Senior Software Engineer, Product

In this role, you will:

• Design and build core experimentation and rollout infrastructure used by teams across OpenAI to launch and evaluate product and model changes safely.
• Develop systems for feature management, progressive rollouts, and canary deployments that allow engineers to ship quickly while minimizing risk to users.
• Partner directly with Data Science to enable scaled adoption of advanced statistical methodologies.
• Partner with product, infrastructure, and research teams across the organization to integrate experimentation and rollout systems deeply into their product development lifecycle.
• Lead large technical initiatives, shaping the architecture and long-term evolution of OpenAI’s experimentation and launch infrastructure.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have strong experience building internal tooling infrastructure, such as internal data or experimentation platforms, feature flagging systems, rollout tooling, or internal developer platforms.
• Enjoy working on systems that enable other engineers to move faster, and care deeply about developer experience and platform usability.
• Are comfortable designing and operating large-scale distributed systems that support high traffic products and rapid iteration cycles.
• Take ownership of complex technical problems end-to-end and enjoy driving architectural decisions that impact many teams.
• Thrive in fast-moving environments where ambiguity is high and the opportunity for impact is large.
