At OpenAI, our User Safety & Risk Operations (USRO) team helps protect our products and users from abuse, fraud, safety risks, and other forms of misuse. We operate at the front line of real-world safety and risk management, translating user and operational signals into timely decisions, effective interventions, and improvements to our systems.
This role sits on a team focused on building operational capacity for new, ambiguous, and fast-moving areas of work. The team defines what needs to be built, creates the operating model to support it, and works with partner teams to make the work scalable and durable over time.
About the Role
We are seeking a Device Safety & Risk Operations Specialist to build the safety operating model for a new category of consumer hardware. This is a senior individual-contributor role for someone who can turn emerging product risks and incomplete requirements into practical workflows, controls, launch plans, and durable systems.
You will define how product-safety incidents, critical escalations, regulated cases, and privacy-sensitive issues should be identified, investigated, escalated, resolved, and learned from. You will also establish operational requirements for case management, data access, decision logging, quality assurance, monitoring, and cross-functional response. You will stand up priority workflows through launch and early operations, then help transition them into durable homes across USRO and partner teams.
The right person combines deep operational judgment with strong technical and hardware product fluency. They can move from executive-level risk framing to detailed workflow design, tabletop exercises, launch readiness, frontline guidance, and post-launch improvement.
Location / work model: San Francisco, CA; hybrid, 3 days/week in-office.
Please note: This role may involve exposure to sensitive or concerning material. Strong discretion, judgment, and resilience are essential.
In This Role, You Will:
Build the end-to-end safety and risk operating model for new consumer hardware, from early requirements through launch and early-life operations.
Develop operational playbooks for product-safety incidents, critical escalations, safety advisories, corrective actions, and other high-risk events.
Design workflows for regulated and privacy-sensitive cases, including restricted handling, evidence requirements, auditability, and partner escalation.
Translate safety and operational needs into requirements for tooling, case management, data access, monitoring, logging, and automation.
Establish clear ownership boundaries across Product, Engineering, Legal, Privacy, Product Policy, Support, Product Quality, and other operational partners.
Use operational data, customer signals, product telemetry, and case outcomes to identify patterns and improve upstream products and systems.
Determine where AI and automation can improve triage, evidence assembly, consistency, and response while preserving appropriate human judgment.
Stand up priority workflows, operate them through launch and early-life stabilization, and transition them into durable homes across USRO and partner teams.
You Might Thrive in This Role If You:
Have 8+ years of relevant experience in device safety, product safety, consumer hardware operations, technical program management, or a related field.
Have built a complex safety or risk program from an ambiguous starting point through launch and scaled operation.
Understand the realities of handling high-severity incidents, regulated workflows, sensitive customer information, and time-critical escalations.
Can translate product, engineering, legal, privacy, and policy constraints into workflows that operational teams can execute.
Are technically fluent and can reason through data flows, telemetry, access controls, audit logs, case systems, automation, and failure modes.
Use data to assess workflow health, identify emerging patterns, evaluate quality, and make risk-based decisions.
Can establish clear accountability across teams with overlapping responsibilities and different risk tolerances.
Know how to balance launch speed with safety controls, monitoring, rollback criteria, and longer-term system development.
Communicate clearly with operational, technical, legal, and executive audiences when evidence is incomplete or tradeoffs are difficult.
Are highly practical and willing to build the workflow, not only define the strategy.
Experience supporting consumer hardware, connected devices, or other products used in shared environments.

About the Role
As an Android Systems Engineer, you will help define and build the Android platform capabilities behind the next generation of AI-powered consumer experiences.
This is not a traditional application-only Android role. You will work across the Android stack, using system-level APIs, device capabilities, platform integrations, and OEM-specific functionality to create experiences that would be difficult or impossible to build as a conventional mobile application.
You will help determine what becomes possible when an AI assistant is deeply integrated with a mobile device: how it understands what is happening, interacts naturally with the user, connects across apps and services, and helps complete multi-step tasks.
You will work closely with product, design, AI, backend, platform, and external device partners to take new concepts from prototype to production. The role requires strong technical judgment, product intuition, and comfort navigating areas where the platform, APIs, and product patterns are still evolving.
