OpenAI's platform team is hiring a software engineer to build the infrastructure behind ChatGPT and the API, products the posting says are used by hundreds of millions of people. The work covers distributed systems, developer tooling and reliability infrastructure at massive scale. The posting names no languages, frameworks or years of experience; it describes the team and the systems rather than a checklist of requirements. The role is hybrid in San Francisco, full-time, with a stated salary of 200,000 to 300,000 USD.
