About The Position

As a Full-Stack Software Engineer on this team, you’ll help invent and build the next generation of AI-powered cybersecurity products. You’ll work across the stack—designing user-facing features, building backend systems, integrating new AI capabilities, and ensuring our products are robust, reliable, and impactful.

This is a fast-moving, high-ownership role. You’ll collaborate closely with security experts, AI researchers, and product engineers, shaping both the technical foundation and the product direction of a team that is scaling quickly. You don’t need to be a security engineer to succeed here – just someone excited to solve meaningful problems and build tools that materially improve defenders’ capabilities.

Requirements

• 3+ years of relevant engineering experience at technology and product-driven companies.
• Experience building production web applications at scale using TypeScript, React and other web technologies.
• Familiarity with public cloud environments (Azure or AWS) and infrastructure tooling (Kubernetes, Terraform, etc.).
• Are comfortable building complex applications and systems from the ground up, with limited development infrastructure available to you.
• Are intrinsically driven to learn and fill in missing skills.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where problems may be ambiguous, emerging, or rapidly evolving.

Responsibilities

• Build, deploy, and maintain applications and systems that bring advanced AI-driven security capabilities to real users.
• Work directly with internal and external customers to deeply understand their workflows and translate them into intuitive, powerful product experiences.
• Design and build efficient and reusable frontend systems that drive complex web applications.
• Plan and deploy frontend infrastructure necessary to build, test, and deploy our products.
• Collaborate across OpenAI’s product, research, engineering, and security organizations to maximize impact.
• Help shape the engineering culture, architecture, and processes of a new business unit with a critical mission.
