About OpenAI

OpenAI is an AI research and deployment company dedicated to ensuring that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity. AI is an extremely powerful tool that must be created with safety and human needs at its core. OpenAI is dedicated to putting that alignment of interests first - ahead of profit.

To achieve our mission, we must encompass and value the many different perspectives, voices, and experiences that form the full spectrum of humanity. Our investment in diversity, equity, and inclusion is ongoing, executed through a wide range of initiatives, and championed and supported by leadership.

At OpenAI, we believe artificial intelligence has the potential to help people solve immense global challenges, and we want the upside of AI to be widely shared. Join us in shaping the future of technology.

In pursuit of this mission, we seek a full-cycle recruiter to join our People Operations team to help us find and close leading talent across our scientific research, engineering, business, and policy teams. People are OpenAI's most powerful resource, and recruiters have an outsized impact by bringing top talent to our organization.

Our ideal team member is a problem-solver, a people-connector, and a relationship-builder with a background of success in scaling teams thoughtfully. You'll develop, iterate on, and own recruiting systems and processes from end-to-end; source, pitch, screen, and close candidates; and partner closely with hiring managers across the organization. You'll also lead and contribute to people-focused, cross-functional work in learning and development, diversity, equity, and inclusion, community building, and more.

Your responsibilities:

* Source top talent for high-impact roles for OpenAI through a variety of creative channels
* Partner with hiring managers to build and improve recruiting processes and develop sourcing strategies for each of your roles
* Act as the main touchpoint for your candidates from source to close
* Ensure a positive end-to-end interview experience for all candidates
* Equally prioritize speed and care when responding to candidates
* Represent OpenAI and engage with candidates at conferences and events
* Effectively lead and contribute to cross-functional projects

You might thrive in this role if you:

* Are deeply interested in technology and artificial intelligence, and their potential for positive impact on humanity
* Are passionate about building and growing relationships
* Connect and relate to a wide range of people, personalities, and values
* Care deeply about building a diverse recruiting pipeline and inclusive work environment
* Have a track record of balancing multiple open roles with ease
* Learn quickly and thrive in a constantly evolving environment with shifting priorities

We're looking to fill a number of roles on the team and are open to varying levels of experience in our applicants. Ideal candidates will have experience in both technical recruiting for research or engineering roles and in full-cycle recruiting from source to close.

Benefits and Perks

* Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family
* Mental health and wellness support
* 401(k) plan with 4% matching
* Unlimited time off and 18+ company holidays per year
* Paid parental leave (20 weeks) and family-planning support
* Annual learning & development stipend ($1,500 per year)
