OpenAI
About The Team
The Human Data team turns human feedback into reliable signals for training and evaluation. We design and run end-to-end programs that capture the depth of human intent behind everyday and high‑stakes uses of our models. Our remit spans bespoke data campaigns, scalable synthetic data generation, and product‑embedded signals. We partner closely across all research teams to translate these signals into training datasets, novel evaluations, and feedback loops that push the frontier of our models and advance their applications. About The Role
As a Program Manager (PGM) in the Human Data team you will partner with research, operations, and engineering to execute complex programs for collecting high‑quality data. You will be the key interface between our external vendors and AI trainers, ensuring human data campaigns are successfully completed. Your work will play a key role in enabling OpenAI to train safe models that will land in the real world. This role is based in our San Francisco HQ. In This Role, You Will
Work in a high-velocity environment, where the outcome of your work will directly impact the models that OpenAI deploys in the real world. Collaborate closely with external vendors, trainers, and internal researchers to collect, review, and deliver high‑quality data. Gather requirements, write instructions, define success criteria, and calibrate the AI trainers. Use internal tooling to assess labeled data and provide feedback to AI trainers. Think critically and share recommendations on tooling and process improvements, optimizing for quality, throughput, and the AI trainer experience. You’ll Thrive In This Role If
You thrive in dynamic environments, are comfortable navigating ambiguity, managing shifting priorities, and adapting to fast‑paced changes without missing a beat. You’re curious about AI, LLMs, and agents. While not required, an interest or background in these areas helps you connect the dots in our broader mission. You have a can‑do attitude and don’t shy away from rolling up your sleeves to tackle both high‑visibility tasks and the “grunt work.” You’re an excellent communicator who loves bringing people together, fostering collaboration, and providing clarity in complex situations. Your empathetic approach helps you understand different perspectives and build strong, trusting relationships. You are resilient and flexible; setbacks don’t rattles you. You bounce back quickly, adjust strategies as needed, and maintain a positive, solution‑oriented mindset. You’re super organized amid chaos, keeping track of details, managing competing demands, and bringing structure to complexity. You enjoy operational work and find satisfaction in executing tasks efficiently and effectively. You have a knack for data, going beyond basic annotation to hands‑on experience with data analytics, using insights to inform decisions and improve processes. You’re energized by start‑up environments, enjoying the hustle, resourcefulness, and rapid iteration typical of startups. You have some relevant experience. Ideally, you have at least 1‑2 years of relevant experience and are eager to grow within a role that challenges and develops your skills. About OpenAI
