About the Team

The Applied Engineering team works across research, engineering, product, and design to bring OpenAI’s technology to consumers and businesses. 

You’ll join the team responsible for running the infrastructure that supports the models backing ChatGPT and the API. The systems we support include inference kubernetes clusters, GPU health, Infiniband performance, node lifecycle, and more.

We seek to learn from deployment and distribute the benefits of AI, while ensuring that this powerful tool is used responsibly and safely. Safety is more important to us than unfettered growth.

  • 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.

You might thrive in this role if you: 

  • Have 5+ years building core infrastructure 
  • Have experience running inference clusters at scale
  • Have experience operating orchestration systems such as Kubernetes at scale
  • Take pride in building and operating scalable, reliable, secure systems
  • Are comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change
