Software Engineer, Frontend

About the Team

The ChatGPT for Work team works across research, engineering, product, and design to bring OpenAI’s technology to consumers and businesses.

We seek to learn from deployment and distribute the benefits of AI, while ensuring that this powerful tool is used responsibly and safely.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced frontend engineer to join our Applied Engineering teams. You’ll work in a deeply iterative, collaborative, fast-paced environment to bring our technology to millions of users around the world, and ensure it’s delivered with safety and reliability in mind. We value engineers who are self-starters, care deeply about the end user experience, and take pride in building products to solve customer needs.

You will help build and deploy our ChatGPT for Work product. We shipped ChatGPT for Work in August last year, and we’re humbled and excited by the reception – a recent study found that ChatGPT can drive up to 30% more productivity in knowledge work.

In this role, you will:

• Partner closely with research, product, and design to bring new features and research capabilities to the world

• Design and build efficient and reusable front-end systems that drive complex web applications

• Plan and deploy front end infrastructure necessary to build, test, and deploy our products

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have at least 4 years of experience building production web apps at scale using TypeScript, React, and other web technologies.

• Are comfortable building complex applications and systems from the ground up, with limited development infrastructure available to you.

• Have a voracious and intrinsic desire to learn and fill in missing skills. An equally strong talent for sharing that information clearly and concisely with others.

• Are comfortable with ambiguity and rapidly changing conditions. You view changes as an opportunity to add structure and order when necessary.
