About The Team Marketing Innovation is a product engineering team embedded within OpenAI’s broader Demand Gen and Marketing organization. The team builds agentic, AI‑native systems that directly drive revenue, pipeline, and marketing leverage.
Our mandate is to own and scale autonomous, customer‑facing and internal systems that operate at massive scale. This includes building autonomous, customer‑facing systems that engage with prospects, generate pipeline and revenue, and shape the future of how marketing and revenue teams operate in an AI‑native world.
We focus on problems that exceed the limits of low‑code tools and long‑tail workflow automation. When a problem requires a native product experience, deep system integration, and high standards for precision, safety, and reliability, Marketing Innovation steps in.
About The Role We’re looking for product‑minded software engineers to join the Marketing Innovation team.
As a Software Engineer on this team, you will build and own autonomous, customer‑facing agentic systems that interface directly with enterprise customers, prospects, and revenue‑critical workflows. You will partner closely with functional leaders across scaled revenue, demand gen, and marketing to understand desired outcomes, then translate those needs into production‑grade systems.
You will move quickly from ambiguous problem statements to working software in production. Your work will be measured not by output, but by impact: revenue, enterprise pipeline, and Marketing efficiency.
This role is ideal for engineers who want ownership over real systems, enjoy building 0->1 products, and are excited to define new categories of AI‑native products and workflows.
