OpenAI's Robotics team is hiring an engineer to build the data infrastructure behind large-scale multimodal training and evaluation. The work covers distributed compute, data orchestration, distributed storage and streaming, with the goal of keeping pipelines reliable as they scale by orders of magnitude. Candidates need strong distributed-systems and software engineering experience, detail-oriented habits, and comfort with ambiguity. The role sits in San Francisco on a hybrid schedule of three days a week, with relocation assistance for new employees.
