## Description

We are seeking a technically deep, creativity-driven AI Deployment Engineer who is already a power user of AI coding tools and passionate about pushing the boundaries of developer productivity.

As a member of the Codex Deployment Engineering team, you will partner directly with engineering leaders and hands-on builders to design, validate, and scale advanced AI workflows, often using Codex to prototype and build the very demos, integrations, and automations customers ultimately adopt.

This is a highly cross-functional role that blends technical architecture, product strategy, and customer-facing leadership. You’ll work closely with Sales, Solutions Engineering, Product, Applied Engineering, and the broader Codex organization to advocate for customer needs, shape product direction, and accelerate the successful deployment of intelligent coding systems across some of the world’s most influential companies.

Key responsibilities include:

- Serving as the primary technical subject matter expert on OpenAI Codex for a portfolio of customers,

- Partnering directly with customers to design and implement AI-enhanced development workflows,

- Building high-quality demos, reference implementations, and workflow automations,

- Leading large-format workshops, technical deep dives, and hands-on enablement sessions,

- Contributing technical content including examples, guides, patterns, and best practices to the OpenAI Cookbook,

- Gathering high-fidelity product insights from real customer deployments and translating them into clear product proposals and model feedback for internal teams,

- Influencing customer strategy and decision-making by framing how AI coding tools fit into their SDLC, technical roadmap, and organizational workflows,

- Serving as a trusted advisor on solution architecture, operational readiness, model configuration, security considerations, and best-practice adoption.

To thrive in this role, you should have:

- 5+ years of technical consulting, post-sales engineering, solutions architecture, or similar experience working directly with customers,

- An active power user of AI coding tools and have deeply customized your own developer workflow,

- Experience building scrappy, high-signal demos, integrations, and prototypes that clearly articulate what Codex can enable,

- A track record of delivering large, high-impact workshops or technical training to engineering teams,

- Experience contributing technical guides, patterns, or examples publicly,

- Strong communication skills, particularly in explaining complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders,

- A passion for customer success, reliability, safety, and operational excellence as much as technical ingenuity.

In return, you will join a talented team of engineers and researchers who are passionate about making AI a force for good. You will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects, collaborate with leading experts in the field, and contribute to the development of new AI technologies.
