Senior Producer, Global Events
OpenAI•San Francisco, CA
fulltime
Marketing
10+ years
About The Team OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity.
The Global Events team is a dynamic and ethos-driven group dedicated to crafting one-of-a-kind and extraordinary experiences that encompass OpenAI’s values and mission. Our team is driven by a deep passion for shining the spotlight on others and bringing people together to connect in meaningful ways. We turn complex ideas into experiences that thousands of people can see, feel, and remember.
We move fast, experiment often, and care deeply about craft. The details matter here — the pacing of a keynote, the moment a demo lands, the way a room feels when something important is revealed.
If you love the magic of live production and the puzzle of making complicated things look effortless, you’ll feel at home here.
About The Role We’re looking for an exceptional Senior Event Producer to join the Global Events team at OpenAI — someone who thrives in the controlled chaos of live production and knows how to turn ambitious ideas into beautifully executed experiences.
In this role, you’ll help bring some of OpenAI’s most visible moments to life — including our annual flagship conference, OpenAI DevDay. You will also work on other large- and medium-scale events ranging from global launches, product-driven experiences, enterprise events, and entirely new formats we haven’t invented yet. You’ll partner closely with teams across product, marketing, research, and communications to translate big ideas into real-world productions that feel seamless, thoughtful, and distinctly OpenAI.
As a Senior Producer, you’ll own the full production lifecycle — shaping concepts, building plans, managing vendors and partners, running timelines, and ensuring every detail lands with precision. This role sits at the intersection of creativity and operational excellence: equal parts builder, problem-solver, and calm presence when the stakes are high.
Our team takes pride in craft, notices the small things others miss, and moves fast without sacrificing quality. The ideal candidate brings strong experience in live production, stage management, or agency-side event production, along with a curiosity about AI and how it will shape the way people gather, learn, and connect.
This role is based in San Francisco, CA, with a hybrid schedule (three days per week in office). Relocation support is available. Regular travel is expected (~30%).
