Here’s a summary of the role: Build software that matters, take real technical ownership, and use modern AI tooling to do your best work. This is a hands-on senior engineering role for someone who enjoys solving complex product problems, shaping robust solutions, and helping teams deliver reliable services at scale. You’ll work on secure, scalable microservices and APIs using TypeScript, AWS, and modern engineering practices. You’ll play a leading role within a collaborative product engineering team, owning complex features end to end, contributing to design and architectural decisions, supporting production systems, and helping raise the bar across backend, cloud, and AI-assisted development workflows. Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll do, not all of it, just the important stuff: Own and deliver complex backend services and APIs using Node.js, TypeScript, and AWS , from technical design through release and production support. Contribute to design and architecture discussions, making pragmatic decisions that balance delivery speed, maintainability, scalability, and security. Mentor and support less experienced engineers through code reviews, pairing, technical guidance, and day-to-day collaboration. Work closely with product managers, designers, and engineers across the team to turn requirements into practical, reliable solutions. Use AI tools to accelerate coding, debugging, testing, research, and documentation, while validating outputs carefully and applying sound judgment. Strengthen service reliability, observability, and engineering quality by improving monitoring, incident response, testing, and development practices. These are the essentials you’ll need to get an interview: 5 to 8 years of professional software engineering experience delivering production systems in an agile environment.

About the Team OpenAI’s Applied AI Engineering team helps organizations turn frontier AI capabilities into safe, reliable, and high-impact production systems. We work with customer executives, product and engineering teams, security leaders, and transformation teams to identify valuable opportunities, accelerate technical implementation, and scale what works. Enterprise deployments are defined by complexity rather than any one industry: existing architectures, diverse data environments, security and governance requirements, multiple stakeholder groups, and organization-wide change. We turn lessons from these deployments into better products and reusable patterns for customers everywhere. About the Role As an Applied AI Engineer you will partner directly with leading organizations to design, build, and deploy AI systems that deliver measurable business outcomes. You will combine deep technical judgment, hands-on engineering, and customer leadership to take ambitious ideas from use-case selection and architecture through prototyping, evaluation, production launch, and scale. You will write and debug code, build evaluation systems, resolve complex integrations, and guide decisions involving model behavior, reliability, latency, cost, safety, security, governance, and operational readiness. Success is measured by production systems, sustained adoption, and meaningful customer impact—not simply activity or successful demonstrations. This is a rare opportunity to work on consequential real-world deployments at the frontier of AI while directly influencing how OpenAI’s products evolve. This role is based in London. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees In this role, you will: Partner directly with enterprise customers to identify high-value opportunities and translate them into technical architectures, implementation plans, evaluation strategies, and measurable success criteria. Design, build, and deplo
We're looking for an ML Data & Platform Engineer to own the infrastructure that powers our speech AI models: the pipelines that source and prepare training data, and the platform that trains, evaluates, and serves them in production. Speech AI has a data problem most ML teams don't, and you'll be at the centre of solving it, working as part of our ML team to remove friction across the entire lifecycle and get better models into production faster. This is a broad, cross-functional role suited to someone who enjoys working across the full stack: data infrastructure, distributed systems, and production ML, and who takes ownership of problems end to end rather than waiting to be told what to fix. What you'll do Designing, building, and maintaining scalable data pipelines for ingesting, transforming, validating, and storing large datasets used to train our models Developing and maintaining web scraping and data acquisition solutions to keep training datasets fresh, high-quality, and available at scale Building and operating the infrastructure that lets the ML team deploy and evaluate new models quickly, and that serves models efficiently and reliably in production Optimising infrastructure for both iteration speed and production reliability, including GPU utilisation, job scheduling, and training efficiency Implementing observability (monitoring, logging, alerting) across data pipelines and ML systems to catch issues early and keep things running smoothly Troubleshooting complex issues across distributed systems, spanning data infrastructure, training, and inference Continuously improving our data and MLOps practices, and helping shape the roadmap for how our platform evolves as we scale What you'll need Strong proficiency in Python and SQL, with a solid backend or data engineering foundation Hands-on experience with containerisation and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and working with a major cloud provider Experience building data pipelines and ETL/ELT processe
About the Team Training Runtime designs the core distributed runtime that powers everything from early research experiments to frontier-scale model runs. We work on building robust, scalable, high performance components to support our distributed training workloads. Our priorities are to maximize the productivity of our researchers and our hardware, with the goal of accelerating progress towards AGI. Within Training Runtime, the Process Management team develops the distributed OS responsible for launching, coordinating, and supervising the large numbers of processes that make up modern training workloads. Our runtime sits beneath training frameworks and on top of research infrastructure, ensuring jobs run reliably across massive clusters while maintaining performance, stability, and observability. Success for us is measured by both system reliability and researcher velocity - enabling ideas to scale from experiments to production training runs. About the Role As a Training Runtime: Process Management Engineer , you will work on the software that ties thousands of computers together and exposes them as a unified system. This system has to serve individual researchers running multiple parallel experiments, as well as our largest training runs spanning 100’s of thousands and even millions of machines and accelerators. This requires easy to use, introspectable systems that can promote a fast debugging and development cycle, as well as relentless optimization for scale while maintaining stability and performance throughout. You will work primarily in Rust , building high-performance asynchronous systems with a strong emphasis on performance, correctness, and scalability. Working at this scale and at the frontier of AI development poses novel challenges. Out-of-the-box approaches often don’t work. The problems you will be working on are highly ambiguous and require strong design judgment as well as proficient execution to advance the state of our infrastructure. We’re loo
