OpenAI Discloses H‑1B Base Salary Ranges

Federal H‑1B filings from Oct–Dec 2025 and prior quarters show OpenAI continues hiring internationally, onboarding over 60 overseas hires in that quarter and listing base salaries across more than 160 roles. Research scientist bases range $245,000–$685,000 and engineering roles reach mid-six figures; filings exclude stock awards and bonuses. The data indicates continued headcount growth despite the Trump administration's $100,000 H‑1B fee.
