About the Team The Applied team brings OpenAI’s technology to the world through products used by hundreds of millions of people and by developers and businesses building on our APIs. We work across research, engineering, product, policy, safety, and operations to deploy frontier AI systems responsibly and safely. The Trust & Safety Data Engineering team builds the data foundations that help OpenAI understand, detect, investigate, and mitigate abuse and safety risks across our products. We partner with Integrity, Investigations, Safety Systems, Product Policy, Privacy, Data Science, Engineering, and Data Platform to create reliable, privacy-safe datasets and pipelines for fraud and abuse detection, enforcement workflows, safety measurement, ML feature generation, launch readiness, and transparency reporting. About the Role We are hiring a Technical Lead Manager to lead and grow the Trust & Safety Data Engineering team. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can set strategy, shape data architecture, align senior stakeholders, coach engineers, and drive execution on high-impact data systems. You will help turn fragmented launch and incident support into durable, reusable, privacy-safe data foundations that Trust & Safety teams can rely on. The systems your team builds will help OpenAI detect risk, investigate abuse, power operational workflows, develop and evaluate safety models, measure interventions, support product launches, and report accurately on platform integrity. In This Role, You Will Lead and grow a high-performing Trust & Safety Data Engineering team. Define the roadmap and technical strategy for Trust & Safety data systems. Build canonical, privacy-safe datasets and pipelines for abuse detection, fraud detection, risk signals, enforcement, scaled review, transparency reporting, and safety monitoring. Create reusable foundations for Trust & Safety model development, including features, labels, training data, backtesting,
About the Team Training Runtime builds the distributed systems that power OpenAI's largest model training runs - most recently GPT-5.5! The Data Movement area owns the infrastructure that keeps training jobs supplied with the right data at the right time, and keeps model state moving safely and efficiently across large clusters. Our work spans machine learning systems, distributed storage, high-throughput data loading, reliability engineering, and developer experience. Success means researchers can move quickly while training runs remain fast, reproducible, debuggable, and resilient at scale. About the Role We are looking for a deeply hands-on Technical Lead Manager to own datasets throughout our training infrastructure. This person will set the direction for how training jobs read data: the APIs, storage contracts, versioning model, benchmarks, debugging tools, and reliability guarantees that make data access consistent across current and future training frameworks. You will begin as the primary technical owner for dataset reads, working directly in the code while aligning researchers, training framework owners, storage teams, and infrastructure partners around a durable platform. The problem is deceptively hard at frontier scale: make enormous, heterogeneous datasets easy to consume, correct across distributed workers, observable when something goes wrong, and flexible enough to support pretraining, reinforcement learning, and multimodal training. In this role, you will Design and build a unified dataset read platform for multiple current and future training frameworks. Define dataset APIs, storage-format expectations, registration/versioning, and migration paths that make data access reproducible and maintainable. Build reliability into the read path, including stateful iteration, caching, fast restart, recovery, and clear operational contracts. Build terminal and web-based visualizers that let teams inspect text, multimodal, and reinforcement learning data late

Work closely with research teams to co-design model architectures that meet real-world deployment constraints such as latency, memory, power, and bandwidth. Analyze and model system performance, identifying tradeoffs between model design, memory hierarchy, compute throughput, and hardware capabilities. Partner with hardware vendors and internal infrastructure teams to bring up new accelerators and ensure efficient execution of transformer workloads. Build and lead a team of engineers responsible for implementing the low-level inference stack, including kernel development and runtime systems. Run through the necessary walls to take nascent research capabilities and turn them into capabilities we can build on top of. You might thrive in this role if you: Have experience evaluating or deploying workloads on GPUs, NPUs, or other specialized accelerators. Understand the performance characteristics of transformer models, including attention, KV-cache behavior, and memory bandwidth requirements. Have designed or optimized high-performance compute systems, such as inference engines, distributed runtimes, or hardware-aware ML pipelines. Have experience building or leading teams work