This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of four days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.
In this role, you will:
Build deeply integrated Android experiences: Design and implement product experiences that take advantage of Android platform capabilities.
Work across the Android platform: Develop against Android framework and system APIs, system services, lifecycle and background execution primitives, inter-process communication, permissions, notifications, intents, and other platform capabilities.
Unlock device capabilities: Identify and use capabilities such as audio, camera, sensors, connectivity, location, notifications, credentials, and other device signals to enable useful, context-aware AI experiences.
Build agentic mobile experiences: Develop systems that allow AI-powered experiences to help users complete multi-step tasks and coordinate actions across applications, services, and device functionality.
Create scalable abstractions: Turn device-specific capabilities into well-designed platform layers and reusable components that can support multiple Android devices, OEMs, form factors, and product experiences.
Prototype new interaction models: Rapidly explore new Android capabilities, APIs, and device features to understand what is technically possible and help shape product direction.
Own experiences end to end: Take ideas from early technical exploration through architecture, implementation, testing, launch, and iteration in production.
Build for reliability and performance: Ensure experiences remain fast, power-efficient, resilient, and reliable across a diverse Android device ecosystem.
Design for privacy and security: Carefully handle permissions, user data, device access, authentication, and system capabilities while maintaining clear user control and trust.
Partner across disciplines: Work closely with product, design, research, backend, AI, systems, and partner engineering teams to turn emerging AI capabilities into cohesive consumer experiences.
Help define the future platform: Stay current with new Android releases, APIs, device capabilities, and ecosystem developments, and use that knowledge to identify opportunities for entirely new product experiences.
You might thrive in this role if you:
Have deep experience building and shipping high-quality Android software used by real customers.
Have strong knowledge of the Android platform beyond UI and application development, including framework APIs, system services, process and application lifecycle, permissions, IPC, background execution, and device capabilities.
Are highly proficient in Kotlin and/or Java and comfortable working across a large Android codebase.
Have experience working with AOSP, Android framework internals, system applications, privileged APIs, device software, or OEM-specific Android integrations.
Have experience integrating software with hardware or device capabilities and enjoy debugging problems that cross application, operating-system, and device boundaries.
Understand the realities of building across the Android ecosystem, including OS versions, device configurations, OEM customizations, permissions, power management, and platform fragmentation.
Care deeply about product quality and user experience, not just technical correctness.
Think creatively about what new platform capabilities make possible and enjoy turning emerging technology into intuitive consumer experiences.
Thrive in ambiguous, rapidly changing environments where the right technical and product approach is not obvious at the outset.
Take ownership of problems, develop strong points of view, and can independently drive work from exploration through production.
Enjoy 0→1 product development and are energized by building experiences for which established patterns may not yet exist.
Stay current with new Android technologies, APIs, operating-system capabilities, and broader developments across the mobile ecosystem.
Collaborate effectively with internal teams and external platform or device partners.

Lead end-to-end design for data-intensive products used by engineers, researchers, and product teams.
Shape the complete learning loop: instrument, launch, observe, investigate, evaluate, decide, and iterate.
Create clear, high-craft workflows for querying, filtering, comparison, drill-down, visualization, alerting, and sharing.
Make complex concepts—including data freshness, coverage, reliability, uncertainty, experiment assignment, metric validity, rollout state, and regressions—understandable and actionable.
Partner closely with engineering, data science, research, and product management to translate deeply technical infrastructure into elegant, coherent product experiences.
Use prototyping, research, and rigorous design exploration to establish interaction patterns for emerging technical and AI-native workflows.
Define shared systems and patterns that create consistency across OpenAI’s enterprise and internal tools.
Establish a high bar for information architecture, visual hierarchy, interaction quality, and craft across complex, multi-surface products.
You might thrive in this role if you:
Have substantial experience owning data products, observability platforms, experimentation systems, analytics products, developer tools, AI/ML tooling, or similarly technical workflows.
Are a strong product and systems thinker who can set direction in an ambiguous space and make durable interaction and platform decisions.
Can make dense information feel calm, legible, and useful without oversimplifying important complexity.
Are technically fluent, enjoy learning how underlying systems work, and can build credibility with engineers and other highly technical users.
