About the Team OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops AI-native silicon and system-level solutions for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. Building on efforts like Jalapeño, the team is developing future generations of AI-native silicon and tightly integrated systems to power the next generation of frontier models. By co-designing chips, systems, tools, and methodologies, the team helps deliver faster, more efficient, and production-ready hardware for OpenAI’s supercomputing platform. About the Role You will build the model runtime within the inference engine that executes complex, frontier models at scale on OpenAI’s custom silicon. The runtime will sit between models running on the hardware and the upper layers of the cluster serving software stack, translating demanding inference workloads into efficient execution while optimizing for throughput, latency, utilization, and reliability. You will work across model architecture, distributed systems, compilers, kernels, and silicon to design a production-grade runtime comparable in ambition to systems such as vLLM and SGLang, but customized and optimized for OpenAI’s AI accelerator. Your work will shape how new model capabilities map onto the platform and how quickly custom silicon can deliver meaningful performance in production. In this role, you will: Design and implement the LLM inference runtime for frontier models running on custom silicon. Build scheduling, continuous batching, memory management, KV-cache management, and execution orchestration for high-performance inference. Develop distributed execution strategies across chips, hosts, and racks, including model partitioning, communication, and synchronization.

By co-designing chips, systems, tools, and methodologies, the team helps deliver faster, more efficient, and production-ready hardware for OpenAI’s supercomputing platform. About the Role You will build the low-level device runtime that turns compiled programs into efficient, functional and performant execution on OpenAI’s custom AI accelerator. This software will schedule kernel launches, manage device memory and address spaces, coordinate synchronization, and expose reliable abstractions to higher-level runtimes and frameworks. You will work at the boundary of software and hardware, partnering with compiler, kernel, architecture, verification, and silicon teams to define interfaces and validate behavior. You will also use and improve event-based, cycle-accurate simulation to develop runtime capabilities before silicon is available, diagnose performance and correctness issues, and guide hardware-software co-design. In this role, you will: Design and implement the low-level device runtime for OpenAI custom silicon.

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: Imagine getting off a long international flight, standing in the freezing rain, attempting to contact your Airbnb host, only to realize that they are not responding because the Airbnb that you booked was not real. The Listing Integrity team’s ultimate goal is to prevent experiences like this by proactively detecting and removing fraudulent listings (Homes, Experiences, and Services) so that guests can search and book on Airbnb with confidence. The team uses data driven heuristics, machine learning models, and customer service operations in order to accomplish this goal. The Difference You Will Make: As a Software Engineer on the Listing Integrity team, you will be working with data scientists, designers, product managers, and customer service operations to innovate new ways we can stop bad actors in the ever evolving fraudulent listing creation and financial losses associated with it by collaborating across team boundaries. On this team, you must have the curiosity to dig deep into various end to end systems in order to understand how and where the fraud occurs. Your curiosity will be rewarded with finding projects that have outsized impacts on decreasing fraud losses and protecting Airbnb users from bad experiences while on vacation.
