About the roleWe're looking for exceptional engineers who are excited to invent entirely new ways for people to interact with AI. You'll work at the intersection of engineering, product, and design to explore, prototype, and build novel interface concepts that push beyond traditional software paradigms.
This role requires comfort with ambiguity, strong product instincts, and a willingness to move fluidly between experimentation and production systems. You'll help shape both the capabilities and the user experiences that define how people engage with AI.
In this role you will:- Design, prototype, and build novel AI-native interfaces and interaction models.
- Develop foundational technologies and frameworks that enable generative UI and computer use experiences.
- Collaborate closely with designers, product thinkers, and engineers to rapidly explore and validate new concepts.
- Build end-to-end prototypes and production systems that can influence future OpenAI products.
- Contribute to platform technologies that can be adopted across multiple product surfaces.
- Help establish technical direction and engineering best practices for an incubation-stage team.
- Participate in a highly iterative development process focused on learning, experimentation, and user feedback.
You might thrive in this role if you:- Have strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building user-facing products.
- Enjoy working in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where the path forward is not always obvious.
- Have experience with Apple platforms, Windows, or desktop development
- Are excited by zero-to-one product development and early-stage exploration.
- Have a strong product sense and enjoy thinking deeply about user experience and interaction design.
- Can rapidly prototype ideas while also building robust, scalable systems when needed.
- Are energized by cross-functional collaboration and enjoy working closely with design and product partners.
- Are curious about how AI will transform software and motivated to help define what comes next.
- Believe that breakthrough products emerge from tight feedback loops between ideas, prototypes, technology, and users.
