Applied Data Science & Machine Learning Leader - Global Forecasting

We’re looking for a hands-on technical leader to build and lead a small but mighty team of applied data scientists and ML engineers to develop forecasting capabilities and platforms from the ground up. Your team will be responsible for building and scaling robust, interpretable, and production-ready forecasting systems. These models will power critical business decisions by predicting core metrics such as DAU/WAU, revenue, compute consumption, and profitability. You will work closely with Strategic Finance leaders to integrate these scalable forecasting capabilities into their operational rhythms and collaborate with the Growth team to forecast key KPIs. This is a highly cross-functional role that requires technical excellence, strong product intuition, and business acumen. You’ll collaborate with various partners to operationalize forecasting insights, influence company-wide strategy, and build foundational forecasting capabilities at OpenAI.
