Senior Manager, Financial Reporting 
Openai · San Francisco

**About the Team**

OpenAI Finance ensures the organization’s financial integrity and scalability in pursuit of our mission. Our Financial Reporting team is central to delivering accurate, timely, and GAAP-compliant financial information to internal and external stakeholders. We focus on building robust, scalable reporting systems and processes to support rapid organizational growth and complexity.

**About the Role**

OpenAI is hiring a Senior Manager, Financial Reporting to help build and run a best-in-class financial reporting engine in a technically complex, rapidly evolving, and high-growth environment. We are looking for a seasoned external reporting professional who pairs strong technical judgment with a roll-up-your-sleeves mindset - owning key reporting deliverables, driving rigorous tie-outs and disclosure quality, and converting ambiguity into audit-ready output. This role will collaborate closely with teams across Accounting, FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Investor Relations to improve reporting processes, streamline data flows, and elevate how financial information is communicated across stakeholders.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.

**In this role, you will:**

- Modernize reporting workflows through AI integration — Leverage ChatGPT, Codex, and proprietary AI tools to minimize manual effort and accelerate deep analysis, while maintaining the rigorous judgment and accountability required for high-quality, audit-ready outputs.
- Own end-to-end financial statements and disclosures — Prepare GAAP financial statements, footnotes, and supporting schedules; maintain rollforwards, tie-outs, and internal consistency checks to ensure outputs are complete and audit-ready.
- Drive audit readiness and execution— Partner with external auditors to manage day-to-day audit workflow (PBC coordination, support quality, issue resolution) and keep reporting on track with minimal rework.
- Lead disciplined close-to-reporting tie-outs — Ensure reporting outputs reconcile to source records, variances are understood/documented, and key schedules are accurate, well-supported, and repeatable each cycle.
- Partner cross-functionally to deliver high-quality reporting — Collaborate with Accounting, FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Investor Relations to align inputs, resolve questions quickly, and streamline end-to-end reporting processes and data flows.
- Translate complexity into clear narratives — Turn technical accounting conclusions, analyses, and audit feedback into crisp disclosures, memos, and leadership-ready summaries with strong written and verbal communication.
- Improve scalability and reduce manual effort — Identify and implement process improvements, standard templates, and control points to simplify workflows, increase automation where possible, and raise the overall quality bar as the company grows.

**You might thrive in this role if you have:**

- 10+ years of progressive accounting experience (including 4+ in external reporting), with a strong track record owning GAAP financial statements/disclosures in dynamic and high-growth environments (Big 4 and public company experience preferred).
- Hands-on experience with financial reporting and ERP systems (e.g., Workiva, Oracle), demonstrating the ability to automate and integrate data for accurate reporting.
- Strong track record
