OpenAI's robotics team is hiring a senior software engineer to keep its ML training framework and infrastructure healthy. The role is hands-on: reviewing and improving code across training frameworks, catching risky changes before they land, debugging failures across training systems, GPUs, clusters and networking, and unblocking researchers whose training jobs break. The posting asks for strong software engineering fundamentals, quick reading of unfamiliar codebases, and experience with ML or distributed systems. It is based in San Francisco, in office five days a week, and mentions reviewing messy or AI-generated code.
