The opportunity
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.
What you'll do
Partner with researchers and creative teams to understand priorities, develop: original concepts, and define the visual direction for research stories, announcements, and demos; communicate ideas through treatments, mood boards, references, and design explorations
Translate complex research concepts, methods, and findings into clear,: compelling visual storytelling, choosing imagery, typography, composition, and motion that serve the idea and accurately represent the underlying work
Art direct and design across web, social, film, editorial, and experiences;: guide the look and feel through collaboration with filmmakers, designers, animators, illustrators, and other creative partners, providing clear briefs and feedback while staying hands-on with execution
Create prototypes and reusable visual systems that carry a creative idea: across formats; collaborate with researchers on narratives and demos, and explore visual approaches for film graphics, imagery, and environments that bring research capabilities to life
Carry visual direction from concept through delivery, reviewing work for: craft, consistency, and clarity; manage multiple creative requests with partners, align on priorities, and adapt to changing research goals and production timelines
+ years of experience in both art direction and graphic design, with a: portfolio demonstrating original concepts, a strong visual point of view, and high-quality execution; clearly show your role in shaping the direction and making the work
What they're looking for
- Can establish a compelling visual direction and develop it into cohesive: systems across formats, balancing consistency with the needs of each story and medium
- Bring strong hands-on craft in typography, layout, composition, color,: imagery, and information design, with an eye for how these elements work together in static and moving images
- Can turn an ambiguous brief into a clear creative approach, present and: explain your ideas, and guide execution as technical concepts and project needs evolve
- Have an experimental nature, a broad range of visual references, and the: ability to explore different approaches before refining the strongest idea
