GTM Engineer

OpenAI Research Services
Hybrid San Francisco, CA Posted 3 months ago

TL;DR

OpenAI's GTM Innovation lab needs a builder—someone to turn our AI into tools sales teams can actually use in the wild.

Your canvas: the full OpenAI API, a fast‑moving sales team hungry for leverage, and permission to ship rough drafts that solve real problems today.

Daily flow: code in Python or JavaScript, shadow sales calls, spot patterns, build quick fixes, then polish the ones that stick. No red tape between you and results.

Who fits: 4+ years shipping user‑facing stuff, comfortable with LLMs, and the kind of engineer who'd rather talk to users than hide in a spec document.

The trade: $220‑280k in SF, 3 days in‑office, relocation covered, and a front‑row seat to how frontier AI actually lands in the real world.
