Manager, Protection Scientist Engineer, Intelligence and Investigations

Protection Science Engineering is an interdisciplinary role mixing data science, machine learning, investigation, and policy/protocol development. As a manager of Protection Scientist Engineers, you will lead a small but growing team of PSEs who design and build systems to proactively identify and enforce on abuse on OpenAI’s products. This includes ensuring we have robust abuse monitoring in place for new products, sustaining monitoring for existing products, and prototyping and incubating systems of defense against our highest risk harms. The team also responds to and investigates critical escalations, especially those that are not caught by our existing safety systems. The team, and you, will leverage expert understanding of our products and data, and work cross-functionally with product, policy, and scaled engineering teams. This role is based in our San Francisco office and may involve resolving urgent escalations outside of normal work hours. Some investigations and work may involve sensitive content, including sexual, child safety, violent, or otherwise-disturbing material.
