Assistant Director, Reunion Leadership & Giving

08-Nov-2024<h4>Program Director</h4>Harvard Law School 67354BRJob SummaryThe Institutional Data Initiative (IDI) is a new research center working to advance society’s relationship with knowledge by expanding access to, and deepening our understanding of, the data that underpins AI. By collaborating with library, government, and academic institutions to publish their knowledge collections as AI training sets, IDI seeks to 1) empower those institutions and the cultures they represent, 2) build a foundational pipeline for academic inquiry of AI, and 3) advance the state of the art for all builders of AI systems.&nbsp;IDI’s work spans the AI data ecosystem—from digitization, data structuring, and metadata synthesis, to safety and security analysis, all the way through to benchmarking and the development of ethical and governance frameworks. Institutional collaboration forms the gateway to this work and IDI places a particular emphasis on opportunities with institutions that expand the cultural breadth of knowledge represented in the building blocks of AI.&nbsp;At its core, IDI is a data practice around which other interdisciplinary work is convened. While theory and analysis are critical components of IDI’s work, our impact is a direct factor of our ability to ship novel data. As such, IDI’s workflows resemble those of a product studio. Our projects are time-bound and scopes are driven by ambition within time constraints. Our team structure is relatively flat and each member is expected to bring vision for their work and drive it through to completion. We prioritize interdisciplinary collaboration with academic contributors, both internal and external, as essential work that prevents the commodification of the data we help to publish.&nbsp;The Program Director will support the Executive Director and oversee the day-to-day strategy and operations of the initiative. The Program Director's goal will be to facilitate high-throughput research workflows by implementing and overseeing minimal organizational structures. The person in this position will navigate a variety of complex institutional structures and relationships, both at Harvard and at collaborating institutions, in order to ensure the initiative can work efficiently and effectively.The Program Director will be tasked with managing items both big and small—from developing new opportunities to acting as an extension and amplifier of the Executive Director’s capacity.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Program Director must have a strong interest in IDI’s mission and while tech experience is a plus, an ability to triage tasks and ensure their completion, develop relationships that clear the way for execution, and bring strong but flexible vision is more important than a deep knowledge of AI technologies.&nbsp;In addition to IDI’s internal stakeholders, the person in this role will help build a community around IDI’s work to enable outside collaborators—fellow technologists, academics, students, cultural stakeholders—to expand our capabilities, capacity, and perspectives. IDI operates within Harvard and alongside the Library Innovation Lab, the Berkman Klein Center, and the Applied Social Media Lab; engaging these communities, among others, is critical to delivering on our mission.&nbsp;Position DescriptionAs a Program Director, you will:&nbsp;<ul><li>Partner with the Executive Director to develop and implement the initiative’s strategic vision and priorities and to communicate direction to staff.&nbsp;</li><li>Assist with selection and development of new projects, activities, and initiatives.&nbsp;</li><li>Assist with hiring and managing teams across the initiative.&nbsp;</li><li>Design and manage operational processes for the initiative – including staff management and meetings, information flow, reporting, and resource planning.&nbsp;</li><li>Participate in financial management, budget planning, and fundraising, including development activities and helping to generate proposals for future programs.&nbsp;</li><li>Build, promote, and strengthen internal and external collaboration across staff and senior-level stakeholders.&nbsp;</li><li>Contribute to decision-making across initiative’s leadership including between the Faculty Director and Executive Director.&nbsp;</li></ul>Basic QualificationsBachelor’s degree and at least eight years of relevant work experience.&nbsp;Additional Qualifications and SkillsWe are looking for people who have:&nbsp;<ul><li>A desire to create public-interest impact on AI and an interest in learning about the underlying technologies.&nbsp;</li><li>Proven success managing complex and strategic efforts across organizations.&nbsp;</li><li>Experience supporting and amplifying an executive partner.&nbsp;</li><li>Experience managing internal and external stakeholders.&nbsp;</li><li>Experience managing product teams, ideally technical.&nbsp;</li><li>Ability to leverage networks in public interest technology.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>Working ConditionsTravel is required for quarterly on-site meetings. Occasional travel for conferences and events as needed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Additional InformationThis is a two-year term appointment with potential for renewal subject to funding and departmental need.&nbsp;&nbsp; Given the multidisciplinary nature of our work, we encourage a short cover letter to explain how your career trajectory and interests align with our work and mission.&nbsp; We regret that Harvard Law School is unable to provide visa sponsorship for staff positions.&nbsp; &nbsp; All offers to be made by HLS Human Resources.&nbsp;Work Format DetailsThis position works a combination of on-campus and remote work based on business needs and manager approval. The opportunity for 100% remote work is available for applicants who live more than 50 miles from the Harvard Law School campus. All remote work must be performed within a state in which Harvard is registered to do business (CA, CT, GA, IL, MA, MD, ME, NH, NJ, NY, RI, VA, VT and WA).&nbsp;About UsBe a part of excellence and leadership in legal education and scholarship at Harvard Law School.

08-Nov-2024<h4>Principal Engineer</h4>Harvard Law School 67356BRPosition DescriptionThe Institutional Data Initiative (IDI) is a new research center working to advance society’s relationship with knowledge by expanding access to, and deepening our understanding of, the data that underpins AI. By collaborating with library, government, and academic institutions to publish their knowledge collections as AI training sets, IDI seeks to 1) empower those institutions and the cultures they represent, 2) build a foundational pipeline for academic inquiry of AI, and 3) advance the state of the art for all builders of AI systems.&nbsp;IDI’s work spans the AI data ecosystem—from digitization, data structuring, and metadata synthesis, to safety and security analysis, all the way through to benchmarking and the development of ethical and governance frameworks. Institutional collaboration forms the gateway to this work and IDI places a particular emphasis on opportunities with institutions that expand the cultural breadth of knowledge represented in the building blocks of AI.&nbsp;At its core, IDI is a data practice around which other interdisciplinary work is convened. While theory and analysis are critical components of IDI’s work, our impact is a direct factor of our ability to ship novel data. As such, IDI’s workflows resemble those of a product studio. Our projects are time-bound and scopes are driven by ambition within time constraints. Our team structure is relatively flat and each member is expected to bring vision for their work and drive it through to completion. We prioritize interdisciplinary collaboration with academic contributors, both internal and external, as essential work that prevents the commodification of the data we help to publish.&nbsp;The technical capabilities of our Principal Engineers define the depth of analysis and inquiry at IDI while developing and deploying repeatable methods and pipelines. The person in this role will have an ability to think creatively about extracting and manipulating data to unlock knowledge collections that have been stubbornly inaccessible, sometimes for centuries. Their understanding of machine learning and AI fundamentals will help identify areas of high impact and utilize models to facilitate this work. Each Principal Engineer must bring a unique set of skills and approaches to a team of engineers whose distinct capabilities complement the whole. This team works together to build an action plan for each corpus that takes it from uncharted territory to a well-defined map that others can traverse.&nbsp;&nbsp;Beyond data, Principal Engineers also contribute to the building of community around IDI’s work to enable outside collaborators—fellow technologists, academics, students, cultural stakeholders—to expand our capabilities, capacity, and perspectives.
