The prediction platform Metaculus is interested in a part or full-time project lead for their new pandemic site.
You get to administer and choose a lot of questions for Metaculus forecasters to predict things on, as well as decide things like question resolution.
I think this is a plausibly useful thing to do because expert forecasts are all over the place, so if you figure out a way to help shepherd/guide amateurs to forecast well, I see a plausible world where Metaculus increasingly gets used to help with more decisions (a la Good Judgement project).
I also generally think it might be valuable to have more superforecasters and similar people in our community.
