Staff Applied Scientist in United States

About the Team Consumer Monetization builds the experiences and systems that power how customers purchase and pay for OpenAI products. Our scope spans purchasing flows, payments, subscriptions, and billing, along with the shared capabilities that support new products, offers, and distribution channels. We own both customer-facing experiences and the underlying platforms that power them. We partner closely with Product, Design, Growth, Data Science, and engineering teams across OpenAI to make purchasing effective and reliable, and new offerings easier to launch and monetize. About the Role We’re looking for experienced Staff+ full-stack engineers to shape purchasing experiences and monetization capabilities across OpenAI products. You’ll work across web experiences, product APIs, and shared components, combining strong product judgment with technical depth. The work ranges from improving checkout conversion and performance to enabling new pricing models, offers, and ways for customers to purchase our products. You’ll help identify opportunities, turn ambiguous goals into concrete technical plans, and lead initiatives from exploration through launch. As patterns emerge across products, you’ll develop reusable capabilities that make future launches faster and more consistent. This is a hands-on technical leadership role with substantial ownership over architecture, implementation, and product outcomes. This role is based in San Francisco, with three days per week in the office. In this role, you will: Architect and build purchasing experiences end to end, from frontend interactions through the product APIs and backend integrations that support them. Improve checkout conversion, performance, and reliability through experimentation, product analytics, and customer insights. Develop shared checkout components and monetization capabilities that support new products, pricing models, offers, and distribution channels. Partner with Product, Design, Growth, and Data Science to

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: Airbnb is a vision and mission driven company, and our Product Managers embody that mindset. Platform PMs imagine the ideal end state for our community first, work backwards from it, and deliver it in a scalable way. The AI Assistant team owns the agentic AI system that powers Airbnb's support experience for millions of guests and hosts. This is one of the highest-visibility applied-AI efforts at the company, and it sits at the intersection of large language models, platform thinking, and a genuinely two-sided marketplace. The Difference You Will Make: You will own the platform that determines how our AI Assistant reasons, retrieves, and responds: the layer that interprets each request and routes it, the knowledge and capabilities the assistant draws on, the actions it can take to actually resolve an issue, and the evaluation systems that keep it safe and accurate at scale. You will own what a good outcome looks like for the user, and the criteria we measure it against, working through partners who own the underlying knowledge and the engineering implementation. This is a role where Product both directs technical work and does it themselves. You will diagnose architectural problems, author the artifacts that become production behavior, and help drive engineering and data science decisions alongside your key partners. Support is high-stakes: people reach out when something has gone wrong, often with another party involved. You will be responsible for making those moments accurate, safe, and genuinely helpful, increasing how often the assistant fully and correctly resolves

About the Team ChatGPT is a rapidly evolving system: new capabilities ship continuously, product surfaces change quickly, and usage patterns shift week-to-week. Supporting that pace requires infrastructure that can handle real production constraints—high concurrency, unpredictable traffic patterns, complex dependency graphs, and frequent change. The ChatGPT Infrastructure team builds and operates the platforms that enable fast iteration without compromising performance or reliability. We design shared systems, data paths, rollout mechanisms, and reliability guardrails that teams rely on to ship changes to ChatGPT at scale. We focus on high-leverage infrastructure: primitives and “golden paths” that incorporate operational lessons as defaults, so engineers don’t need to rediscover failure modes, latency pitfalls, or integration issues each time they build something new. About the Role We’re hiring Senior and Staff Engineers to design and build infrastructure systems that underlie ChatGPT and multiply the effectiveness of teams building user experiences. This is not a support-only role. It’s a platform-building role: you’ll define interfaces, develop core abstractions, and create tooling to make safe, fast iteration the norm. Your work will reduce friction, prevent regressions, improve performance, and ensure systems scale gracefully as the product grows. Where You Can Have Impact You might work on one or more of the following areas (without being restricted to any single area): Platform foundations & frameworks: Core libraries, service frameworks, and shared components that standardize system building, integration, and evolution. Scalability & performance primitives: Patterns and infrastructure that reduce tail latency, improve throughput, and keep costs predictable as demand increases. Reliability guardrails: Mechanisms that prevent outages by design—rate limiting, load shedding, dependency isolation, backpressure, safe fallbacks, and robust regression contr

Headquartered in Silicon Valley and with offices in London, Bangalore and Vancouver, Ema is at the frontier of what Agentic AI can do in production — we ship real systems that run real business processes at scale. The Role The Customer Engagement Manager owns a portfolio of strategic enterprise accounts end-to-end: every engagement, every outcome, every relationship, every expansion opportunity. Think of this as the McKinsey Associate Partner model applied to enterprise AI delivery. You are the single point of accountability for your accounts. The customer calls you — not your manager — when they have a problem. You staff delivery teams, oversee solution quality, run executive readouts, measure ROI, drive adoption, rebuild trust when things break, and grow the book through proven production value. This is not a project management role. This is an account ownership role that combines delivery orchestration, outcome ownership, customer leadership, and commercial growth. What You’ll Own 1. Account Ownership Own your accounts end-to-end: every engagement, every outcome, every relationship. Everything good or bad stops with you. Be the single point of contact the customer calls for any problem — delivery, quality, adoption, escalation, or expansion. Maintain a holistic view of each account: engagement status, risk exposure, opportunity pipeline, and the customer’s strategic priorities for the qua
