OpenAI is hiring a software engineer for developer productivity, embedded in its networking team. The work is to speed up and de-risk how those engineers build, test, validate and ship changes to networking systems that back training and inference. Tasks include CI/CD and release pipelines, test harnesses for multi-server and hardware-backed environments, and iteration speed in C++ and Python. The posting asks for CI/CD, testing or build-system experience (CMake, Bazel, Blaze); networking expertise is not required. The role sits with networking engineers and works with centralized developer experience teams.
