Content Studio Lead

About the Team OpenAI didn’t begin as a traditional company. It began as an idea: that artificial intelligence could be developed in a way that benefits everyone. As a creative team, our role is to help make sure the work behind that idea is understood, as it leaves the lab and meets the world. This company works at the frontier of intelligence. Like any frontier, it’s unfinished, constantly shifting, and still being explored. Our job is to stay close to that uncertainty and help shape how this story gets told, in a way that feels grounded and human. We do this through campaigns, launches, films, brand systems, and work that doesn’t fit neatly into any of those categories yet. This team is for people who want to help shape something from the beginning. This team is for people who are energized by ambiguity, intellectually curious, and excited to build something enduring from the beginning.

We’re looking for someone who can move fluidly between hands-on content creation and creative systems thinking.

Partner with creative leads to prioritize requests and set the creative ambition and craft needs for each opportunity. Work with Production to make shared decisions on scope, budget, tradeoffs, and how to bring the work to life.

You might thrive in this role if you: Have 10+ years of building or significantly scaling a content, production, editorial, or studio capability.

Are an accomplished content maker with strong editorial judgment and a portfolio spanning multiple formats and channels.

Can personally develop and create high-priority content with leaders, researchers, customers, and external partners, from concept through delivery.
