About the team Hardware Procurement Operations enables OpenAI’s hardware and infrastructure businesses to execute supplier engagements and purchases at speed while maintaining financial discipline, clear ownership, and effective controls. Our work spans procurement execution, process and systems enablement, and lifecycle governance—from initial requests and agreements through purchasing, payment, and closeout, with related asset and inventory governance. We build practical operating models, resolve cross-functional barriers, and improve the tools and processes that help teams scale. About the role You will own procurement execution for complex infrastructure deals, including land transactions, lease agreements, power purchase agreements, and fast-moving colocation and fiber engagements. Scope may expand to cloud service provider (CSP) engagements and sourcing activities as business needs evolve. This senior individual contributor role combines hands-on lifecycle management with commercial judgment and building scalable operations. You will recognize gaps in proposed supplier engagements, work with business owners, sourcing, Legal, and Finance to improve them, and translate agreements into executable purchasing and payment plans. You will also build standard processes and automation that help teams move faster while reducing deal risk. In this role, you will: - Drive assigned engagements from intake and agreement execution through purchasing, ongoing obligations, amendments, renewals, final payments, and closeout. - Assess commercial and operational readiness, identify gaps in scope, deliverables, acceptance criteria, and payment terms, and drive resolution with the appropriate partners. - Resolve commercial, financial, and operational dependencies, aligning owners on required reviews and approvals. Represent procurement operations in deal planning and senior stakeholder escalations, presenting clear recommendations on commercial readiness, risks, and execution tradeoffs while respecting each function’s decision authority. - Maintain accurate obligation and purchasing records; coordinate payment readiness, acceptance evidence, invoice exceptions, and reconciliation with business owners, Treasury, Accounting, and Accounts Payable. - Establish procurement operating standards and influence business, sourcing, Legal, and Finance partners to adopt practices that improve supplier engagement quality, accelerate execution, and reduce risk.
