OpenAI is seeking someone who is excited by massive global challenges spanning thousands of stakeholders; someone motivated by solving complex, interconnected problems. Specifically, the Infrastructure Strategy & Delivery team supporting Stargate is seeking an experienced and ambitious leader to join our team as a Site Delivery TPM. Delivering a data center is not easy. It requires a cross-functional understanding of commercial dependencies, build timelines, equipment material readiness, design specifics, commissioning timelines, and much more. Beyond the specifics, it requires the right mindset: to think around corners and de-risk problems before they happen. This role will focus on project delivery management, ensuring our data center/supercomputer projects are set up for success and delivered on-time and that strategic partners, including Oracle, meet contractual milestones for compute delivery. By establishing relationships, establishing critical timeline and commercial SLAs, and driving supplier performance across the data center industrial base, this role will sit at a critical point in OpenAI’s infrastructure, and organizational, strategy. Infrastructure is destiny, and you get to sit in the driver’s seat!
