Senior Policy Manager

Senior Policy Manager OpenMined is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation that brings together leading minds in AI, security, and privacy technology to develop open-source solutions that transform how data can be accessed and shared. Founded in 2017, we've grown into a global community of over 18,000 members working to ensure that privacy protection and AI innovation reinforce one another rather than undermine one another. We are driven by a simple challenge: the most valuable data for solving humanity's greatest challenges remains locked away due to privacy concerns, and we can change that through technology rather than compromise. We're seeking a Senior Policy Manager, based in Washington, DC, to lead our US policy work. This role will be instrumental in advancing OpenMined's nonprofit mission to build the infrastructure that lets AI be overseen and built in public. One half of our work gives regulators, researchers, and independent evaluators a way to examine AI systems with privacy and IP protected. The other half gives people a way to combine models and data into AI that no single company controls. You'll translate both halves of our technical work for US policymakers and make legible why it matters. Reporting to our Director of Research & Policy, and working closely with our Executive Director, this role is for a policy entrepreneur who can help us build OpenMined into a trusted tech-policy voice in Washington. While OpenMined is a remote organization and you'll work from home, this role is based in Washington, DC. The job depends on being in the city to regularly attend in-person meetings with policymakers, agency staff, and partners.
