Despite ample need for materials science in pandemic prevention, electrical engineers in climate change, civil engineers in civilisational resilience, and bioengineering in alternative proteins, EA has not yet built a community fostering the talent needed to meet these needs.
Also engineers who work on AI hardware, e.g. to help develop the technologies and processes needed to implement most compute governance ideas!
You’re absolutely right! I think there are probably many more areas where engineers are needed, as well as future cause areas that we haven’t discovered/explored yet so this is definitely not an exhaustive list. We’re open to chatting with anybody/any organisation who has or forecasts a deficit of engineering expertise to find out how we can help!

Just came here to comment the same. :)
See this profile by 80k, this post, and my sequence for more.
Also, don’t hesitate to reach out if you want to hear more about roles for AI hardware experts or if someone is interested.
Thank you! Would definitely like to chat :)
