Software Engineer, Delivery / CD
OpenAI, San Francisco +2
The role
The Engineering Acceleration Delivery / Continuous Deployment team builds and operates the systems that safely ship OpenAI’s infrastructure and product code to production.
We own the deployment platform, release pipelines, and rollout safety mechanisms that allow engineers across OpenAI to deploy changes rapidly while minimizing operational risk. Our mission is to make production deployments fast, safe, and increasingly autonomous.
This role sits at the intersection of developer productivity, distributed systems reliability, and large-scale infrastructure orchestration.
What you will do
- Design and build continuous deployment infrastructure that safely rolls out changes across dozens of Kubernetes clusters and global regions.
- Develop systems for progressive delivery, including canary releases, staged rollouts, and automated rollback.
- Improve engineering velocity by reducing friction in the release pipeline and automating manual operational workflows.
