Engineering Manager, Core Experimentation

Details

The Statsig team within OpenAI builds experimentation, feature rollout, dynamic configuration, and analytics systems that help OpenAI ship products with speed, safety, and evidence. Teams across ChatGPT, Codex, model measurement, consumer monetization, business subscriptions, developer products, and shared infrastructure rely on Statsig to introduce capabilities safely, measure impact, and roll changes forward or back with confidence.

About the Role

OpenAI is seeking an Engineering Manager, Statsig Product, to lead the product engineering organization responsible for Statsig's post-acquisition journey at OpenAI. The role will define how experimentation, rollout, configuration, and analytics become a simple, reliable, and trusted part of how OpenAI product teams ship.

The role involves setting strategy across multiple product and platform workstreams, building the organization and leadership structure for the next phase, and establishing the operating model for a platform that serves teams across the company. The successful candidate will operate across product strategy, technical architecture, organizational design, developer experience, reliability, and executive alignment while integrating Statsig into OpenAI's product development system.

Responsibilities

• Build, lead, and scale a high-performing product engineering organization, including managers, senior technical leaders, and product-platform engineers.
• Define the multi-year product engineering strategy for experimentation, feature flags, dynamic configuration, rollout safety, and analytics.
• Establish clear ownership, operating mechanisms, planning processes, and execution standards across Statsig product workstreams.
• Partner with leaders across ChatGPT, Codex, model measurement, ads, subscriptions, developer products, research, data, and infrastructure.
• Translate recurring launch, measurement, and experimentation needs into durable platform capabilities for the broader company.
• Guide technical direction across frontend, backend, SDK, data, analytics, and infrastructure surfaces.
• Balance rapid adoption with reliability, performance, correctness, usability, and safety.
• Serve as a senior escalation point for complex product-platform tradeoffs, integration decisions, and cross-company prioritization.
• Build a strong leadership bench and create an organization that can scale as Statsig becomes core infrastructure for OpenAI product development.

Requirements

• Substantial engineering leadership experience, including leading managers or multiple engineering teams.
• Experience building or scaling product, experimentation, analytics, developer tools, growth platform, or internal platform organizations.
• Strong product sense and the ability to turn ambiguous customer workflows into durable platform strategy.
• Ability to set direction across multiple workstreams while giving teams clear ownership and autonomy.
• Track record of building strong leadership teams, hiring senior talent, and developing managers.
• Ability to operate credibly with senior product, engineering, research, data, and infrastructure leaders.
• Understanding of how to balance product quality, developer experience, reliability, performance, and adoption.
• Comfort leading through high ambiguity, organizational change, and post-acquisition integration.

Success In This Role

• A strong Statsig Product Engineering organization is built with clear leadership, ownership, priorities, and execution mechanisms.
• Statsig has a coherent product and engineering strategy serving teams across OpenAI.
• Product teams can launch progressively, measure clearly, and make faster, higher-confidence decisions.
• The platform becomes more reliable, easier to use, and more valuable as adoption scales.
• Senior cross-functional partners trust the organization to turn company-wide needs into reusable platform capabilities.
• Statsig becomes a core part of how OpenAI ships safely, learns quickly, and improves products at scale.
