Engineering Manager, Library

About the team The ChatGPT Library team is building the persistence layer that helps people and organizations collaborate with increasingly capable AI systems. ChatGPT Library provides users with a durable place for their files, context, and creations, forming a substrate between humans and agents—a foundation for AI that can remember, retrieve, and act on the right context over time. The team sits within the Personalization organization and partners closely with product, design, research, model, and infrastructure teams. Its work helps models become a useful second brain for individuals—for example, answering questions such as “What did I work on last week?”—and supports enterprise use cases that turn company knowledge into accessible, actionable context.
