About the Team The Intelligence and Investigations team seeks to rapidly identify and mitigate abuse and strategic risks to ensure a safe online ecosystem. We are dedicated to identifying emerging abuse trends, analyzing risks, and working with our internal and external partners to implement effective mitigation strategies to protect against misuse. Our efforts contribute to OpenAI's overarching goal of developing AI that benefits humanity. The Strategic Intelligence & Analysis (SIA) team provides safety intelligence for OpenAI’s products by monitoring, analyzing, and forecasting real-world abuse, geopolitical risks, and strategic threats. Our work informs safety mitigations, product decisions, and partnerships, ensuring OpenAI’s tools are deployed securely and responsibly across critical sectors. About the Role As a Quantitative Intelligence Analyst , you will focus on discovering novel and emerging risks in complex human–AI systems before they are well-defined, measurable, or widely understood. You will use deep subject matter expertise and quantitative tooling to surface weak, early, and unconventional risk signals. You will build analytic models that explain how harms could emerge and translate ambiguous patterns into structured, data-driven insight. Your work will help identify potential gaps in policy or coverage and operationalize previously unmeasured problems into signals that can support detection, mitigation, and planning downstream. You will develop analytical frameworks that map how new risks form, evolve, and propagate as products change, policies shift, and external events unfold. Your analyses will directly inform strategic risk prioritization and planning across the company, with regular visibility through strategic risk products.

About the Team OpenAI’s API Multicloud team is responsible for extending OpenAI’s API platform into strategic cloud environments, starting with AWS . The team’s mission is to distribute OpenAI’s API broadly and safely by enabling key API technologies in cloud-native environments, in close partnership with Amazon and internal teams across Codex, Research, Safety Systems, and Applied. The team is focused on bringing core developer and enterprise capabilities into cloud-native environments, including cloud-hosted Codex, model customization / post-training as a service, and new stateful runtime environments for agentic workloads. This work sits at the intersection of production ML systems, developer platforms, model behavior, and large-scale infrastructure. About the Role We’re looking for a backend engineer who can quickly understand OpenAI’s models, products, and systems, then adapt first-party deployments for other cloud platforms. You’ll build backend services, APIs, SDK integrations, authentication flows, and cloud service infrastructure that let developers use OpenAI capabilities in the cloud environments where they already build. This role involves working across teams, sometimes embedded with partner product groups, to ship products quickly and across multiple platforms at the same time. It’s a strong fit for engineers who have built developer tools, especially AI-powered tools, communicate clearly across technical boundaries, and can shape architectures that support different deployment models; experience building cloud services is a strong plus. In this role, you will: Build backend and infrastructure systems that extend OpenAI’s API platform into cloud-native environments, like AWS. Design and ship cloud-contained products that allow customers to use OpenAI capabilities while keeping workloads and data within cloud environments. Help stand up cloud-hosted Codex experiences powered by the OpenAI Responses API. Build the infrastructure and runtime abstractions

Our work informs safety mitigations, product decisions, and partnerships, ensuring OpenAI’s tools are deployed securely and responsibly across critical sectors. About the Role As an Agentic Risk Analyst, you will shape OpenAI’s operating picture for current agentic risk across products and platforms. You will bring a strategic, system-level perspective to current risks, connecting individual incidents, technical findings, abuse patterns, and external developments to relevant workstreams, mitigations, owners, dependencies, and residual gaps. You will analyze how risks emerge through autonomy, multi-step task execution, tool use, memory, retrieval, connectors, computer-use capabilities, and multi-agent workflows, with a particular focus on both adversarial misuse and unintended system behavior. By synthesizing signals from investigations, evaluations, red teaming, security reviews, product launches, external research, and real-world incidents, you will maintain a current view of material risks and evolving threat patterns. Your work will help turn complex and often ambiguous signals into coordinated decisions and measurable follow-through across product, safety, security, policy, and governance teams. You will work closely with investigators, engineers, product, policy, safety, and security teams, and measurement and forecasting
