About the Team The Intelligence & Investigations team helps OpenAI understand and respond to the risks that can accompany increasingly capable AI. Our work has two central responsibilities: investigating potential high-severity misuse or harm involving our models, and monitoring and characterizing risks to OpenAI, our users, and the broader world. We bring together analysts, investigators, engineers, and other subject matter experts to turn complex signals into a clearer picture of what matters and support informed action. About the Role As an engineer on Intelligence & Investigations Engineering, you will build the systems that support both sides of this mission: giving OpenAI’s leadership superhuman situational awareness of important risks and developments, and accelerating expert investigators and analysts as they assess potential high-severity misuse or harm. You will design, prototype, ship, and maintain end-to-end products that use OpenAI’s models and infrastructure to make sense of large, complex information environments. These systems will surface meaningful signals, synthesize important developments, and help people make well-informed decisions when the stakes are high. You will work directly with analysts, investigators, and other subject matter experts to understand their needs and build products that make their work faster, more effective, and more scalable. Your engineering work will be central to how the team investigates potential misuse, develops situational awareness, and informs decisions. We’re looking for engineers who combine strong technical and analytical skills with product judgment and the ability to move between rapid prototyping and reliable production systems. You should be comfortable working with ambiguous problems, complex data, and evolving AI capabilities—and excited to build tools that expand what human experts can understand and accomplish. 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: - 7+ years of experience as a software engineer - Build intelligence systems that monitor and characterize emerging risks, synthesize internal and external signals, and give OpenAI leadership a timely, decision-ready view of what matters - Develop investigative tools that help analysts, investigators, and subject matter experts assess potential high-severity misuse or harm with greater sp
