About the role
About the Team The ChatGPT Space team is rethinking what work looks like when teams and agents can create together. We are building a shared workspace where a rough idea can become a polished, editable artifact, from Pages, Sheets, and Slides to entirely new kinds of work products. Our ambition is to build the best place for teams and agents to turn ideas into things they could not make alone. The work should keep evolving after the first draft, drawing on shared context, improving through collaboration, and staying current as a project moves forward. This is a high-agency team working across product, design, and research. We partner closely with model training teams to shape how frontier models create and edit artifacts, then bring those capabilities into a coherent experience across Pages, files, and tools. The work spans full-stack product engineering, editing and rendering systems, model integration, and collaboration, with a high bar for taste, correctness, and speed.
