HR Business Partner

About this Team The HR Business Partner (HRBP) team at OpenAI partners with leaders to navigate complex organizational and talent decisions where the right path is not always obvious. We are building a higher-leverage HRBP model: staying close enough to the business to understand its realities, while focusing our time on the work that requires judgment, influence, context, and leadership partnership. This role is for an HRBP who can diagnose ambiguous situations, translate business strategy into organizational and talent decisions, coach leaders through consequential choices, and help build the operating rhythms that enable scale. While the role spans both strategic and operational work, the bar is not to be helpful on everything. The bar is to improve decision quality, strengthen leadership capability, and increase organizational effectiveness. We operate with urgency, empathy, and sound judgment. We value sincerity, intellectual honesty, and collaboration over ego, and focus relentlessly on creating meaningful impact. About this Role This role is part of a shared hiring pathway for HRBPs at OpenAI. Instead of hiring directly for a single team, we evaluate candidates holistically first, then identify the best fit across our organization as you advance. This approach ensures alignment between your skills, interests, and where our needs are greatest—whether that’s partnering wit
