More about this role
API Multicloud partners with cloud service providers (CSPs) to bring OpenAI’s frontier models and APIs into the cloud environments where developers and enterprises already build. We own the API end to end across CSP platforms, from API integration and request routing through inference execution, capacity management, and day-to-day operations. Our mission is to make these capabilities available broadly and safely while preserving the reliability and developer experience customers expect from OpenAI.
Delivering that experience requires work across the stack: adapting API services and cloud-native integrations, bringing up model-serving environments, validating new releases, and operating the systems that connect customer requests to available capacity. We work directly with CSP engineering teams and partner closely with OpenAI’s inference, API, infrastructure, security, and Safety Systems teams. Together, we turn new model capabilities and partner requirements into dependable production services, with attention to performance, operational readiness, and efficient use of compute.
Our work contributes to OpenAI’s AWS partnership , including the launch of Daybreak Red and Daybreak Blue...
