Whistleblower Attorney
ACC - Oregon Chapter
Date: 19 hours ago
City: Berkeley, CA
Contract type: Full time
Company: Legal Advocates for Safe Science and Technology (LASST) is a small team of dedicated professionals that uses legal advocacy to make advances in science and technology safer for people and the planet. LASST believes in the transformative power of science and technology to improve lives. While advances in science and technology bring incredible benefits, LASST’s mission is to ensure they are developed safely and deployed responsibly.
Position Overview: As Whistleblower Attorney, you'll be on the front lines of protecting the people best positioned to catch AI safety failures before they cause public harm. You'll work directly with engineers, researchers, and other insiders at frontier AI labs who are grappling with what to do when they see something wrong: providing them with the legal counsel, confidentiality, and confidence they need to disclose information safely and impactfully.
Much of this work happens before a disclosure is ever made. You'll build and maintain relationships across the Bay Area's AI ecosystem – with employees, former employees, contractors, and their counsel — so that when someone is wrestling with a difficult decision, you’re there as a trusted resource they already know how to reach. You'll help potential whistleblowers understand their legal protections and exposure, connect them with the right resources, and, where appropriate, represent them directly through disclosure, anti-retaliation claims, or related litigation.
This is relationship-driven, high-stakes work at the intersection of law, technology, and public accountability. Because you'll be embedded in the Bay Area's tech and AI community, you're uniquely positioned to build the kind of trust and access that makes whistleblowers feel safe enough to speak up; every relationship you build widens the safety net for the next person who needs it.
Experience: Approximately 5 years’ legal experience directly counseling clients, but will accept fewer years of experience for exceptional candidates.
Location: Bay area, CA working on a hybrid basis reporting to an office in Berkeley, CA. Some travel to attend conferences.
Compensation: $200K-$400K
