The opportunity
The legal industry team works with law firms, in-house legal departments, legal technology companies, and other members of the legal ecosystem to understand how AI can support serious professional work. The team collaborates across Product, Research, Engineering, Design,…
What you'll do
Turn customer, partner, market, and model evidence into a clear product: strategy and roadmap for OpenAI’s work with the legal industry—including what to build, what not to build, and where ecosystem partners should lead.
Define requirements and take products from early concept through real-world use and iteration.
Lead execution across Research, Engineering, Design, Safety, Security, FDE,: Go-to-Market, and Partnerships—resolving ambiguity, surfacing tradeoffs, inspecting outputs, and closing the detailed loops required to ship trustworthy products.
Have personally built and shipped zero-to-one enterprise, developer, or AI: products, and stay close to users, product behavior, and the unglamorous details that determine whether something actually works.
Combine strong product judgment with technical curiosity: you can reason from model and evaluation evidence, distinguish model, data, workflow, trust, and delivery problems, and change direction when the facts change.
Earn credibility with demanding practitioners and partners, collaborate with: low ego across teams you do not manage, and bring clarity, pace, and calm to complex, fast-moving work. Legal or regulated-industry experience is helpful, but a J.D. is not required.
