Job Description

The Human Data team at OpenAI is responsible for identifying and mitigating risks in advanced AI systems by designing evaluations, surfacing vulnerabilities, and collaborating closely with researchers to strengthen model reliability and public trust. As a Technical Program Manager, you will lead initiatives that test the safety and robustness of OpenAI’s models through creative experimentation and structured evaluation. You’ll coordinate efforts across research and engineering teams to transform ambiguous risks into concrete research programs and influence future model development and deployment.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead programs that explore unexpected model behaviors and identify failure modes
  • Translate vague or emergent risk signals into clear priorities and actionable research plans
  • Design and run creative evaluations, experiments, and red-teaming campaigns
  • Collaborate with research, product, and deployment teams to integrate findings into model training and deployment cycles
  • Develop repeatable systems for tracking model performance and understanding emerging behavior patterns

Requirements

  • Strong experience in technical program management
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills
  • Familiarity with large language models, prompt engineering, or model evaluation techniques
  • Comfortable managing fast-paced, high-uncertainty projects and shaping them from the ground up
  • Creative and resourceful in devising new methods for testing model behavior and performance
  • Ability to effectively coordinate across technical and non-technical stakeholders to drive alignment and execution

What we offer

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family, with employer contributions to Health Savings Accounts
  • Pre-tax accounts for Health FSA, Dependent Care FSA, and commuter expenses (parking and transit)
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer match
  • Paid parental leave (up to 24 weeks for birth parents and 20 weeks for non-birthing parents), plus paid medical and caregiver leave (up to 8 weeks)
  • Paid time off: flexible PTO for exempt employees and up to 15 days annually for non-exempt employees
  • 13+ paid company holidays, and multiple paid coordinated company office closures throughout the year for focus and recharge, plus paid sick or safe time (1 hour per 30 hours worked, or more, as required by applicable state or local law)
  • Mental health and wellness support
  • Employer-paid basic life and disability coverage
  • Annual learning and development stipend to fuel your professional growth
  • Daily meals in our offices, and meal delivery credits as eligible
  • Relocation support for eligible employees
  • Additional taxable fringe benefits, such as charitable donation matching and wellness stipends

  • Partner with Applied Science researchers to translate cutting-edge evaluation research into production systems: adaptive testing (IRT), agent-centric co-evolution, adversarial benchmarking, and telemetry-driven benchmark generation
  • Lead the deprecation of saturated benchmarks and design their next-generation replacements — including procedurally-generated code evaluations that can't be memorized and adaptive testing systems that skip trivial questions for frontier models
  • Build GitHub's community benchmark submission program — enabling external researchers, enterprises, and open-source developers to contribute domain-specific evaluations — and publish GitHub's first external benchmark transparency reports showing how models perform on real developer workflows
  • Design and operationalize multi-tier evaluation frameworks — from fast automated regression suites and LLM-as-judge systems, through expert human evaluation, to production A/B testing — so teams can iterate in hours, not weeks
  • Design feedback-to-benchmark pipelines that convert thumbs-down signals, user frustrations, and support tickets into candidate regression tests — systematizing informal practices into scalable, automated systems
  • Establish evaluation as a first-class discipline across GitHub Copilot — creating the rituals, dashboards, and communication cadences that make evaluation results accessible and actionable for every team
