Responsibilities
- 01Partner with product, engineering, research, and design to shape technical roadmaps, long-term platform direction, and safeguards priorities across ChatGPT, API, enterprise, and cloud environments
- 02Translate product and safety objectives into execution plans that balance near-term delivery, long-term platform evolution, customer needs, and responsible deployment
- 03Lead cross-functional programs end to end—from problem definition and technical design through implementation, launch, iteration, and operational follow-through
- 04Own milestones, dependencies, risk mitigation, decision-making, and accountability across engineering, infrastructure, integrity, trust and safety, legal, policy, operations, and go-to-market teams
- 05Partner with engineers on system architecture, public and internal APIs, cloud deployment patterns, platform integrations, operational failure modes, and technical tradeoffs
- 06Drive the development, integration, or rollout of safeguards such as model evaluations, post-training mitigations, classifiers, abuse detection, monitoring, enforcement workflows, human review, and agent-assisted review
- 07Coordinate readiness for sensitive or high-impact deployments, ensuring appropriate safety coverage, escalation paths, operational controls, and alignment with external cloud or enterprise partners
- 08Identify emerging misuse and severe-harm risks; define ownership and response mechanisms across prevention, detection, investigation, enforcement, and continuous improvement
- 09Establish meaningful metrics for program delivery, deployment readiness, safety effectiveness, operational quality, and user or developer experience
- 10Represent customer and developer needs in technical and leadership decisions, balancing risk reduction, model usefulness, implementation complexity, speed, and scale
- 11Communicate program health, risks, recommendations, and consequential tradeoffs clearly to engineering teams, cross-functional partners, and executives
- 12Improve delivery and safety outcomes through practical operating mechanisms, scalable tooling, and data- or AI-assisted workflows
Requirements
- 01Have a strong track record of delivering high-impact technical programs across product, platform, API, infrastructure, machine learning, or safety domains
- 02Bring strong technical judgment across distributed systems, cloud deployments, public or internal APIs, developer platforms, production machine learning, or scalable product architecture
- 03Can engage credibly with engineers on system design, implementation tradeoffs, reliability, deployment constraints, and operational risks
- 04Have delivered platforms or developer-facing capabilities and understand how technical decisions affect customer experience, developer experience, and product usefulness
- 05Understand how safety, integrity, or abuse-prevention systems work, including evaluations, model guardrails, classifiers, monitoring, enforcement, investigations, and incident response
- 06Bring strong program management discipline and can coordinate multiple workstreams, resolve complex dependencies, and turn ambiguity into accountable execution
- 07Demonstrate product judgment and can balance user and customer needs with model usefulness, safety risk, technical complexity, and business priorities
- 08Communicate clearly and empathetically with engineering teams, executives, policy and legal partners, and external stakeholders
- 09Are comfortable owning high-stakes programs that require executive presence, cross-organizational influence, and sound decisions under uncertainty
- 10Have relevant experience with sensitive deployments, major cloud providers, or serious-harm domains such as violent misuse, child safety, cybersecurity
