Partner Applied AI Engineer, Oracle and Cloud ISV at OpenAI · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

We are looking for an experienced technical leader to work with partner architects, AI specialists, and sales teams across three distinct routes to market. You will lead technical work from joint account discovery and architecture through evaluation and production, alongside OpenAI account teams and partner sellers. You will help customers choose the right deployment and purchasing path for the workload, with clear ownership of security, billing, support, and operations.
Strategic partner engagement and influence
Build relationships with Oracle, Snowflake, and Databricks field leaders and technical teams. Shape joint account plans, identify the customer problem each partner can help solve, and prioritize opportunities with a clear path to production and reuse.
Oracle Cloud: Work with Oracle sellers on eligible, sales-managed Oracle Marketplace private offers for OpenAI API models, ChatGPT Work, and Codex. Distinguish procurement, billing, and eligible commitment drawdown from OpenAI-managed product access, inference, and support. Where customers build on OCI, design the application and data integration without assuming the model is hosted on OCI.
Snowflake: Work with Snowflake account and technical teams to qualify data and AI workloads where OpenAI models in Snowflake Cortex AI are a fit. Help customers evaluate use cases such as AI functions over governed data, search, analytics, and agents. Confirm model and regional availability, data boundaries, and operating requirements. Distinguish Snowflake-metered Cortex usage from a customer application that calls OpenAI directly.
Databricks: Work with Databricks sellers and solution architects on three joint plays: developer workflows with Codex and Unity AI Gateway, enterprise insights with ChatGPT and Genie where supported, and GPT-powered applications and agents with Mosaic AI Model Serving, Agent Bricks, and Databricks Apps. Validate each route against the customer’s governance and deployment requirements. Distinguish Databricks-billed usage from direct OpenAI billing and confirm commercial eligibility and attribution before making commitments.
Complex deal leadership and execution
Lead technical discovery, architecture, prototyping, evaluation, and production readiness. Agree with both account teams on what the customer will deploy, how success will be verified, and who owns the next step.
Validate model and feature availability, identity and network boundaries, data handling and residency, capacity, metering, and support ownership. Work with Alliances, Sales, and Billing Ops on technical readiness without taking ownership of pricing, terms, offer acceptance, or billing approvals.
Solution architecture and hands-on building
Build reference implementations with OpenAI APIs and partner-native capabilities, such as OCI application and data services, Snowflake Cortex AI, and Databricks Mosaic AI Model Serving. Use the appropriate integration path for the workload and validate permissions and data movement before deployment.
Put evaluation, observability, and deployment practices in place to measure quality, safety, reliability, latency, cost, and real workload usage.
