From the employer's listing (short excerpt)
About the Team
The Physical Engineering team sits within OpenAI’s Enterprise Verticals organization. We’re exploring how frontier AI can help people design, simulate, and build better physical products - shortening development cycles, improving product performance, and expanding what engineering teams can accomplish.
We’re building experiences within ChatGPT and integrations with tools such as CAD, eCAD, CAE, and simulation software to support engineers from early concepts through design, validation, and preparation for production.
We operate as a small founding team, working directly with customers and closely with research, product, data science, and forward-deployed engineering. We learn by building, putting products in users’ hands, and using their feedback to guide what comes next.
About the Role
We’re looking for a highly autonomous Product Designer to become the first dedicated designer on the Physical Engineering team. You’ll help define this product area from its earliest stages - shaping what we build, how it works, and how design operates within the team.
This is a hands-on, zero-to-one role for someone with a founder’s mindset.
