Careers

OpenAI for Gov - Washington, DC

The Adoption, Innovation, and Transformation team within OpenAI for Government helps government organizations turn OpenAI products into durable capabilities and measurable mission impact.

We work alongside public servants to move from initial exploration to confident, responsible, organization-wide use of AI. Our work combines hands‑on enablement, adoption strategy, deployment support, community, content, and practical transformation tailored to government missions and operating environments.

By translating the potential of OpenAI’s technology into better individual workflows, stronger teams, and improved public services, we help government customers deepen adoption, build lasting organizational capability, and spend more time on mission.

We are seeking a Cyber Enablement Lead to join the AIT team and help government cyber professionals turn Daybreak’s capabilities into stronger defenses and measurable mission outcomes. This is a priority hire, and we are looking for someone who can join as soon as possible.

You will own Daybreak’s product enablement strategy and personally design, execute, and lead the training that brings it to life. Your work will span audience research, curriculum design, script writing, recorded demonstrations and courses, hands‑on workshops, executive briefings, and our cyber councils. You will work with both domestic and international customers.

You will work with Authorizing Officials (AOs), CISOs, cyber operators, developers, and senior executives, adapting the depth and format to each audience. Practitioners need practical proficiency; executives need a strategic understanding of our cyber products, their value, and their implications for mission and risk. Success means demonstrated capability, sustained adoption, and better cyber outcomes.

This role is based in Washington, D.C. We use a hybrid work model of three days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees. Travel and regular work from government customer sites are required.

• Own the end‑to‑end Daybreak enablement strategy: identify audience needs, define learning objectives, build curricula, deliver programs, and measure operational impact.

• Serve as an in‑house Cyber expert, represent Daybreak capabilities to customer and non‑customer audiences.

• Personally lead technical training, live demonstrations, workshops, and conversations with Government Leaders, AOs, CISOs, cyber operators, developers, and other related groups.

• You will provide critical product feedback from users using our cyber products and will serve as a POC for both Daybreak Blue and Red.

• Write scripts and record product demos and training. Create interactive labs, digital courses, videos, facilitator materials, and practical playbooks that make complex capabilities accessible and immediately useful.

• Host and facilitate our cyber councils, creating engaging discussions, drawing out questions, and helping participants learn from one another.

• Build bespoke, hands‑on engagements for small specialist teams and scalable learning programs that reach thousands of practitioners.

• Connect Daybreak’s capabilities, applications, and deployment requirements to real government cyber workflows across the cybersecurity lifecycle.

• Partner closely with product, security, deployment, and customer teams to keep enablement technically accurate, responsive to feedback, and current as products and requirements evolve.

• Assess demonstrated proficiency, track adoption and sustained use, and improve programs based on learning evidence and measurable cyber and mission outcomes.
