About the job
We’re looking for a Demo Studio Lead to own the end-to-end demo experience for OpenAI’s major events, webinars, and strategic programs. This is a highly cross-functional role focused on translating cutting-edge AI capabilities into clear, compelling, and production-ready experiences. You will own the full demo portfolio for an event or initiative, spanning mainstage moments, breakout experiences, booths, and supporting content. You’ll define the narrative, architect workflows, build high-fidelity demo environments, direct presenters, and ensure flawless execution in live environments. This is not a traditional sales engineering, presentation, or narrowly scoped design role — it requires a combination of product thinking, technical fluency, storytelling, systems design, and operational excellence. A key part of the role is presenting the work directly: delivering live demonstrations to executive, technical, and industry audiences across mainstage, breakout, customer, and recorded settings.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end demo experience across OpenAI-hosted summits, webinars, third-party industry events, and strategic executive demonstrations.
- Translate approved product positioning, real OpenAI capabilities, and audience needs into compelling narratives, believable customer workflows, and clear takeaways.
- Personally build high-fidelity demo environments, working applications, and agent-driven workflows using ChatGPT Work, Codex, approved data, and connected tools.
- Personally present live demonstrations to executive, technical, and industry audiences, adapting the story and level of detail in real time.
- Lead technical and live-production readiness, including presenter rehearsals, capability validation, known limitations, troubleshooting, and recovery plans.
- Design cohesive experiences across keynotes, breakouts, demo theaters, booths, webinars, and attendee-facing activations.
Qualifications
Minimum
- 8+ years in technical product marketing and/or technical success roles
- Strong systems thinking and can design end-to-end workflows and experiences
- Technically fluent and comfortable working with APIs, AI systems, data, and modern development tools
- Experience building demos, prototypes, or customer-facing applications
- Strong storytelling instincts and can simplify complex technical concepts into compelling narratives
- Exceptional live presenters with executive presence, able to make complex technical work clear, credible, and compelling in both scripted and unscripted settings
