The Intelligence and Investigations team seeks to rapidly identify and mitigate abuse and strategic risks to ensure a safe online ecosystem. We are dedicated to identifying emerging abuse trends, analyzing risks, and working with our internal and external partners to implement effective mitigation strategies to protect against misuse. Our efforts contribute to OpenAI's overarching goal of developing AI that benefits humanity.
The Strategic Intelligence & Analysis (SIA) team provides safety intelligence for OpenAI’s products by monitoring, analyzing, and forecasting real-world abuse, geopolitical risks, and strategic threats.
What you'd do
- Discover and define new quantitative risk signals where no established metrics exist, using subject matter expertise to surface early, weak, or unconventional indicators
- Translate complex trust and safety challenges into measurable signals that can be tracked and stress-tested over time
- Develop upstream early-warning and signal frameworks that inform downstream detection and mitigation efforts
- Analyze risk trends to assess the underlying drivers and causal factors behind those changes
- Conduct data mining and statistical modeling to understand how risks originate, evolve, and propagate across systems
- Design adversarial scenarios, and quantitative stress tests to assess exposure, coverage gaps, and vulnerabilities
- Produce clear data-driven briefs to support risk prioritization, contingency planning, and strategic risk products across teams
- Have 3+ years of experience in quantitative intelligence analysis, trust & safety, security analysis, or risk-focused research
- Are comfortable working on complex trust and safety domains such as child safety, violent activities, self-harm, or similar high-stakes risk areas
- Familiarity with data mining, statistical modeling, and supervised learning methods
