Basis is a nonprofit applied research organization with two mutually reinforcing goals.

Basis sponsors postdoctoral fellowships for early-career scientists who share our mission to understand and build intelligence. Fellows have autonomy to direct their own research, and work with Basis scientists and our academic collaborators.

Please see more information and application here.

We are looking for people who are excited to contribute to Basis’ technical mission, want to work creatively on projects that matter with impact that goes beyond publications, and enjoy collaborating with a broad community of people while shipping high quality open source software.

Our organizational structure makes for a distinct form of career development where employees are able to see their autonomy and responsibilities grow with their projects.
