Careers for
Changemakers
Let’s build the future of human connection, together.
The Rithm Project exists to grow the intergenerational force of leaders needed to reclaim and rebuild human connectionin the age of AI.
Over the next decade, we’re building a powerful network—and a broader cultural strategy—to galvanize 10 million young people to choose authentic connection and to use AI in ways that strengthen, rather than replace, what makes us human.
That’s an audacious goal. It will take wisdom, imagination, and deep care from leaders at the forefront of technology, learning, mental health, culture, policy, and beyond. But the connective tissue of this movement is our small but mighty core team—the people translating big ideas into real-world impact, day by day.
If you’re fired up about pushing back on isolation and helping young people become agents of change in rebuilding human connection, we want to get to know you.
Open Roles
-
As the Head of Creative Studio, you are the creative engine that brings The Rithm Project’s ideas, insights, and provocations to broad audiences.
You’ll play a key synthesis and translation role for the organization — spotting patterns and insights across our research and the work of our Changemaker Network, and translating them into a cohesive strategy of stories, products, and experiences that capture hearts and shift culture.
This role exists to hold a through-line between what the field needs to understand next, and what is actually produced, shipped, and felt. The Head of Creative Studio ensures that The Rithm Project’s voice is nuanced, youth-centered, soulful and actionable.
Zines, social media campaigns, school curricula, interactive games, op-eds and immersive theater may be your tools — but your north star is a tipping point: 10 million young people, and the adults who support them, actively choosing human connection and using AI to strengthen rather than erode relationships.
-
As a Rithm Fellow, you are the youth leadership force responsible for realizing The Rithm Project’s mission of building for and by young people in service of human connection in the age of AI.
You’ll play a targeted but key role in bringing The Rithm Project’s ideas, research, and provocations to the world — representing Rithm (and youth leadership perspective) at conferences and summits, co-designing research and tools that reach young people and the adults that support them, and shaping Rithm’s thought leadership on human connection in the age of AI.
Don’t See the Right Role?
Our constellation is wide- we’re always interested in meeting people aligned with our mission — especially researchers, designers, educators, facilitators, storytellers, and community builders.
Why We Do This Work
Loneliness, fragmentation, and disconnection are defining challenges of our time — especially for younger generations growing up alongside rapidly advancing technology that promises to simulate many of the things that once made humans distinct.
At The Rithm Project, we don’t just study these dynamics.
We build research, tools, narratives, and communities that help young people reclaim agency, belonging, and relational depth in a world shaped by AI.
