About the Role

OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity. We believe that achieving our goal requires effective engagement with public policy stakeholders and the broader community impacted by AI.

The Global Affairs team builds authentic, collaborative relationships with public officials and the broader AI policymaking community to inform and support our shared work in these domains.

  • Collaborate closely with the Global Affairs and GRC teams to ensure a seamless stakeholder experience.

  • Use your expertise in programming with Python and Javascript.

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Have 7+ years of technical consulting (or equivalent) experience.

  • Are proficient in Python and Javascript.

  • Built and/or delivered prototypes on top of our API platform.

  • Led complex technical projects and programs with many stakeholders.

  • Can proactively identify opportunities for maximizing our stakeholder value through leveraging the OpenAI API.

  • Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done to ensure both your team and our stakeholders succeed.

  • Have a humble attitude and an eagerness to help others with empathy.

  • Operate with high horsepower, are adept at frequent context switching and working on multiple projects at once with expansive ownership, and ruthlessly prioritize.
