Policy Enforcement Specialist, Scaled Enforcement
About the Team
The Applied AI Team’s purpose is to commercialize OpenAI’s technology in a manner that leads to broadly beneficial Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) - in particular, by gaining practical experience in deploying these technologies safely. Within Applied AI, Trust and Safety’s mission is to define acceptable uses of OpenAI’s technology; establish detection and response systems to ensure that technology is not used in unsafe ways and to advance the set of use-cases that OpenAI can safely permit.
In 2020, we introduced GPT-3 as the first technology on the OpenAI API, allowing developers to integrate its ability to understand and generate natural language into their product. In 2021, we launched Copilot, powered by Codex, in partnership with GitHub, a new product that can translate natural language to code. In April 2022, we introduced DALL-E 2, AI that creates images from text, and in November 2022 we introduced ChatGPT.
About the Role
As a Policy Enforcement Specialist on the Trust and Safety team, you will be a subject matter expert across all our use case and content policies. As part of the Scaled Enforcement subteam, you will help build automated moderation solutions to mitigate abuse of OpenAI’s technologies. You will develop deep expertise on the application of OpenAI’s policies in the context of AI-generated content, provide expert-level guidance on the policy-compliance, and work on creating and scaling review processes.
This is an operations role based in our San Francisco office and involves working with sensitive content, including sexual, violent, or otherwise-disturbing material.

- Review content and organizations that violate our policies, and improve our review and response processes
- Ensure our moderation operations are running smoothly and scale those processes without trading off review quality
- Respond to escalations by owning or assisting in investigations and follow-on processes
- Investigate signals and help assess ecosystem risk
- Collaborate with engineering, policy, and research teams to improve our tooling, policies and understanding of abusive content
You might thrive in this role if you:
- Have a pragmatic approach to being on an operations team and can get in the weeds to get stuff done
- Are passionate about AI and are keen to take a part in shaping the safety of this technology
- Have experience on a trust and safety team and/or have worked closely with policy, content moderation, or security teams
- Can identify and drive areas of continuous improvement
- Have a knack for data and use metrics to drive your decision making
- Bonus if you have experience with large language models and/or can use scripting languages (Python preferred)
