OpenAI's AI for Chips team is hiring a research engineer to apply its models to semiconductor engineering problems, mainly through reinforcement learning, tool use and evaluation. The work covers building RL environments and evaluations for tasks such as RTL generation, design verification and physical design optimization, running training, investigating failures, and turning successful experiments into reusable code. The posting asks for strong programming and debugging, applied ML research experience, and independent experimental judgment. Chip-design knowledge is helpful but not required; the team includes hardware specialists.
