About the role
About the Team The Intelligence & Investigations team works to rapidly detect, understand, and disrupt abuse involving AI technologies to ensure they are used safely and responsibly. We identify emerging abuse trends, analyze risks, and partner across OpenAI to develop mitigation strategies that strengthen product safety and support high-stakes decision-making. Our work contributes directly to OpenAI’s mission of ensuring AI benefits all of humanity. About the Role We are seeking a technical builder and operator to help extend Intelligence & Investigations capabilities into external-facing environments.

The right person for this role is highly technical, but not limited to a narrow engineering lane. They can prototype and build, work directly with users, understand operational problems, and help turn emerging concepts into practical capabilities. They are comfortable moving between product thinking, technical implementation, external engagement, and cross-functional coordination. They are also motivated by the responsible use of AI in high-stakes environments and eager to help bring advanced technical capabilities to partners who need them. This role is based in San Francisco, CA; Washington D.C.; or New York, NY.
