We engage deeply with commercial, technical, strategic, and operational facets, liaising with teams and executives both within and outside of OpenAI.

About the Role:

We are seeking a dynamic Technical Program Manager who thrives on tackling substantial global challenges with a broad array of stakeholders. This role is integral to the Infrastructure Strategy & Delivery team supporting Stargate, focusing on coordinating datacenter deployments in collaboration with external development and operations teams.

By fostering relationships, establishing critical timelines, and enhancing supplier performance, you will be at the forefront of OpenAI’s infrastructure and organizational strategy. Infrastructure is destiny, and you will be in the driver's seat!

Your Responsibilities:

  • Lead partner performance to meet essential commercial SLAs, construction timelines, and deployment commitments.

  • Act as the primary liaison with external partners for contract alignment, risk management, and high-level reporting.

  • Identify and mitigate risks to datacenter deployments by recognizing critical path items and addressing blockers proactively.

  • Cultivate relationships with internal and external stakeholders, ensuring effective communication and prompt decision-making.
