AI Safety Ecosystem Legal Hiring Round 
General Counsel hiring for Constellation is a part of an ecosystem hiring round. Please read below for details and a link to apply.
Deadline to apply is November 1, 2026.
Job description
About this Round 
Several organizations working on AI Safety are running a joint legal hiring round. Each organization has its own legal needs and many are hiring in-house counsel for the first time. 
This round is open to individual attorneys seeking full-time or fractional in-house roles.
You do not need prior AI safety experience, though some background knowledge is helpful. You do need legal judgment, comfort with ambiguity and genuine interest in understanding organizations whose risk tolerance and operating speed may differ from a typical non-profit or corporate client. Generally applicants with at least 5 years of legal practice experience are more likely to be successful. You should be authorized to practice law where you intend to work from. Most roles require a US barred attorney. 
What These Roles Have in Common: 

• Speed matters. A recurring pain point for orgs has been slow turnaround. This ecosystem moves quickly, and needs counsel who can keep pace.
• Risk-calibrated, not risk averse. How much risk each org is comfortable with varies, but all of them want counsel who will lay out the risk, the likelihood and a clear recommendation based on the specifics of a given situation, not a counsel who defaults to best practices.
• Novel legal landscape. Fiscal sponsorship structures, frontier AI lab contract negotiation, export controls and FARA exposure, compute contract remedies, and the boundaries of 501(c)(3)/501(c)(4) activity all come up regularly, often without established precedent. 

How This Works: These are distinct opportunities bundled into a single application process so candidates can be considered efficiently across the ecosystem.
