About the Team

We bring OpenAI's technology to the world through products like ChatGPT and the OpenAI API.

We seek to learn from deployment and distribute the benefits of AI, while ensuring that this powerful tool is used responsibly and safely. Safety is more important to us than unfettered growth.

About the Role

As OpenAI scales, we’re looking for experienced, problem-solving engineers to build new products and scale our systems. Our success depends on our ability to quickly iterate on products while also ensuring that they are performant and reliable.

You’ll work in a deeply iterative, collaborative, fast-paced environment to bring our technology to millions of users around the world, and ensure it’s delivered with safety and reliability in mind. 

 In this role, you will:

• Design and build the development and production platforms that power ChatGPT, enabling reliability and security at scale

• Partner with researchers, engineers, product managers, and designers to bring new features and research capabilities to the world

• Accelerate engineering productivity by empowering your fellow engineers with excellent tooling and systems

• Help create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture that makes all feel welcome while enabling radical candor and the challenging of group think

• Like all other teams, we are responsible for the reliability of the systems we build. This includes an on-call rotation to respond to critical incidents as needed

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have meaningful experience with building (and rebuilding) production systems to deliver new product capabilities and to handle increasing scale

• Care deeply about the end user experience and take pride in building products to solve customer needs

• Have a humble attitude, an eagerness to help your colleagues, and a desire to do whatever it takes to make the team succeed

• Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done

• Build tools to accelerate your own (and your teammates’) workflows, but only when off-the-shelf solutions won’t do

• Have been a startup founder or an early-stage engineer
