OpenAI About The Team

The Finance Platform & Technology team at OpenAI builds and scales the future-proof systems and data architecture that power our core financial operations. We enable business agility, compliance, and operational excellence across quote-to-cash, procure-to-pay, inventory, and asset management for both B2B and B2C. Our focus is on modernizing workflows through strategic integrations, scalable automation, and seamless data flows—empowering smarter decisions, reliable reporting, and sustainable growth as OpenAI evolves. About The Role

As a Business Systems SME for Procure‑to‑Pay (P2P), you will help develop end‑to‑end product strategy, roadmap, and day‑to‑day operations for direct procurement on Oracle Fusion Cloud. You’ll partner with Procurement, Finance, Supply Chain, Legal, and Security to deliver a reliable, compliant, and scalable intake‑to‑pay experience. This spans sourcing, supplier onboarding, purchasing, receiving, invoicing, and payments. You’ll bring hands‑on Oracle Fusion Procurement expertise (Purchasing, Supplier Portal, Sourcing, Self‑Service Procurement, Receiving, AP), a deep understanding of direct materials procurement and inventory flows, and real ownership of business outcomes (cycle time, touchless rate, first‑pass match, spend control, compliance). This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees. In This Role, You Will

Assist in defining the vision, KPIs, and roadmap for P2P across Oracle Fusion and adjacent tools. Ship improvements continuously by designing, configuring, testing, and launching Fusion changes (approvals, DFFs, catalogs, sourcing events, receiving, 3‑way match, invoicing, payments) with clear success criteria and rollback plans. Make direct procurement work at scale by enabling BOM/MRP‑driven demand, blanket agreements, ASN/receipts, and supplier collaboration to support manufacturing and inventory accuracy. Drive supplier master governance, category/contract alignment, tax and compliance rules, and strong controls (segregation of duties, auditability, approvals). Lead integrations via OIC/Workato and REST APIs with intake (e.g., Zip/Coupa/Ariba), CLM (e.g., Ironclad), inventory/warehouse, AP automation/e‑invoicing, tax (e.g., Vertex/Avalara), and analytics. Identify and translate business requirements into builds. Triage defects, unblock month‑end/quarter‑end issues, and own root‑cause analysis for matching, posting, and payment failures. Instrument dashboards for cycle time, touchless rate, PO/receipt/invoice exceptions, and supplier performance; use data to drive backlog decisions. Lead UAT, training, change management, and release communications to enable the broader organization. Align Procurement, Accounting/AP, Supply Chain, IT, and Security, and other vendors to keep projects on time and in scope. You Might Thrive In This Role If You Have

6+ years in ERP/P2P product, functional, or consulting roles. 4+ years experience with Oracle Fusion Procurement (Purchasing, Supplier Portal, Sourcing, SSP, Receiving) and 2+ full‑cycle Fusion implementations. Proven delivery in direct procurement (materials, inventory, receiving, 3‑way match) and understanding of upstream planning signals (BOM/MRP) and downstream AP/payment flows. Strong configuration skills in Fusion (approvals, rules, catalogs, Blanket Purchase Agreements/Contract Purchase Agreements, tolerances, receiving parameters), plus comfort reading data models and writing SQL for analysis. Integration experience with OIC/Workato and Fusion REST APIs; familiarity with intake (Zip/Coupa/Ariba), CLM (Ironclad), AP automation/e‑invoicing, and tax engines (Vertex/Avalara). Mastery of process mapping, gap analysis, and requirements artifacts (scope docs, use cases, functional specs, test scripts) and the discipline to run Agile ceremonies with clear acceptance criteria. A controls and compliance mindset, while not slowing delivery. Crisp communication and a track record of driving consensus and holding teams accountable to outcomes and dates. A bias for action and a practical approach to automation (including AI/agents) where it measurably cuts cycle time or errors. Bachelor’s or Master’s in Information Systems, Supply Chain, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience). About OpenAI
