The opportunity
The Applied Foundations team at OpenAI is dedicated to ensuring that our cutting-edge technology is not only revolutionary, but also secure from a myriad of adversarial threats. We strive to maintain the integrity of our platforms as they scale.
What you'll do
Design and build scaled foundational systems used in the detection, tracking,: and enforcement of harm using our technologies.
Work closely with and learn from technical and non-technical experts on harms: we are observing, and that stem from our platforms, to inform your designs and implementation.
Leverage OpenAI’s most advanced technologies to automate and augment our: abilities to detect and reason about complex harms quickly, accurately, and with minimum human intervention.
Collaborate with policy, trust and safety operations, legal, investigations,: and harm-specialised engineers and data scientists to holistically combat abusive actors and customers using OpenAI’s technology.
Stay abreast of the latest techniques and tools to stay several steps ahead: of determined and well resourced adversaries.
Have at least 5 years of software engineering experience in backend and data systems.
What they're looking for
- Have at least 2 years experience in trust and safety analysis, investigation, and/or operations.
- Are excited to learn from top experts in the world on harms committed with: AI, and to collaborate in an interdisciplinary team including technical and non-technical roles to combat these harms.
- Can dive into our codebase, intuit how it works, and be able to have a strong: intuition for suggestions that will lead us to a stronger engineering position.
- Have a voracious and intrinsic desire to learn and fill in missing skills. An: equally strong talent for sharing that information clearly and concisely with others
