New Chief Recruiter Joaquin Guillenoeiro Candela shared his perspective on the current situation of OpenAI on the social platform LinkedIn.
He pointed out that rapid innovation in the field of artificial intelligence has made companies face intense talent competition, and the importance of recruitment work has never been so high. Candela vividly compared OpenAI to a rocket, emphasizing that it is currently at the "Maximum Dynamic Pressure" (MaxQ) stage, meaning that in a rapidly developing environment, the company must quickly adapt and grow.

Candela previously served as the Preparation Manager. He mentioned that companies increasingly rely on industry leaders like OpenAI when seeking new talent acquisition methods and improving productivity. To realize its vision for artificial intelligence, OpenAI is fiercely competing with other rivals in hiring engineers and developers. For example, Meta Platforms recently announced an investment of over $14 billion in the startup Scale AI, which also brought the company's CEO, Alexander Wang, to join Meta.
In this competitive context, OpenAI is also actively expanding its team. Last month, the company appointed Fidji Simo, the CEO of Instacart, as the head of application business, and CEO Sam Altman stated that this appointment aims to help the company scale during its next phase of growth. Additionally, OpenAI acquired an artificial intelligence hardware startup founded by Apple designer Jony Ive for $6.4 billion.
Since a year ago, OpenAI has also hired Sarah Friar, who previously served as the CEO of Nextdoor and the CFO of Square, as the CFO. Meanwhile, competitors in the industry such as Google and Amazon are also expanding their AI teams and products. Candela said his goal is to help build an excellent employee team that is highly aligned with the company's mission, ensuring that the company can maintain close ties with the values of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) while growing rapidly.
Candela concluded that in the past two and a half years, OpenAI has nearly grown tenfold, showing its significant position in this challenging and opportunity-rich industry.
