About the Role
The AI Success Engineer role is the primary post-sales point of contact for OpenAI’s most important customers. You are responsible for driving account health and adoption, ensuring technical readiness, identifying new use cases, and delivering measurable value to our customers with OpenAI’s ambitiously growing platform.
This role blends technical depth, program management, customer advisory, and product influence. You will partner deeply with customer teams, map workflows, lead configuration, oversee deployment plans, and guide customers toward high impact use cases that showcase the full value of our platform.
You will work closely with Sales, Solutions Architecture, Product, and Research to ensure the customer experience is connected and successful across every touchpoint.

- Act as a trusted advisor on deployment health, adoption strategy, and value realization for ChatGPT, API, Codex, and related capabilities
- Use logs, telemetry, usage patterns, and customer feedback to diagnose issues, form hypotheses, and guide practical recommendations on latency, reliability, model choice, prompting, cost efficiency, and rollout readiness
- Lead targeted interventions for moments that matter - launches, risk signals, escalations, renewal preparation, and high-potential expansion opportunities
- Translate customer goals into prioritized adoption plans, success milestones, and measurable KPIs that can be executed through a mix of direct engagement, scaled programs, and cross-functional support
- Conduct technical enablement and configuration guidance, balancing 1:many education and repeatable playbooks with selective 1:1 engagement when the customer moment warrants it
- Identify repeatable use cases, barriers, and adoption patterns across customers, and convert those insights into scaled guidance, interventions, and customer value narratives
