Jared Long leads Recruiting Operations at OpenAI, where he builds the systems, processes, and data strategies that keep hiring both scalable and human. His career has taken him through some unique chapters—joining Netflix at a pivotal moment as they bet big on original content, teaming up with the unhinged owl at Duolingo, and dabbling in startups along the way. Those experiences shaped his belief that recruiting is equal parts craft, strategy, and storytelling.

A continuous learner, Jared is always looking for ways to evolve in an ever-changing world, experimenting with how AI and technology can reshape the recruiting experience. When he’s not deep in RecOps, you’d probably find him building products, sketching out ideas for the next tool, or thinking about how to make work feel a little more future-ready.
