Network Engineer

OpenAI's Network Security team designs and operates the secure, reliable connectivity behind our offices, labs, campuses, cloud environments, people, and devices. We combine strong network fundamentals with automation, observability, and close partnership across IT, Security, Research, Applied, and business teams. As a Network Engineer, you will design, operate, troubleshoot, and automate secure, reliable networks across offices, labs, cloud connectivity, and production services.

You will balance strategic platform work - architecture, standards, roadmaps, lifecycle planning, and automation with responsive operations such as incidents, escalations, break/fix, and time-sensitive delivery. End-to-end ownership of secure enterprise routing, switching, wireless, WAN, network services, and cloud connectivity. A deliberate balance of strategic platform improvement and responsive troubleshooting, change safety, incident response, and operational delivery. Purposeful iteration through software, APIs, Infrastructure-as-Code, Git workflows, testing, and CI/CD that reduces recurring reactive work.
