Engineering Manager, Answer Experience

OpenAI
San Francisco, CA

About the Team

The Answer Experience team is reimagining how people access information and get answers to all their questions in ChatGPT. Working across research, engineering, product, and design, we’re building experiences that seamlessly bring together intelligence, real-time information, and rich, interactive visual content. No matter what question a user comes to ChatGPT with, this team makes sure they get the perfect experience.

About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced engineering leader to grow and guide our Answer Experience team.

In this role, you will:

  • Hire and manage a diverse, high-performing engineering team

  • Collaborate with teams across research, product, design, and engineering to enable step-change improvements to how ChatGPT answers look and feel

  • Coach engineers to maximize their impact and growth

  • Create an inclusive culture that makes all feel welcome while enabling radical candor and the challenging of groupthink

You might thrive in this role if you:

  • Have 10+ years of experience in engineering, including 5+ years of experience in engineering management

  • Have a passion for building and evolving delightful, essential product experiences

  • Are comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change, and eager to get deep into the weeds to help solve problems

  • Have a strong track record of coaching engineers to achieve their peak potential

  • Feel a voracious and intrinsic desire to learn and fill in missing skills—and an equally strong talent for sharing learnings clearly and concisely with others

  • Have experience attracting and hiring top talent for highly competitive technical roles, and can effectively communicate a vision that resonates with candidates

This role is exclusively based in our San Francisco HQ. We offer relocation assistance to new employees.
