About the Team We’re incubating brand‑new lines of business inside ChatGPT for Work. If you love 0→1 building, shipping quickly, and owning large product surface area, this is a chance to help define how organizations capture and use their knowledge—turning messy, living information into fresh organizational memory, smarter retrieval, and first‑party ChatGPT experiences that feel native at work.
About the Role You’ll join a small, hands‑on team (full‑stack + backend) that operates with minimal process and a tight feedback loop with real customers from day one. You’ll work closely with product, design, and research to take ideas from exploration to production—owning outcomes end‑to‑end.
This role is based in Seattle, WA. 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
Co‑create the “rubric” for how org knowledge is captured, linked, evaluated, and applied in product flows.
Build graph‑backed, real‑time systems that stay fresh by default (streaming + incremental updates).
Ship enterprise‑grade, first‑party ChatGPT for Work features end‑to‑end (prototype → launch → iterate).
Make pragmatic architecture choices that balance speed, reliability, and privacy/security for enterprise users.
Wear the founder hat: define scope, set milestones, measure impact—own outcomes, not tickets.
You Might Thrive in This Role If You
5+ years of product engineering experience building and shipping user‑facing features end‑to‑end.
Strength in modern web stacks (e.g., TypeScript/JavaScript, React) and at least one backend language (we use Python).
Experience with relational databases (e.g., Postgres/MySQL) and comfort optimizing for speed and scale.
Product intuition: you talk to users, prioritize signal over noise, and iterate quickly.
Ability to thrive with ambiguity and move fast in a high‑impact, high‑ownership environment.
Knowledge graphs, embeddings/retrieval, vector stores, or near‑real‑time data pipelines.
Building secure, compliant enterprise features (authN/Z, data governance, auditability).
Observability and performance tuning across the stack.

We push the boundaries of the capabilities of AI systems and seek to safely deploy them to the world through our products.

In addition, job duties require access to secure and protected information technology systems and related data security obligations.
