About this role
Software Engineer, Delivery / CD San Francisco, California, United States, New York City, Seattle About the Role The Engineering Acceleration Delivery / Continuous Deployment team builds and operates the systems that safely ship OpenAI's infrastructure and product code to production. We own the deployment platform, release pipelines, and rollout safety mechanisms that allow engineers across OpenAI to deploy changes rapidly while minimizing operational risk. Our mission is to make production deployments fast, safe, and increasingly autonomous. This role sits at the intersection of developer productivity, distributed systems reliability, and large-scale infrastructure orchestration. In This Role, You Will - Design and build continuous deployment infrastructure that safely rolls out changes across dozens of Kubernetes clusters and global regions. - Develop systems for progressive delivery, including canary releases, staged rollouts, and automated rollback. - Improve engineering velocity by reducing friction in the release pipeline and automating manual operational workflows. - Work with product and infrastructure teams to ensure their services are deployable, observable, and resilient at scale. - Implement and evolve deployment methodologies such as GitOps, infrastructure-as-code, and progressive delivery patterns. - Build systems that automatically evaluate deployment health using metrics, logs, traces, and alerts to detect regressions and trigger safe rollbacks. - Build systems that support agent-assisted or autonomous deployment workflows using modern AI tooling. Technologies commonly used in this environment include: - Kubernetes for large-scale container orchestration and runtime infrastructure - Python and FastAPI for internal services - Terraform for infrastructure as code - GitOps-based deployment workflows (e.g., ArgoCD, Flux,
