About the Team
Our team brings OpenAIās most capable technology to the world through our APIs. Most recently, we released the GPT-4 API, the Assistants API, and the Whisper & TTS API. We empower developers with APIs that offer state-of-the-art AI capabilities ā allowing them to build product features that were never before possible.
Across all product lines, we ensure that these powerful tools are used responsibly. This is a key part of OpenAIās path towards safely deploying broadly beneficial Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Safety is more important to us than unfettered growth.

In this role, you will:
Manage and build out a diverse team of high performing full-stack and backend engineers.
Build an Assistants API product that developers love to use.
Set the direction and roadmap for the Assistants API alongside our product team.
Collaborate closely with a broad set of stakeholders, including product, design, go-to-market, and other engineering teams.Ā
Own execution and shipping cadence for the team
Coach and nurture engineers to accelerate their growth and learning.
You might thrive in this role if you:
Have 10+ years of experience in software engineering, including 5+ years of experience in engineering management
Have prior experience building out external facing API products at consumer internet scale
Take pride in building and operating scalable, reliable products and systems
Care deeply about diversity, equity, and inclusion, and have a track record of building inclusive teams
Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done
Have the ability to move fast in an environment where things are sometimes loosely defined and may have competing priorities or deadlines
