Job Description
About the Team
ChatGPT relies on a large and growing GPU fleet to serve inference workloads reliably and efficiently.
Our team builds the software, tooling, and operational systems that help manage this fleet at scale. We work across production engineering, distributed systems, capacity management, and operational automation to improve reliability, reduce manual work, and make better use of available compute.
About the Role
We are looking for a software engineer with experience building or operating large-scale production systems.
You will develop the systems that help manage the GPU fleet powering ChatGPT, including tooling for fleet health, capacity planning, operational automation, and incident response. You will work closely with infrastructure, research, and product engineering teams to improve reliability, developer productivity, and compute utilization.
This role is a good fit for engineers who enjoy solving complex operational problems and building software that makes production infrastructure easier to run at scale.
In This Role, You Will
Build software and internal tools to manage large-scale GPU infrastructure supporting ChatGPT inference.
Develop systems for capacity planning, fleet health monitoring, and resource utilization.
Automate operational workflows, including incident detection, diagnosis, and response.
Identify and address bottlenecks affecting fleet reliability, scalability, and performance.
Partner with infrastructure, research, and product engineering teams to improve the compute platform.
You Might Thrive in This Role If You
Have experience operating large-scale production infrastructure, GPU clusters, or other compute-intensive distributed systems.
Have a background in production engineering, site reliability engineering, infrastructure engineering, or platform engineering.
Have built software that automates operational workflows and reduces manual work.
Have worked with distributed infrastructure, cluster orchestration, or large-scale internal infrastructure platforms.
Understand infrastructure observability, monitoring, capacity planning, and incident management.
Enjoy identifying cross-team problems and building reusable tools that improve developer productivity.
Are comfortable working across software engineering and systems operations, with ownership from design through production.
Thrive in fast-moving environments with significant technical ambiguity.
Qualifications
Five or more years of software engineering experience building production infrastructure.
Strong programming skills in Go, Python, C++, Rust, or a comparable language.
Experience designing or operating highly available distributed systems.
Experience with GPU infrastructure, high-performance computing, ML infrastructure, or large-scale compute platforms.
Strong debugging, systems design, and operational problem-solving skills.
Strong communication skills and experience collaborating across engineering teams.
