About the Team The Synthetic RL team develops reinforcement learning methods that leverage synthetic data, environments, and feedback to train and evaluate frontier AI models. The team explores approaches such as self-play, simulators, and other synthetic evaluations to push model capability, generalization, and alignment beyond what is possible with the current prevailing methodology. About the Role As a Research Scientist on the Synthetic RL team, you will develop novel reinforcement learning techniques that use synthetic environments and feedback to improve large-scale models. You’ll work closely with other researchers to design experiments, analyze learning dynamics, and translate research insights into training approaches used in production systems. We’re looking for researchers who enjoy working on open-ended problems, value fast iteration, and want their work to directly shape how frontier models are trained. This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a...

About the Team The Consumer Products Research team is an Applied Research team focused on developing new methods and models to support our vision for the future of computing as we advance forward in our mission of building AGI that benefits all of humanity. About the Role As a Research Engineer/Scientist on the Consumer Products Research team, you will work together with both the best ML researchers in the world and the greatest design talent of our generation to push the frontier of model capabilities. This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We follow a hybrid model with 4 days a week in the office and offer relocation assistance to new employees. In this role you will: Train and evaluate multimodal SoTA models along axis that are important to our vision for future devices. Develop novel architectures that improve model performance when scaling the models themselves is not an option. Run through the necessary walls to take nascent research capabilities and turn them...

About the Role This role focuses on building the strategic unit economics understanding of OpenAI, guiding sustainable growth to make it the most impactful company of our generation and beyond. You will lead the development of foundational causal inference and data science models and frameworks to predict and quantify the drivers of customer lifetime value (LTV), translating deep data insights into strategic decisions and growth levers. The role requires both technical depth and executive-level communication. This position is based in our San Francisco HQ with a hybrid work model (three days in office per week). Relocation assistance is available. The Vision Build causal inference and predictive analytics capabilities to measure and forecast LTV across customer segments (B2C and B2B), and quantify the incremental impact of different actions or product features on customer LTV. Design customer "happy paths" by identifying adoption journeys that maximize lifetime value while...
