About the Team Codex is OpenAI's software engineering agent. Codex Security extends that work into one of the most important product areas in AI: helping organizations find, validate, prioritize, and fix real vulnerabilities in the software they build and depend on. The Codex Cyber team is building the product and platform foundations for AI-native application security. This includes Codex Security product experiences, cloud-based security analysis, platform controls across Codex, customer deployment and support tooling, and infrastructure that helps security researchers and cyber models improve over time. The team is early, small, and growing quickly, with a mandate to move fast and hire exceptional builders. About the Role We are looking for software engineers first: strong full-stack or product-minded generalists who can own ambiguous product and platform problems end to end. Security experience is helpful, and security curiosity is important, but this is not a role for security specialists who only occasionally write code. The right person is an excellent builder who is excited to work in security and can turn complex research, product, and customer needs into reliable systems. You will work across user-facing product surfaces, developer workflows, backend services, security analysis pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and internal tooling. You may build features that make Codex Security more useful for application security teams, systems that scale cloud-based security analysis, platform controls that make agentic coding safer, or infrastructure that helps security researchers and models become more effective. You will collaborate closely with engineering, product, security research, infrastructure, and customer-facing partners as Codex Cyber becomes a major product and platform investment for OpenAI. In this role, you will: Build end-to-end product features for Codex Security, from developer-facing interfaces to APIs, backend services, and workflow tooling. Own a

About the team The Agent Post-Training team creates the frontier agents OpenAI ships to the world. We are training the models behind our agents in Codex, ChatGPT, the API, and other frontier products: persistent, proactive intelligence that can operate computers, collaborate with people and other agents, and expand what people and organizations can imagine, attempt, and achieve. We define what the next generation of agents should be able to do, build the training signal that teaches those abilities, and run the experiments that make them real. Our work spans coding, tool use, computer use, multi-agent coordination, long-horizon execution, factuality, instruction following, calibrated reasoning, and taste. Our team is where new model capabilities get made. We build the data, environments, graders, training methods, and feedback loops that shape what OpenAI's next agents can do, then carry those capabilities through major training runs and into the products people use. About the Role As a researcher working on Frontier Evals & Environments, you will help build north star model environments to drive progress towards safe AGI/ASI. Your work will directly guide the research programs of the most ambitious training runs happening at OpenAI. Some prior open-sourced evaluations built by researchers in this role include GDPval , SWE-bench Verified , MLE-bench , PaperBench , and SWE-Lancer . If you are interested in feeling firsthand the fast progress of our models, and steering them towards good outcomes, this is the role for you. You will work with researchers, engineers, product teams, infrastructure teams, and safety/alignment partners to decide what should go into major model runs, measure whether it worked, and ship improvements into products used by real people. This is a high-agency role for people who want their work to land directly in frontier models. In this role, you'll: Create ambitious RL environments to push our models to their limits, and measure frontier

About the Team Training Runtime builds the distributed systems that power OpenAI's largest model training runs - most recently GPT-5.5! The Data Movement area owns the infrastructure that keeps training jobs supplied with the right data at the right time, and keeps model state moving safely and efficiently across large clusters. Our work spans machine learning systems, distributed storage, high-throughput data loading, reliability engineering, and developer experience. Success means researchers can move quickly while training runs remain fast, reproducible, debuggable, and resilient at scale. About the Role We are looking for a deeply hands-on Technical Lead Manager to own datasets throughout our training infrastructure. This person will set the direction for how training jobs read data: the APIs, storage contracts, versioning model, benchmarks, debugging tools, and reliability guarantees that make data access consistent across current and future training frameworks. You will begin as the primary technical owner for dataset reads, working directly in the code while aligning researchers, training framework owners, storage teams, and infrastructure partners around a durable platform. The problem is deceptively hard at frontier scale: make enormous, heterogeneous datasets easy to consume, correct across distributed workers, observable when something goes wrong, and flexible enough to support pretraining, reinforcement learning, and multimodal training. In this role, you will Design and build a unified dataset read platform for multiple current and future training frameworks. Define dataset APIs, storage-format expectations, registration/versioning, and migration paths that make data access reproducible and maintainable. Build reliability into the read path, including stateful iteration, caching, fast restart, recovery, and clear operational contracts.
