Agent Post-Training Research

Job summary

Responsibilities

As a member of Agent Post-Training, you will improve the capabilities, reliability, and product fit of OpenAI's agentic models. You might own a research direction, build the infrastructure that makes large training runs faster and more trustworthy, create evals that reveal where models fail, or…

• Design and run experiments that improve agentic model behavior across coding, tool use, function calling, computer use, multi-agent collaboration, long-horizon tasks, factuality…
• Own end-to-end improvements to the post-training stack, including RL, data pipelines, graders, reward signals, evals, diagnostics, and model-behavior analysis.
• Build evals and environments that expose the next set of model failures, then turn those failures into training data, product fixes, or new research directions.
• Partner with Codex, API/platform, and ChatGPT product teams to understand what users need and translate product signal into model improvements.
• Work on early-training and alignment interventions, including data mixtures, objectives, synthetic data, and eval loops that shape downstream agent behavior.
