchronously with team members to align on borderline cases
What success looks like
-
Ensuring a quick turnaround time for all incoming applications.
-
Maintaining high scoring consistency (inter-rater reliability).
​
What we're looking for
-
Familiarity with the AI safety / AI governance space
-
Sound judgment — can read between the lines and assess potential, not just credentials
-
Clear, direct written communication
-
Reliability and attention to detail
Nice to have
-
Prior experience in hiring, admissions, or program selection
-
Familiarity with high-impact career frameworks or global catastrophic risk reduction discourse
Compensation & logistics
-
30 USD per hour, paid monthly. Fully remote and async. We'll invite shortlisted candidates to complete a work test before confirming the engagement. This is a contractor role, and the successful candidate will invoice Successif to be paid.
-
Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis, but we look to fill the role within the coming week if possible.
