后端软件工程师，ChatGPT ImageGen

About the Team The ChatGPT organization at OpenAI supports our mission by bringing advanced AI capabilities to hundreds of millions of users worldwide. The Image Generation team is responsible for one of the fastest-growing experiences in ChatGPT, enabling users to create, edit, and transform images through natural language. Recent advances in our multimodal image models have dramatically improved image quality, instruction following, editing precision, consistency, and text rendering, unlocking entirely new creative and professional workflows. We work at the intersection of research, infrastructure, and product to build the systems that power image generation at global scale. Our team partners closely with researchers, product engineers, designers, and platform teams to bring state-of-the-art image capabilities to millions of users while continuously pushing the boundaries of what AI-powered creation can do. About the Role We are looking for an experienced Backend Engineer to join the Image Generation team and help build the systems that power image creation and editing across ChatGPT. You'll work on the core backend infrastructure that enables users to generate, edit, and iterate on visual content using cutting-edge multimodal AI models. This includes building highly scalable services, orchestration systems, APIs, storage platforms, and distributed infrastructure that support billions of image generations and editing workflows. You'll partner closely with product, research, and mobile teams to transform breakthrough AI capabilities into reliable, performant experiences used by millions around the world. In this role, you will: • Design, build, and operate backend systems that power image generation and image editing experiences in ChatGPT.

• Develop scalable APIs, services, and infrastructure that support multimodal AI workflows.

• Optimize reliability, latency, throughput, and cost across large-scale distributed systems.

• Partner with researchers to productionize new image generation capabilities and bring them to users quickly and safely.

• Collaborate closely with Android, iOS, web, and full-stack engineers to build seamless end-to-end product experiences.

• Drive technical architecture decisions across storage, serving, orchestration, and platform systems.
