The World’s Greatest Minds 

Our mission is to raise AGI with the richness of human intelligence — curious, witty, imaginative, and full of unexpected brilliance.

Surge was founded by engineers and researchers who dreamed of building the next generation AI. We're building a platform that powers the most powerful models in the world in partnership with companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google.

At Surge, we believe the path to AGI isn't just about scaling compute—it's about embracing the unlimited ceiling of human intelligence and creativity in the data that shapes these systems. Our platform combines elite human expertise with cutting-edge tools for scalable oversight, from building rich RL environments to conducting rigorous evaluations that go beyond benchmarks. We've run a profitable business from day one without raising venture funding.

As a Medical Fellow, you’ll bring advanced clinical reasoning, diagnostic judgment, and ethical clarity to the data that trains next-generation AI systems. You’ll help formalize how expert clinicians think — weighing uncertain evidence, prioritizing competing outcomes, and reasoning transparently under time and resource constraints.

The work bridges medicine and cognition. You’ll design and evaluate scenarios that reflect real-world diagnostic complexity, treatment tradeoffs, and moral reasoning, helping shape how models learn to balance precision, empathy, and accountability.

• Medical Credentials – Board-certified physician or senior subspecialty fellow from a leading academic or teaching institution (required)
  
• Clinical Reasoning Expertise – Deep experience managing complex or ambiguous cases in internal medicine, critical care, emergency medicine, or equivalent fields
  
• Ethical and Analytical Judgment – Ability to articulate uncertainty, risk, and tradeoff reasoning with nuance and transparency‍
• Communication Clarity – Strength in explaining decision processes clearly for interdisciplinary audiences

• Reviewing model diagnostic reasoning for completeness, accuracy, and ethical soundness
  
• Designing complex patient scenarios that test diagnostic reasoning and prioritization under uncertainty
  
• Writing exemplar clinical notes, consults, or reasoning summaries that model expert-level synthesis
  
• Collaborating with Surge researchers to encode medical reasoning, triage logic, and ethical frameworks into datasets

As a VC Partner, you’ll bring the judgment, pattern recognition, and analytical discipline that define world-class investing. You’ll evaluate and refine strategic reasoning tasks drawn from venture and company-building contexts — assessing market fit, founder quality, competitive advantage, and portfolio construction with the same rigor you apply in live investment settings.

This role calls for synthesis across ambiguity — the ability to weigh partial signals, think in scenarios, and distill conviction from incomplete information. Your perspective will help shape how models learn to reason about innovation, capital allocation, and long-term value creation.

• Venture Leadership Experience – Current or former Associate, Partner, General Partner, or Managing Director at a VC firm.
  
• Investment Judgment – Deep experience evaluating early- and growth-stage opportunities, with a strong sense of founder quality and market inflection
  
• Strategic and Analytical Clarity – Ability to dissect business models, identify defensibility, and assess upside and execution risk

As a CEO, you’ll bring strategic judgment, pattern recognition, and organizational insight shaped by real leadership experience. You’ll help design and review complex decision-making datasets that mirror the tradeoffs faced by senior executives — resource allocation, risk management, growth strategy, culture, and crisis response.

The work calls for clarity of thought under constraint. You’ll model how experienced leaders synthesize incomplete information, align stakeholders, and chart decisive paths through uncertainty. Your perspective will help train systems to think not just analytically, but executively — to reason in terms of impact, sequence, and consequence.

• Executive Leadership Experience – Former CEO, President, or equivalent senior executive at a VC-backed or bootstrapped startup (required)
  
• Strategic Acumen – Track record of navigating complex tradeoffs and setting organizational direction across competing priorities

As a Management Consultant, you’ll bring the structured reasoning, synthesis, and executive judgment that define world-class consulting. You’ll help model how top partners approach unstructured business problems — framing ambiguous situations, developing hypotheses, pressure-testing data, and crafting compelling, insight-driven recommendations.

You won’t be running client engagements — you’ll be encoding the thinking systems behind them. This is a role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, combines analytical precision with narrative clarity, and can distill the rigor of elite consulting into reproducible examples that train frontier AI systems to reason strategically.

• Top-Tier Consulting Pedigree – Current or Former Partner, Principal, or Senior Engagement Manager at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, or an equivalent strategy firm
  
• Strategic Problem-Solving – Proven ability to break down complex, cross-functional challenges into structured, hypothesis-driven frameworks
  
• Executive Communication – Facility with board-level synthesis, storyline architecture, and succinct, persuasive recommendations‍
• Quality Bar & Judgment – Deep sense of analytical rigor, prioritization, and what “great” looks like in client-ready insight generation

• Rewriting model-generated strategy analyses into consulting-grade narratives and frameworks
  
• Designing evaluation datasets that capture partner-level reasoning under uncertainty and constraint
  
• Reviewing outputs for logic gaps, synthesis quality, and executive readability
  
• Collaborating with Surge researchers to formalize consulting-style problem solving for model training and evaluation

As an Investment Banker, you’ll translate real dealmaking rigor into high-fidelity datasets for training next-gen AI. You’ll structure complex, multi-constraint scenarios (M&A, financing, markets), craft evaluation rubrics that mirror client-ready deliverables, and rewrite model outputs to reflect how top bankers reason under pressure and incomplete information.

You won’t be pitching live deals — you’ll be encoding the judgment behind them. This is a role for someone who thrives on clarity under ambiguity, balances detail with narrative, and can turn messy business contexts into crisp analysis and decision frameworks.

‍

• Bulge-Bracket Background – Current or former banker at a top-tier firm (e.g., Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley; preferred) with exposure to M&A and capital market
• Analytical Communication – Ability to produce client-grade materials: tight comps, defensible assumptions, and clear recommendation path
• Process Discipline – Methodical approach to QA, source hygiene, and reproducibility within data-centric workflows

• Rewriting model analyses into banker-quality output: investment memos, board-level summaries, and sensitivity commentary
  
• Designing scenario banks that capture realistic constraints (valuation ranges, covenant limits, market windows) with transparent assumptions
  
• Reviewing outputs for reasoning gaps: mis-specified drivers, flawed comps selection, or inconsistent cash-flow logic
  
• Partnering with Surge researchers to build evaluation suites that test prioritization, trade-offs, and executive-ready recommendations
