Technical Investigator, Threat Intelligence
San Francisco, CA
About the Team
OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity. We believe that achieving our goal requires real world deployment and iteratively updating based on what we learn.
The Intelligence and Investigations team supports this by identifying and investigating misuses of our products – especially new types of abuse. This enables our partner teams to develop data-backed product policies and build scaled safety mitigations. Precisely understanding abuse allows us to safely enable users to build useful things with our products.
About the Role
As a technical investigator on the Intelligence and Investigations team, you will be responsible for detecting malicious uses of our platform (such as influence operations) on our platform and disrupting their activities. This will require expert understanding of our products and data, and experience investigating threat actors or influence operations. You will also respond to critical incidents, especially those that are not caught by our existing safety systems.
This role is based in our San Francisco office and includes participation in an on-call rotation that may involve resolving urgent incidents outside of normal work hours. Some investigations may involve sensitive content, including sexual, violent, or otherwise-disturbing material.
In this role, you will:
Develop abuse signals and tracking strategies to proactively detect bad actors on our platform
Investigate incidents and disrupt abusive operations in partnership with our policy, legal, and security teams
Develop a categorical understanding of our products and data, and work with engineering teams to improve our data and tooling
You might thrive in this role if you:
Have at least 4 years of experience with technical analysis or investigations, especially in SQL and Python
Have at least 2 years of experience tracking threat actors or influence operations
Have at least 2 years of experience developing innovative detection solutions and conducting open-ended research to solve real-world problems
Have experience with basic data engineering, such as building core tables or writing data pipelines (not expected to build infrastructure or write production code)
Have experience scaling and automating processes, especially with language models
