Software Engineer, Observability

We’re building the observability product for OpenAI—from scalable infrastructure to a rich, AI-powered UI. Our systems ingest over petabytes of logs and billions of time series metrics across our fleet. We're now layering intelligence on top—think agents that summarize SEVs, auto-generate dashboards, or help engineers debug through notebook-like UIs.

We’re hiring software engineers across the stack—infra, backend, and product. You’ll join a small, gritty team building both foundational infra and novel internal tools to make OpenAI's production systems reliable, performant, and observable.

• Own core observability infrastructure, including distributed logging, time series, and trace storage
• Build AI-native tools that help engineers detect, understand, and resolve issues autonomously.
• Contribute to UI experiences like dashboards, notebooking, or interactive debugging
• Collaborate closely with engineers, researchers, user ops, and other teams across the company to build the next generation observability product
