Content Lead
White Circle · New York City
TL;DR: We’re looking for a Content Lead to turn complex AI safety topics into clear, compelling stories that build trust, shape White Circle’s voice, and drive product adoption. You’ll own content end-to-end: find the story, define the angle, write it, publish it, and make sure it reaches the right technical audience.
About White Circle
White Circle is an AI Safety company building the safety, reliability, and optimization layer for AI systems. At the core of our platform are policies – simple natural-language rules that define what an AI model should and shouldn’t do. We automatically test, enforce, and continuously improve these policies at scale.
We’ve recently raised our Series A funding round, taking our total funding to $70M. Our investors include top funds, founders, and senior leaders at OpenAI, Anthropic, HuggingFace, Mistral, DeepMind, Datadog, Sentry, and others
We process over one hundred million API calls every month
We fine-tune and train our own LLMs so they run faster and cheaper than any open or proprietary model
We’re a small, highly focused team. If you want to work deeply on hard problems, see your work ship to production quickly, and influence how AI safety is actually built – you’re the one we need.
