Applied AI Engineer, Codex

About the team

The Applied AI Engineering (Codex) team helps customers adopt OpenAI's coding tools throughout their software development lifecycle. We act as trusted technical partners, guiding engineering teams as they integrate Codex into their projects and workflows. Our customers span digital-native companies to global enterprises, and we work side-by-side to accelerate how they plan, build, and deliver software.

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

• Have 5+ years of technical consulting, post-sales engineering, solutions architecture, or similar experience working directly with customers.
• Are an active power user of AI coding tools and have deeply customized your own developer workflow; you have a point of view on what makes engineers more productive.
• Enjoy building scrappy, high-signal demos, integrations, and prototypes that clearly articulate what Codex can enable, often using Codex to accelerate your own development process.
• Have experience delivering large, high-impact workshops or technical training to engineering teams and know how to craft sessions that are engaging, hands-on, and outcomes-driven.
• Have contributed technical guides, patterns, or examples publicly and care about clarity, pedagogy, and community impact.
• Communicate complex technical concepts in clear, persuasive written and verbal form especially when helping customers make strategic decisions about where and how to apply AI.
• Are excited by ambiguous, rapidly evolving problem spaces and enjoy iterating toward novel solutions hand-in-hand with customers.
• Care about customer success, reliability, safety, and operational excellence as much as you care about technical ingenuity.
