OpenAI /tag/openai/ Denise Dresser joined OpenAI in December 2025 to help the nerdy frontier lab learn how to sell AI to the enterprise. Less than nine months later, she's moving on, the second major executive to leave OpenAI just this week. Dali Rajic is the new chief revenue officer at OpenAI, the company announced in a blog post Thursday https://openai.com/index/dali-rajic-chief-revenue-officer/?ref=thestack.technology . He was most recently president and chief operating officer of Wiz, the security company acquired by Google last year, and prior to that held enterprise sales leadership roles at Zscaler and AppDynamics.
