OpenAI named Dali Rajic as its chief revenue officer on Tuesday, ending Denise Dresser’s brief tenure that began nine months ago. Rajic arrives from Wiz, where he served as president and chief operating officer before the company was bought by Google for $32 billion in the tech giant’s largest‑ever acquisition.
Greg Brockman, OpenAI’s co‑founder and president, said in a blog post that Dresser “led our revenue organization through a formative period” and that Rajic will “turn what we’ve learned into repeatable execution as we build out the full system to make AI broadly useful for people and businesses.” The announcement came as part of a broader leadership overhaul that has seen the departures of chief operating officer Brad Lightcap and Fidji Simo, the head of AGI deployment.
Since Simo’s exit, Brockman has taken a larger role in day‑to‑day management. The reshuffle aligns with CEO Sam Altman’s recent emphasis on enterprise deployment and a tighter focus on revenue‑generating projects, as opposed to experimental research that he described as “distracting.”
SEC filing and IPO outlook
OpenAI disclosed that it has filed a confidential registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a step typically taken ahead of a public offering. The timing of any IPO remains unclear. The company also completed a $7 billion tender offer for employee shares this week, allowing staff to cash in part of their equity compensation. Some analysts view the tender as a possible signal that the firm is preparing for a market debut, though others note it could indicate a pause in the offering timeline.
OpenAI reports that its products reach more than one billion weekly active users and serve two million businesses worldwide. Despite that scale, internal sources have said the firm has not yet met all of its revenue targets. The new CRO’s mandate, according to Brockman, is to embed “relentless focus” on measurable business impact across the organization.
Industry observers will watch how Rajic’s experience at Wiz and Google informs OpenAI’s go‑to‑market strategy, especially as the company seeks to translate its powerful models into repeatable enterprise solutions. The leadership changes, SEC filing, and ongoing share buyback together suggest OpenAI is positioning itself for a significant next phase, whether that means a public listing or a deeper push into the corporate AI market.
