Hi Peter! I often see the MIT FutureTech positions, and as an economics major who is about to graduate, I would love to apply, but it’s a pity they don’t sponsor visas. From what I understand, this seems to be a common issue across MIT, as I’ve noticed that many of their predoc and similar positions also don’t sponsor visa. I know this might not be something you can change, but it would be great if there could be options for visa sponsorship, or even remote independent contracting. In any case, I think the work you all do is fantastic!
Hey! Yes, this is related to MIT/US immigration challenges and not something we can easily fix, unfortunately. We do sometimes hire people remotely. If you would like to express interest working with/for us, then you can submit a general expression of interest here.
