Software Engineer, Manufacturing InfrastructurePosted today$310K–$460K

The opportunity

OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops AI-native silicon and system-level solutions for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. Building on efforts like Jalapeño, the team is developing future generations of AI-native silicon and tightly integrated systems to power the next generation of frontier models.

What you'll do

  • Design, develop, and maintain the software infrastructure for manufacturing process execution and data export.

  • Own integration across internal customers and vendor systems and processes.

  • Build and maintain the CI, release, and delivery pipeline of tooling to external partners.

  • Build and maintain internal systems to ingest, process, deliver, and: visualize critical data for internal teams and systems.

  • Build system health monitoring, telemetry, remote diagnostics, and recovery: paths that make manufacturing failures traceable and actionable.

  • Develop automation frameworks and monitoring for board bring-up, rack: bring-up, qualification, manufacturing readiness, deployment readiness, and long-term reliability.

What they're looking for

  • Package engineering releases into manufacturing-ready software recipes: images, versions, logs, limits, remediation mapping, provisioning hooks, secure artifact handling, and traceable data export.
  • Debug complex production issues spanning hardware, firmware, kernel,: services, networking, power, thermals, boot, provisioning, manufacturing, test, and cloud services.
  • Partner with hardware, firmware, security, networking, infrastructure,: manufacturing, operations, and external engineering teams to define software contracts, unblock bring-up, and drive issues to closure.
  • Produce durable architecture notes, runbooks, validation records, and: decision documents that help OpenAI and partner teams reproduce, operate, and improve the platform.