Have strong instincts for trust and understand how provenance, reliability, uncertainty, permissions, and edge cases affect whether people act on a system’s output.
Have redesigned workflows spanning multiple tools, products, or surfaces and can create coherence across a broader ecosystem.
Have strong UX/UI and interaction design skills, with a high bar for contemporary visual craft and information design.
Can demonstrate how your work changed product decisions, accelerated learning, or improved the velocity of the teams you supported.
Enjoy staying close to detailed workflows and hands-on design while helping shape a broader product vision.
Are excited to define how engineers and AI agents will build, evaluate, and improve software together.

OpenAI’s Sourcing and Procurement organization helps the company acquire and scale the products, services, and partnerships needed to advance its mission. As the organization grows, we are looking for a strategic builder-operator to establish an AI-led contracting capability that improves speed, consistency, and execution across the company.
In this role, you will partner with leaders and stakeholders across Procurement, Legal, Finance, Security, Engineering, and business teams to design and oversee the contracting process from intake through negotiation and lifecycle management. You will bring structure to ambiguity, align partners around shared priorities, and build repeatable operating mechanisms, responsible AI-assisted workflows, and a centralized contract lifecycle management (CLM) system of record that enable sourcing coordinators to execute agreements consistently and help the business scale.
About the Role
As a Contract Management Lead, you will build, lead, and continuously improve OpenAI’s AI-led contracting help desk—a new capability designed to scale contract drafting, review, negotiation, and lifecycle management without significantly increasing headcount. You will own the service strategy, operating model, delivery oversight, coordinator enablement, workflow design, and performance tracking. Sourcing coordinators will manage day-to-day negotiations and agreement execution; you will ensure they have the tools, playbooks, training, guidance, and escalation support required to deliver timely, consistent, and well-governed outcomes.
This is a builder-operator and service-ownership role for someone who combines strong commercial contracting and legal-language fluency with a product-management mentality. You will be hands-on in building the systems, playbooks, AI-enabled workflows, and reporting that support the contracting desk—not in personally negotiating every agreement. You will use a contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform as the central system of record, connect it with procurement tools and contract repositories, and partner with Legal, Procurement, Engineering, sourcing coordinators, and CLM technology partners to pilot, evaluate, and improve emerging AI capabilities. Your work will turn contracting into a trusted, measurable, continuously improving service.
This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.
In this role, you will:
Own the product vision and roadmap for an AI-led contracting help desk, translating user needs into a scalable, measurable service for contract intake, triage, and lifecycle management.
Build and continuously improve the AI-enabled contracting framework, including agent-assisted drafting, clause and fallback recommendations, negotiation guidance, risk detection, and human-in-the-loop escalation.
Own the contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform and system of record, including workflows, approved templates and playbooks, metadata, reporting, and integrations with procurement tools and repositories.
Enable sourcing coordinators to lead day-to-day negotiations and agreement execution through effective training, clear ownership, service levels, and operational support.
Partner with Legal, Procurement, Engineering, Security, Privacy, and Finance to define approval guardrails, resolve escalations, and deploy AI responsibly.
Pilot emerging contract lifecycle management and AI capabilities; measure cycle time, automation, quality, coordinator delivery, and stakeholder adoption; and use those insights to improve the service.
You might thrive in this role if you:
Bring an AI-forward mindset, with experience building or deploying AI-enabled agents, automation, or decision-support workflows and a practical understanding of evaluation, human review, confidentiality, and operational safeguards.
Think and operate like a product manager: identify user needs, define a roadmap, prioritize workflows, launch pilots, and continuously improve the experience using data and feedback.
Bring strong commercial contracting and legal-language judgment; a JD, law degree, or comparable legal background is strongly preferred, but exceptional equivalent experience is welcome.
Have implemented or owned a contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform and can design templates, clause libraries, integrations, reporting, and scalable workflows.
Can build and run a service model that enables sourcing coordinators, clarifies ownership, tracks delivery, and escalates risk without personally owning every negotiation.
Build trusted cross-functional partnerships and bring structure, speed, and sound judgment to ambiguous, high-stakes operational problems.
