• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including product, research, design, and engineering, to integrate personalization features into the broader ChatGPT product.
• Foster a culture of experimentation and rigor within your team, while ensuring an ethical use of user data.
• Work across research, product, design, and engineering to bring new research breakthroughs to production.
• Ensure projects are on track, your team is utilized effectively, and core engineering  and research needs are continuously addressed.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have experience building and leading  engineering teams in a fast-paced environment, with a specialization in AI, machine learning, or similar topics
• Care deeply about diversity, equity, and inclusion, and have a track record of building inclusive teams
• Take pride in building delightful, high quality research and product experiences
• Have a strong track record of coaching others to achieve their peak potential
• Are comfortable with ambiguity and rapidly changing conditions. You view changes as an opportunity to add structure and order when necessary
