About the Team OpenAI's Frontier Evals team designs and builds evaluations that measure the capabilities, limitations, and emerging behaviors of our most advanced models. As a research team, we advance both the science and infrastructure of model evaluation, developing methods, systems, and datasets that help us understand where frontier models succeed, where they fail, and what those results imply for future development and deployment. About the Role As a Technical Program Manager on Frontier Evals, you will drive high-priority evaluation and research programs from concept through design, execution, and analysis. This is a hybrid IC and program management role: you will help design evals, build lightweight technical workflows, manage human data campaigns, create project roadmaps, track execution, and coordinate across researchers, engineers, data teams, vendors, and domain experts. You should be comfortable ramping quickly on unfamiliar topics, turning open-ended research...

About the Team Our Robotics team is focused on unlocking general-purpose robotics and pushing towards AGI-level intelligence in dynamic, real-world settings. Working across the entire model stack, we integrate cutting-edge hardware and software to explore a broad range of robotic form factors. We strive to seamlessly blend high-level AI capabilities with the constraints of physical systems to improve peoples' lives. About the Role We are hiring a Simulation Realism Engineer to drive our effort to make simulation quantitatively real for robotics research and product development. This role owns the strategy, tooling and operational practice that close sim→real gaps across physics, sensors and rendering. You will work cross-functionally with research, software, hardware and ops to discover the highest-impact realism gaps, define measurable realism metrics, and deliver engineering solutions - from tuning engine parameters and asset standards to integrating third-party engines and...

About the Team Safety Systems manages the complete lifecycle of safety efforts for OpenAI's frontier models, ensuring our models are deployed responsibly and have a positive impact on society. Our work spans diverse research and engineering initiatives-from system-level safeguards and model training to evaluation and red-teaming-all aimed at mitigating misuse, misalignment, and maintaining our high bar for safety. We lead OpenAI's commitment to developing and deploying safe Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), fostering a culture of trust, responsibility, and transparency. Our goal is to continuously learn from deployments, distribute AI's benefits widely, and ensure that powerful tools remain aligned with human values and safety considerations. About the Role We are hiring a Product Manager to focus on cybersecurity risk. In this role, you will drive initiatives which ensure that OpenAI's frontier model deployments are safe, impactful, and aligned with user needs and...

About the Team The Alignment Science team at OpenAI studies the science of intent alignment: how to train models to understand what users are actually asking for, act faithfully on that intent while respecting safety constraints, verify what they did, and report their limitations honestly. Our work sits alongside broader value alignment efforts, but this team focuses on scalable methods for ensuring instruction-following, honesty, and robustness as models become more capable. We work on both sides of alignment research: producing externally publishable results and integrating promising techniques into the models OpenAI deploys. Recent team research on model confessions studies how models can be trained to honestly report shortcomings after their original answer, including failures involving hallucination, instruction following, scheming, and reward hacking. That work reflects a broader agenda: build scalable and general methods to ensure models follow human intent. The team...
