About the Team OpenAI's Strategic Sourcing team helps the company scale responsibly, efficiently, and at speed.

Success requires strong economics, sound judgment under pressure, executive credibility, and the ability to bring stakeholders with you through difficult decisions. This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We u
