About the role

Data Scientist role focused on Real Estate & Workplace (REW) at OpenAI, delivering AI-native analytics to inform space, services, and investments decisions, and owning end-to-end analytical delivery and decision tools.

Responsibilities

  • Own ambiguous, high-impact problems end to end—from framing and prioritization through delivery, adoption, and iteration.
  • Define success metrics and build measurement, forecasting, experimentation, and optimization frameworks for decisions about people, spaces, and investments.
  • Develop and own agentic dashboards, reporting, models, and decision tools, ensuring they are trusted, governed, and agent-ready.
  • Connect data from workplace sensors, collaboration tools, operations, and financial systems—while identifying and integrating novel data sources—to guide decisions about space, services, employee experience, and investments.
  • Communicate assumptions, trade-offs, and recommendations clearly to technical, operational, and executive stakeholders.

Qualifications

  • Ability to thrive in ambiguity, take ownership, and balance rigor with speed.
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted analytics, collaboration technologies, and operational platforms.
  • Experience in Data Science or Decision Science, ideally in operational, financial, workplace, or internal-tools environments.
  • Strong grounding in applied statistics, causal inference, forecasting, and model evaluation; fluent in SQL and Python.
  • Proven ability to turn messy, broad datasets into high-impact decisions and measurable outcomes.
  • Enthusiasm for pioneering AI-native analytics and working with agentic dashboards and decision systems.
  • Exceptional communication skills across operators, engineers, cross-functional partners, and senior leaders.
