About Our Team
Join OpenAI as we seek talented software engineers to enhance the productivity of our networking teams. These teams are responsible for designing and managing high-performance networking systems that underpin OpenAI's training and inference infrastructure at the cutting edge of technology.
About This Role
We are looking for a dedicated individual who is passionate about improving the developer experience for engineers working on intricate infrastructure systems, specifically focusing on build systems, testing architecture, release pipelines, and efficient development workflows.
This role is integral to OpenAI’s networking team, aimed at streamlining the processes for engineers to build, test, validate, and deploy changes in multi-server, networked, and hardware-adjacent environments.
Key Responsibilities:
- Enhance development workflows for engineers tasked with building and operating OpenAI’s networking systems.
- Design and refine continuous deployment, release, and validation pipelines.
- Develop and sustain test harnesses for multi-server, networked, and hardware-backed environments.
- Accelerate iteration speed across codebases in C++, Python, and build-system-centric environments.
- Collaborate with engineers to uncover and resolve friction points in CI, testing, debugging, and deployment workflows.
- Lead the testing and reliability strategy for infrastructure components that support extensive training and inference workloads.
- Work closely with centralized developer experience teams while remaining deeply integrated with networking engineers who are closest to the systems.
