Software Engineer, Computer-Using Agent

About the Team

The Computer-Using Agent team is responsible for developing and deploying computer-using agentsagents that operate graphical user interface-based tools such as computers and browsers. As the team behind Operator, OpenAI's externally released computer-using agent product, we collaborate with cross-functional teams at every training and deployment stage to advance the capabilities of these agents. We evaluate and enhance their capabilities holistically, considering aspects such as perception, reasoning, manipulation, long-horizon reliability, safety and more. Combining rigorous research with high-quality engineering across evaluation, data, training, RL environments and shared infrastructures, we aim to create reliable and practical computer-using agents.

About the Role

Were looking for strong engineers to help unblock and drive critical infrastructure work related to training, operating and deploying our computer-using agent. You will play a crucial role in designing and maintaining robust and secure systems that facilitate the training of next-gen computer-using agents at a massive scale. You will work closely with researchers to enhance system capabilities and support experimental and production workloads.

You will work directly on the systems that allow models to control entire operating systems, browse the internet, and take actions in secure environments. Were looking for people with deep experience building AI infrastructure and who are used to working closely with researchers to build high-performance systems at massive scale for specialized use cases.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.

In this role, you will :

• You will oversee the development and performance of CUA-specific containers on extremely high-scale Kubernetes clusters, ensuring functionality, security, and reliability.
• Use Terraform to create and manage complex large-scale infrastructure that powers our RL training environment.
• Develop and maintain Python / FastAPI / gRPC services that manage our large-scale AI computing environment.
• Collaborate with research teams to stand up and optimize systems for novel AI training runs and experimental applications.
• Design, implement, test, and debug code across our research stack.
