I'm looking for a job. If you have suggestions for places to apply, please post a comment (one comment per organization, multiple roles in one comment is fine) and include any information you think is helpful. More general advice on finding/getting my next job is also appreciated. I reserve the right to not pay out bounties if it looks like you're just spamming random big companies or whatever.

Bounties:

• M$75 for every suggested org I hadn't considered yet and ~seems worth considering

• M$400 if I end up "seriously considering" your suggestion. This is kind of vague, but for example if I set up a meeting with anyone at the company that would probably count, and if I apply it definitely counts.

• M$1500 if I apply and get an offer (regardless of whether I accept).

• 0.25% of my yearly compensation if I get hired. If it's a temporary contract or some other case where I feel this doesn't make sense, I will try to figure out something reasonable. I'll pay this out once, not for every year I work there.

I might also award discretionary bounties for helpful advice.

About me:

• I currently live (and have citizenship) in the Netherlands, but I'm very much open to moving.

  • "very much open": I think more likely than not I will work in a different country 3 years from now.

    • SWE salaries in the Netherlands are relatively low.

    • Most companies are not in the Netherlands.

  • If I do move, I would prefer to live in a country where people mostly speak English.

• I was an SRE at Google Ireland (joined September last year). Unfortunately I was also one of the people they laid off this year. This was my first "real job".

  • I passed the SWE interviews and ended up taking a SWE-SRE role.

• I have a BSc. in Mathematics from Leiden University.

• I'd prefer not to work fully remote.

• I'm interested in Effective Altruism.

  • I'm a GWWC member donating 10+%. If an organization has a generous donation matching program I will probably include it in total comp (to the extent I actually use it).

  • My donations have gone mostly to global poverty and animal welfare stuff, but I'm interested in more longtermist stuff as well.

  • I'd strongly prefer to work somewhere I feel I am having a significant positive impact directly, not just through donating a part of my income.

    • I think I'd enjoy working on stuff related to AI safety, but I doubt any of the big orgs would hire me.

• I'm kind of an anxious persen and dread interviewing for a job and not getting an offer. Noting this both as a warning (I might not end up applying to a lot of palces) and as a scream for help.

  • If you make a suggestion and also offer to bet that I would get an offer if I applied, I might be more likely to actually apply? Not sure.

I'll add more stuff as I think of it or people ask about it. Feel free to DM me on Discord as well (@jskf_ :{).
