  • Use our latest AI tools to re-think how we can be the most productive team in the industry.

  • Work closely with various teams within OpenAI to understand their workflows,: challenges, and needs, and ensure the tools and systems built by the Engineering Acceleration team address these requirements.

  • Bring new features and research capabilities to the world by partnering with: product engineers to lay the necessary technical foundations.

  • Guide and advise product engineering teams on best practices for ensuring observable, scalable systems.

  • 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.

What they're looking for

  • Have 5+ years of experience in engineering, including 3+ years of experience: in infrastructure building tooling for developers.
  • Have experience-driven empathy for the tools, frustrations, and processes: that slow engineering teams down and lead to toil or burnout.
