OpenAI
About the Team
Security is at the foundation of OpenAI’s mission to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.
The Security team protects OpenAI’s technology, people, and products. We are technical in what we build but are operational in how we do our work, and are committed to supporting all products and research at OpenAI. Our Security team tenets include: prioritizing for impact, enabling researchers, preparing for future transformative technologies, and engaging a robust security culture.
About the Role
Trusted Computing and Cryptography is an engineering and security team within the OpenAI Security organization. We focus on:
deploying high-performance cryptography at scale
key management (including secure offline physical backups, multi-party computation)
trusted hardware enclaves that enable everything from boot measurements to GPU confidential computation
We're looking for a software engineer to join our team at OpenAI to help us build out and secure our critical computing infrastructure, focusing on trusted computing and cryptography at scale.
This role may be based remotely in the US with occasional travel to our San Francisco HQ or other offices as needed by the team or role. 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:
Write high-quality, performance-critical code in Rust and Python.
Work alongside researchers, engineers, and security experts to integrate and scale advanced cryptographic techniques into our production and research systems.
Write foundational libraries to support cryptographic operations and ensure security best practices are embedded into our infrastructure.
Design, implement, and maintain secure key management systems for production environments.
Design and deploy systems that help us trust our infrastructure, using security primitives and technologies such as tpm2, Secure Boot, Nitro Enclaves, confid
