About the Team

Security is at the foundation of OpenAI’s mission to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. The Security team protects OpenAI’s technology, people, and products. We are technical in what we build but are operational in how we do our work, and are committed to supporting all products and research at OpenAI. Our Security team tenets include: prioritizing for impact, enabling researchers, preparing for future transformative technologies, and engaging a robust security culture.

About the Role

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.

In this role you will:

• 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.

• Exceptional skill in code review, identifying novel and subtle vulnerabilities.

• Demonstrated mastery assessing complex technology stacks, including:

• 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.
