Greg Brockman, co-founder and president, is now assuming a more direct management role to stabilize operations as the company pivots toward repeatable, business-focused execution. Rajic brings experience from Wiz, which Google acquired for $32 billion earlier this year.

OpenAI Taps Wiz Executive Dali Rajic as CRO Amid Leadership Shuffle
Dali Rajic, the former president and chief operating officer at Wiz, is stepping into the chief revenue officer role at OpenAI. His appointment follows the departure of Denise Dresser after a nine-month tenure and signals a pivot toward aggressive commercial scaling as the lab refines its enterprise deployment strategy.
While OpenAI boasts over one billion weekly active users and two million business clients, internal and public commentary suggests the firm has struggled to meet its ambitious revenue targets. The company is reportedly preparing for a public market debut, having filed confidentially with the SEC. However, a recent $7 billion tender offer—allowing employees to cash out equity—hints that an IPO may not be imminent. CEO Sam Altman has increasingly prioritized enterprise adoption, moving to prune experimental projects that do not align with the company's core commercial focus.
