About the team
OpenAI’s Forward Deployed Engineering team builds with customers to bring frontier AI into production. Our Cyber FDEs partner with the security and engineering teams that defend globally critical systems, from enterprise software to the core infrastructure it runs on. Cyber FDEs work closely with our Product, Research, and Go-to-Market teams to adapt our products and models to what customers need to defend their systems.
About the role
You’ll build systems that give defenders an advantage at a scale few engineering teams encounter. You might help an enterprise identify, test, and deploy patches across hundreds of thousands of code repositories, or help a security team analyze petabytes of logs for signs of malicious agents or coordinated attacks. Across these deployments, you’ll build tools that customer engineers can trust to support consequential security decisions.
You’ll work directly with customer security teams, from CISOs to frontline analysts. As AI changes how attackers operate, you’ll help these teams determine where their defenses need to evolve, prioritize what to build, and validate solutions with the engineers who will operate them.
