About OpenAI
OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity. We build models and products that help people learn, create, and solve problems — and we work to do so safely and responsibly.
About the team
Our products are talked about by people, not just press and pundits. More than 900 million people use our tools each week, learning from one other and passing along what works. Their stories shape our reputation and encourage others to try our products.
Our community team builds direct relationships with people who use our tech. We channel their insights to our product and research teams and then amplify their stories and use cases so peers can learn from them.
About the role
We are seeking an exceptional community lead to uncover how domain experts — from farmers to scientists — use ChatGPT and other OpenAI products in their work, and turn what you learn into product insight and useful stories for others.
You will build trusted relationships with these advanced users in your region, help them test upcoming products and models, and bring what you learn to OpenAI’s product, research, community, and storytelling teams.
The work combines community-building, qualitative research, and editorial judgment. What success looks like: You will have built a repeatable sourcing engine that consistently identifies diverse, high-signal users, earns their trust, documents their work, and turns the strongest use cases into compelling stories.
Stories this team has helped share include:
A mathematician solves previously unsolvable math problems
A broccoli farmer runs his farm with ChatGPT
A family running a cereal business from their dining room with ChatGPT
An astrophysicist creates black hole simulations with Codex
A pro race car driver shares her chats
A pro cross-country skier shares his chats
You'll join a team of people doing similar work across the world. This role is based in Seoul and requires frequent travel, including to OpenAI offices.
What you’ll do
Find and support exceptional users: Build and manage a regional pipeline of advanced users working with OpenAI products in sophisticated, creative, or high-impact ways, looking beyond obvious influencers to earn trust across professions and cultures and maintain relationships over time.
Turn advanced use into insight and stories: Interview users and, with their consent, review chats, artifacts, or demonstrations to understand workflows, outcomes, and limitations; translate the strongest examples into clear internal profiles and evidence-based recommendations, then partner with community and storytelling teams to develop selected stories.
Build a connected community: Create opportunities for advanced users to learn from one another, identify recurring product-education needs and adoption patterns, and share regional signals that strengthen the global program.
What we’re looking for
Exceptional curiosity about people, work, technology, and how new practices emerge
Strong sourcing instincts and the resourcefulness to find high-signal people before they are widely known
Excellent relationship-building skills and the ability to earn trust across different professions, seniority levels, and cultural contexts
Strong interviewing, research, writing, and synthesis skills
Editorial taste and clear judgment about what is genuinely interesting, important, credible, and worth sharing
Fluency with AI products and enough technical confidence to understand and document sophisticated workflows accurately
High agency and comfort operating independently in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment
Strong organization and reliable follow-through across a large pipeline of relationships and opportunities
Excellent judgment around privacy, consent, confidentiality, and sensitive user context
Deep familiarity with the culture, professional networks, and language of the region you will cover
Professional fluency in English and in the primary language or languages needed for your market
The ideal candidate
The strongest candidates may come from community-building, journalism, qualitative research, talent scouting, partnerships, creator or developer relations, user research, editorial work, or technology ecosystems. The specific background matters less than the combination of curiosity, taste, persistence, judgment, and the ability to build genuine relationships with exceptional people.
You should be someone who enjoys finding signals before it is obvious, can move comfortably between a technical workflow and a human story, and can explain why a particular person or use case deserves attention.
