Full Job Description
About the role

OpenAI is hiring a Deployed PM to help our customers get maximally deployed on our products. This person is the product counterpart to Deployment Engineers: someone who can spot product expansion opportunities inside an account, build trust with technical and executive stakeholders, drive cross-functional execution, and turn blockers into momentum. The role sits at the intersection of product, technical deployment, and customer strategy.

In this role, you will
  • Act as the product lead inside strategic customer accounts, helping customers adopt and expand their use of OpenAI products.
  • Identify opportunities for deeper deployment, new integrations, and broader product usage across teams and workflows.
  • Build trusted relationships with technical stakeholders, engineering leaders, and executives, including representing product vision to C-level audiences.
  • Partner closely with Deployment Engineers and GTM teams to drive successful implementations and long-term account growth.
  • Translate customer needs and technical blockers into clear product feedback and execution paths for internal teams.
  • Work hands-on with integrations, MCPs, tooling, and lightweight technical workflows when needed to unblock an account.
  • Own lightweight PM work needed to support enterprise deployment, then hand off the right insights and opportunities to core product teams.


You might thrive in this role if
  • You've operated in highly ambiguous environments and are comfortable being the connective tissue between customers, engineering, GTM, and product.
  • You are highly credible with technical audiences and can work effectively with CTOs, senior engineers, and developer experience teams.
  • You are also excellent with stakeholders: polished in presentations, strong in customer conversations, and trusted in executive settings.
  • You can understand a customer's goals, translate them into a deployment strategy, and drive follow-through across multiple teams.
  • You are builder-minded and willing to get hands-on when needed.
  • You likely have a background as a technical founder, product founder, technical PM, solutions or product lead, or in another role that combines technical depth with product judgment and customer-facing execution.


What we're looking for
  • Strong technical fluency and comfort working directly with engineers.
  • Strong product instincts, especially around identifying customer needs and translating them into product opportunities.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
  • Ability to present product strategy and deployment vision clearly to senior customer audiences.
  • Comfort operating across strategy, execution, and hands-on problem solving.
  • Bias toward action, ownership, and unblocking.
