Job Description:

We're seeking an exceptional Principal-level Offensive Security Engineer to challenge and strengthen OpenAI's security posture. This role isn't your typical red team job - it's an opportunity to engage broadly and deeply, craft innovative attack simulations, collaborate closely with defensive teams, and influence strategic security improvements across the organization. You'll have the chance to not only find vulnerabilities but actively drive their resolution, automate offensive techniques with cutting-edge technologies, and use your unique attacker perspective to shape our security strategy. This role will be primarily focused on continuously testing our hardware products and related services.

Job Responsibility:

  • Collaborate proactively with engineering teams to enhance security and mitigate risks in hardware, firmware, and software
  • Perform comprehensive penetration testing on our diverse suite of products
  • Leverage advanced automation and OpenAI technologies to optimize your offensive security work
  • Present insightful, actionable findings clearly and compellingly to inspire impactful change
  • Influence security strategy by providing attacker-driven insights into risk and threat modeling

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of hands-on experience or exceptional accomplishments demonstrating equivalent expertise
  • Exceptional skill in code review, identifying novel and subtle vulnerabilities
  • Demonstrated mastery assessing complex technology stacks
  • Proven ability to reverse engineer bootrom images, firmware, or silicon-level components
  • Deep familiarity with low-level kernel operations, secure boot processes, and hardware-software interactions
  • Hands-on experience building and validating secure boot chains and threat models
  • Proficiency with hardware debugging tools (UART, JTAG, SWD, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers)
  • Solid programming skills in C/C++, Python, or assembly for embedded systems
  • Industry experience securing consumer hardware (e.g., mobile devices, IoT, chipsets)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences
  • Strong intuitive understanding of trust boundaries and risk assessment in dynamic contexts
  • Excellent coding skills, capable of writing robust tools and automation for offensive operations
  • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts effectively through compelling storytelling
  • Proven track record of not just finding vulnerabilities but actively contributing to solutions in complex codebases

Nice to have:

  • Prior experience working in tech startups or fast-paced technology environments
  • Experience in related disciplines such as Software Engineering (SWE), Detection Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), Security Engineering, or IT Infrastructure
What we offer:
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family, with employer contributions to Health Savings Accounts
  • Pre-tax accounts for Health FSA, Dependent Care FSA, and commuter expenses (parking and transit)
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer match
  • Paid parental leave (up to 24 weeks for birth parents and 20 weeks for non-birthing parents), plus paid medical and caregiver leave (up to 8 weeks)
  • Paid time off: flexible PTO for exempt employees and up to 15 days annually for non-exempt employees
  • 13+ paid company holidays, and multiple paid coordinated company office closures throughout the year for focus and recharge, plus paid sick or safe time (1 hour per 30 hours worked, or more, as required by applicable state or local law)
  • Mental health and wellness support
  • Employer-paid basic life and disability coverage
  • Annual learning and development stipend to fuel your professional growth
  • Daily meals in our offices, and meal delivery credits as eligible
  • Relocation support for eligible employees
  • Additional taxable fringe benefits, such as charitable donation matching and wellness stipends, may also be provided
  • Offers Equity
  • Performance-related bonus(es) for eligible employees
