General Expression of Interest - Neo Research

Interested in working with Neo Research, but don't see the right role currently open?

We're always interested in hearing from people who are excited about our work and could be a strong fit for future opportunities.

Neo Research (新衡) is an independent AI safety research organization based in Singapore. We study frontier risks in increasingly capable AI systems, with a particular focus on the open-weight model ecosystem and the fast-growing frontier-model ecosystem in Asia. Our current work focuses on misalignment, loss of control and harmful manipulation.

Submit an expression of interest below to tell us a little about your background, your research interests, and the kinds of questions you'd want to work on with us. We'll keep your information on file and may reach out if a relevant opportunity comes up.

This form doesn't apply to a specific open position, and we may not be able to respond to every submission individually. For currently open positions, including our Lead Research Scientist role, please apply directly through the relevant job posting.

We're particularly interested in research scientists and research engineers with backgrounds in model evaluations, alignment, interpretability, ML and LLM engineering, agentic systems, and adjacent fields whose methods transfer to frontier AI safety. You don't need to have worked in AI safety before. Reading and writing Mandarin is a plus.
