About the job
OpenAI is seeking an exceptional Technical Community Program Manager to help manage and scale a high-signal community of advanced ChatGPT Pro users. This is a hands-on, technically fluent role that sits at the intersection of community-building, product enablement, user research, product education, and editorial storytelling. You should be comfortable understanding technical workflows, asking sharp technical questions, using the latest AI tools, and helping advanced users explain what they are building. You will report to the Head of Pro Subscriber Community and will be based in New York City.
Responsibilities
- Manage and deepen engagement with the ChatGPT Pro cohort of advanced users across disciplines.
- Design and execute high-touch community programming, including product demos, office hours, show-and-tell sessions, peer-learning formats, and in-person events.
- Build repeatable systems for onboarding, engagement, retention, and member communications.
- Identify, recruit, and onboard new individuals doing high-impact work with ChatGPT and Codex.
- Conduct in-depth interviews and maintain ongoing relationships to understand user workflows, decision-making, and real-world applications.
- Act as a trusted point of contact between advanced users and OpenAI.
- Help advanced Pro users understand and operationalize new capabilities across ChatGPT, Codex, agents, and related products.
- Run technical office hours, workflow reviews, demos, and peer-learning sessions for users building complex systems.
- Partner with DevEx, Product, and Research to route technical questions, bugs, edge cases, and workflow feedback to the right teams.
- Translate between highly technical users, non-technical experts becoming builders, and internal teams trying to understand real-world usage.
- Curate and evaluate user chats and workflows for editorial publication, internal learning, and product feedback.
- Identify patterns across use cases and distill them into actionable insights, educational assets, and reusable examples.
- Produce user profiles and case studies.
- Contribute to editorial channels including Substack, social content, newsletters, and internal storytelling.
- Shape how advanced AI usage is presented to both internal teams and external audiences.
- Help organize and run small cohorts of Pro users to test new models and features.
- Work closely with users to document their experiments, successes, and friction points.
- Synthesize feedback clearly, distinguishing recurring patterns from isolated anecdotes.
- Identify new patterns in how advanced users are interacting with ChatGPT and Codex.
- Track shifts in workflows, prompting strategies, and tool adoption.
- Surface recommendations to relevant internal teams and help explain why emerging behaviors may matter at scale.
Requirements
- Exceptional curiosity about how people work and solve problems.
- Highly organized and able to build systems, manage competing priorities, and close loops reliably.
- Good taste, with an understanding of what is interesting, novel, and worth sharing.
- Strong technical fluency: ability to understand technical workflows, reason through product behavior, and communicate credibly with builders.
- Hands-on experience using AI tools for complex work, ideally including Codex, agents, APIs, automation, or technical prototyping.
- Ability to help users break down workflows, identify friction, document edge cases, and translate technical usage into clear product feedback.
- Strong writing and editing skills, especially for turning complex technical behavior into precise, accessible stories and examples.
