About the job

We are seeking an experienced software engineer to join our Cloud Agents team, which focuses on building and scaling the product infrastructure for long-running agents in the cloud. This includes developing systems for orchestration, sandboxing, isolation, secure connectivity, secrets management, observability, reliability, and cost controls. You will play a key role in designing and operating systems that orchestrate agents at scale, working closely with product engineers across ChatGPT, API, and Codex to define essential abstractions and enable rapid product development. A strong background in backend or infrastructure development, particularly with Python, Rust, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, or product platforms, is highly valued.

Responsibilities

  • Design and scale orchestration, sandboxing, and storage systems for agentic workloads.
  • Partner with product engineers to build a platform that accelerates their development cycles.
  • Enhance the reliability, security, performance, and cost efficiency of long-running agents.
  • Deploy services capable of operating across diverse environments and clouds.

Requirements

  • 9+ years of professional engineering experience in relevant roles at technology and product-driven companies.
  • Experience leading large-scale backend, platform, or infrastructure projects from conception to production.
  • Proficiency in backend languages such as Python, Go, Rust, or TypeScript.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, cloud platforms, and production reliability.
  • Experience abstracting complex infrastructure and building platforms for product engineers.
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced environment with a focus on security and operational excellence.
