Software Engineer, Infranomics
OpenAI, San Francisco +2
The role
We are looking for a Software Engineer to lead the design, implementation, and operation of systems for infrastructure cost and efficiency. You will build the platforms that explain where infrastructure spend goes, identify opportunities to improve utilization, and help teams plan the capacity they need.
We ideally want direct experience building and operating software for infrastructure economics, such as usage metering, cost attribution, resource efficiency, budgeting, forecasting, or capacity planning. You should have owned systems that connect compute, storage, or network consumption to cost and help teams make measurable efficiency and investment decisions.
You will set technical direction for a growing area while staying close to the code. Working with infrastructure engineers, product teams, finance, and leadership, you will turn ambiguous business and engineering problems into reliable software, shared data, and measurable improvements. This role offers substantial autonomy and the opportunity to shape how OpenAI manages its infrastructure investment.
