Goodfire is an AI interpretability research lab. We build interpretability agents and infrastructure to understand, monitor, and align AI models.
We believe that AI is the most consequential technology of our time. Yet AI models are trained by trial and error today, with limited understanding of what drives their behavior. Our goal is to advance the research and technology needed to fully understand and align AI so humanity can trust superintelligence.
Goodfire is a public benefit corporation founded by researchers who helped pioneer the field of interpretability at OpenAI and Google DeepMind. We are headquartered in San Francisco and have raised over $200M from leading investors including Lightspeed, Menlo, and B Capital.
Goodfire is tackling one of the most urgent and technically complex challenges in AI: making advanced systems interpretable and aligned. We’re looking to connect with senior leaders who’ve built and scaled high-performing teams, navigated critical growth phases, and delivered at the frontier of emerging technology.
Whether your background is in engineering, research, operations, or organizational leadership, you’ll help shape strategy, guide high-impact technical work, and build the structure and culture for a fast-moving, mission-driven organization.
