Training Runtime designs the core distributed machine-learning training runtime that powers everything from early research experiments to frontier-scale model runs. With a dual mandate to accelerate researchers and enable frontier scale, we’re building a unified, modular runtime that meets researchers where they are and moves with them up the scaling curve.
Our work focuses on three pillars: high-performance, asynchronous, zero-copy tensor and optimizer-state-aware data movement; performant, high-uptime, fault-tolerant training frameworks (training loop, state management, resilient checkpointing, deterministic orchestration, and observability); and distributed process management for long-lived, job-specific and user-provided processes.
We integrate proven large-scale capabilities into a composable, developer-facing runtime so teams can iterate quickly and run reliably at any scale, partnering closely with model-stack, research, and platform teams. Success for us is measured by raising both training throughput (how fast models train) and researcher throughput (how fast ideas become experiments and products).
About The Role
As a Training: ML Framework Engineer, you will work on improving the training throughput for our internal training framework, while enabling researchers to experiment with new ideas. This requires good engineering (for example designing, implementing, and optimizing state-of-the-art AI models), writing bug-free machine learning code (surprisingly difficult!), and acquiring deep knowledge of the performance of supercomputers. In all the projects this role pursues, the ultimate goal is to push the field forward.
We’re looking for people who love optimizing performance, understanding distributed systems, and who cannot stand having bugs in their code. Since our training framework is used for large runs with massive numbers of GPUs, performance improvements here will have a large impact.
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
Apply the latest techniques in our internal training framework to achieve impressive hardware efficiency for our training runsProfile and optimize our training frameworkWork with researchers to enable them to develop the next generation of models
You Might Thrive In This Role If You
Have run small scale ML experimentsLove figuring out how systems work and continuously come up with ideas for how to make them faster while minimizing complexity and maintenance burdenHave strong software engineering skills and are proficient in Python

OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops silicon and system-level solutions designed for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. The team is responsible for building the next generation of AI-native silicon while working closely with software and research partners to co-design hardware tightly integrated with AI models. In addition to delivering production-grade silicon for OpenAI’s supercomputing infrastructure, the team also creates custom design tools and methodologies that accelerate innovation and enable hardware optimized specifically for AI.
About The Role
We are looking for a systems-minded engineer to help advance our kernel development, performance engineering, and hardware-software co-design capabilities, with a particular focus on AI-assisted workflows and tooling. This person will work at the intersection of kernel optimization, developer tooling, observability, and research infrastructure, helping us improve both how production kernels are built and optimized, and how future hardware-software systems are designed and evaluated. The role is ideal for someone who is excited by low-level performance work, but also sees AI and automation as powerful tools for accelerating engineering velocity. You will help define the future of kernel engineering in the era of AI-assisted development.
In This Role, You May
Build developer tooling and workflows that make kernel development and performance optimization faster, more scalable, and easier to debug, integrate, and deploy.Develop observability, diagnostics, and validation infrastructure that makes AI-assisted optimization systems more interpretable, reliable, and effective.Optimize production kernels end to end by formulating optimization problems, running search loops, analyzing bottlenecks, debugging generated implementations, and landing improvements into production.Design abstractions, interfaces, and automation systems that accelerate kernel optimization, correctness validation, and hardware-software co-design.Improve AI-assisted optimization systems for specialized tasks through better datasets, evaluations, benchmarking, and research infrastructure.Partner across research and engineering teams to turn new ideas into practical systems spanning production needs and long-term infrastructure strategy.
You Might Thrive In This Role If You Have
Strong systems or tooling engineering experience, with a background in low-level software, performance optimization, or infrastructure.Experience with developer tooling, debugging infrastructure, profiling, observability, or workflow design for technical users.Depth in kernel development, accelerator architecture, compiler systems, or related performance-critical domains.Familiarity with AI-assisted systems, agentic workflows, post-training, or reinforcement learning for engineering or research applications.Strong experimental judgment, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to move fluidly between research exploration and production execution.Interest in compilers, DSLs, program synthesis, or AI for systems.
Preferred Profile
The ideal candidate is a strong systems and tooling engineer with real depth in kernels and accelerators. They are comfortable working across software and hardware boundaries, can reason deeply about performance, abstractions, and system design, and have hands-on experience optimizing code for GPUs, high-performance CPUs, or custom accelerators. They view AI not as the end product, but as a force multiplier for engineering productivity and system optimization.
To comply with U.S. export control laws and regulations, candidates for this role may need to meet certain legal status requirements as provided in those laws and regulations.
