The opportunity
We’re hiring software engineers to make OpenAI’s Model Performance teams more productive. These teams work on the systems, tooling, and infrastructure that help improve model performance across OpenAI’s training and inference workloads at frontier scale.
What you'll do
Improve development workflows for engineers working on model performance infrastructure
Design and improve CI/CD, release, validation, and testing pipelines
Build and maintain tools that improve reliability, iteration speed, and engineering confidence
Partner closely with engineers to identify friction in testing, debugging,: deployment, and development workflows
Contribute to infrastructure efforts that support performance-critical training and inference systems
Help improve developer experience across Python-heavy codebases and performance-oriented infrastructure
What they're looking for
- Work in a high-context, ambiguous environment where ownership and good judgment matter
- You are motivated by enabling the people around you and helping engineers do their best work
- You have strong experience with CI/CD, developer infrastructure, testing: systems, tooling, or build/release workflows
- You are highly collaborative, empathetic, and comfortable partnering deeply with technical teams
