Ship fast while balancing difficult trade-offs in complex domains
Build core abstractions for trusted execution environments and end-to-end-encryption
Build product features for private inference and storage across ChatGPT, API, and future consumer devices
Update build systems to increase trust and verifiability
Integrate with safety and integrity infrastructure
Operate systems at scale with high reliability, including an on-call rotation
Collaborate with a diverse set of cross-functional teams across product, engineering, security, safety, policy, and legal

You might thrive in this role if you:

Care deeply about user privacy and security
Have 5+ years of experience in professional software engineering
Have experience building and scaling confidential computing or encryption technologies in production environments
Have experience with Kubernetes and cloud orchestration systems
Take pride in building and operating scalable, reliable, secure systems
Can collaborate well and drive alignment in the face of difficult trade-offs
