Full Job Description

About the Fellowship

Postdoctoral Fellowships at Basis offer an immersive research environment for highly qualified researchers to deepen their expertise in computational theories of intelligence, including but not limited to reasoning, learning, and decision-making. Fellows will work closely with Basis Research Scientists and partnering Principal Investigators (PIs) from academic institutions.

About Basis

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

The first is to understand and build intelligence. This means to establish the mathematical principles of what it means to reason, to learn, to make decisions, to understand, and to explain; and to construct software that implements these principles.

The second is to advance society’s ability to solve intractable problems. This means expanding the scale, complexity, and breadth of problems that we can solve today, and even more importantly, accelerating our ability to solve problems in the future.

To achieve these goals, we’re building both a new technological foundation that draws inspiration from how humans reason, and a new kind of collaborative organization that puts human values first.

How it works

Basis Postdoctoral Fellows are jointly mentored and funded by Basis and partner PIs at academic institutions. Fellows split their time between Basis and the academic PI’s lab, functioning like a jointly advised postdoctoral position.
- Established partner PIs include: Nada Amin (Harvard), Kevin Ellis (Cornell), Armando Solar-Lezama (MIT), Youssef Marzouk (MIT), and Tom Silver (Princeton).
Each Fellow is paired with a Basis mentor selected to align with the Fellow’s research program and goals.
- Possible Basis mentors include: Emily Mackevicius, Zenna Tavares, Eli Bingham, Matt Levine, and others.
This structure offers a distinctive research environment that blends the strengths of academia and industry. Fellows have the autonomy to shape their own research agendas while benefiting from mentorship, collaboration, and resources from both settings.
There are two pathways into the Fellowship: joining an existing project or proposing a new research direction through our open call.
- Existing projects: Fellows are jointly employed with an established partner PI. Some roles have a single designated PI; others offer a choice from a curated shortlist. Open positions are listed on our job board.
- Open call: Applicants may propose a new research direction through the Open Call on our job board, and are encouraged to suggest potential PI mentors, (including academics not listed as established partner PIs). If selected, Fellows will work with Basis to establish a new academic collaboration.

Who we’re looking for

Researchers holding a PhD in computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational neuroscience, cognitive science, or related fields.
Individuals with a demonstrated track record in scientific research, evidenced through publications, technical reports, or impactful software projects.

Core Responsibilities

Conduct independent and collaborative research within the thematic areas of Basis, focusing on computational theories of intelligence.
Disseminate research findings through academic publications and presentations at leading conferences.
Actively engage in knowledge transfer within Basis and with external partners, converting research into actionable insights and algorithms.
Provide mentorship to junior team members and contribute to the scientific discourse at Basis through seminars, workshops, and collaborative projects.

Role Details

Full-time: This fellowship is full-time and has a fixed duration of 1 to 2 years.
Location: Limited to the New York City and Boston areas; this is an in-person position.
Salary: Competitive with leading postdoctoral fellowships.
Start date: Applications reviewed on a rolling Basis. Immediate start possible.

Application Components

Please submit the following:

A cover letter (no more than 2 pages) that includes:
- A brief description of your PhD research and past accomplishments
- A list of at least three potential PI mentors outside of Basis. If you have a relationship with them or have already discussed the proposed work with them, please let us know.
Your CV
A research proposal (no more than 3 pages, not including references) outlining plans for research to be performed.

FAQs

How is this fellowship different from a Research Scientist position at Basis?

Differences
- Duration: The fellowship is time-limited, usually spanning 1 to 2 years, unlike the Research Scientist roles which are permanent positions.
- Academic Collaboration: Fellows will have co-mentorship from academic PIs.
- Emphasis on Publication: Fellows are expected to publish their research, aligning more closely with traditional academic roles.
Similarities
- Contributions to Core Technology: Like Research Scientists, fellows are expected to contribute code to Basis core technology. Basis will support Postdoctoral scientists without extensive software engineering experience to develop these skills.
- Research Funds: Fellows will have access to an annual allocation of research funds ($5,000) to be used for research expenses, skill development, conference attendance, and more.
- Integration with the Basis community: Fellows will participate in Basis events, on-sites, and other activities, and may collaborate on other Basis projects.

What happens after the fellowship?

Postdoctoral Fellows may be offered a full-time Research Scientist position at Basis, contingent upon performance and organizational needs.

Do I need to propose a collaborator PI? Can I apply without one?

We ask that you suggest three or more potential PIs you would be interested in working with in your cover letter. These might be people you’ve been in contact with before, or not. If you do have a relationship or have discussed your project ideas with them before, let us know. The eventual project collaborator is not required to come from this list.

Should I apply to the open call position, or to an established team position?

Applicants may apply to both, if desired.
Established team calls do not require submission of a Research Plan, as they are positioned within an existing Basis research area and are already internally and/or externally funded.
Established team calls are likely to move faster, for the same reasons.

Basis Research Institute provides equal employment opportunities without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or genetics and prohibits discrimination based on all protected characteristics.

Privacy Notice

By submitting your application, you grant Basis permission to use your materials for both hiring evaluation and recruitment-related research and development purposes. Your information may be processed in different countries, including the US. You retain copyright while providing Basis a license to use these materials for the stated purposes.
