  • Collaborate across Legal and Global Affairs to develop policy positions.
  • Provide strategic analysis and advice to the Global Affairs team and other internal stakeholders.
  • Advise on evolving regulatory and industry standards affecting OpenAI's business and customers.

You might thrive in this role if you:
  • Have 5+ years of experience with a mix of in-house and technology-focused law firm roles.
  • Have a strong background in technology policy, with experience analyzing complex legislation.
  • Have experience and familiarity with AI or a demonstrated interest in AI laws and regulations.
  • Write clearly and concisely, distilling complex concepts into simple, explainable, and persuasive ideas.
  • Have experience engaging with regulators and/or policymakers.
