About the Team The Data Acquisition team within Foundations at OpenAI is responsible for all aspects of data collection to support model training. We build and operate large-scale crawling infrastructure, source and structure external datasets, and work with research, product, and partnerships to ensure OpenAI has the data needed to build and deploy frontier AI systems. We are a small, high-performing team that thrives in ambiguity. We combine technical fluency, operational rigor, and strategic thinking to move quickly on mission-critical initiatives. Team members bring structure to complex problems, align stakeholders, and drive execution across the organization. About the Role We are hiring a Business Operations Manager to lead data operations and acquisition programs. In this role, you will partner closely with research, product, and business teams to identify data needs, source and evaluate data opportunities, and ensure that high-quality data is efficiently delivered...

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 Program The OpenAI Residency is a six-month program designed to identify, mentor, and develop exceptional individuals with the potential to make outsized contributions to frontier AI research. Residents join OpenAI as full-time employees, embedding within Research teams to work on cutting-edge problems under the mentorship of senior researchers and engineers. Our goal is to build a talent discovery engine, finding people whose learning velocity, originality, and technical creativity signal the potential to become future leaders in AI research and development. We're open to a wide range of backgrounds from self-taught engineers and independent builders to researchers in fields like mathematics, physics, or neuroscience. OpenAI has long been home to unconventional talent, and the Residency is our way of continuing that tradition. If you're obsessed with AI, think deeply about how to build or understand intelligence, and have a history of creating or achieving...
