OpenAI Consumer Devices is building next-generation AI products for everyday use. The Systems Integration team validates complete device experiences across hardware, software, cloud services, connectivity, and accessories—uncovering issues that component-level testing alone cannot reveal. As a Systems Test Engineer, you will design and execute end-to-end testing for complex device experiences spanning hardware, software, connectivity, cloud services, and accessories. You'll translate product behavior and real-world use cases into structured, reproducible test procedures and build test environments that allow failures to be reliably reproduced and diagnosed. Key responsibilities include: - Design end-to-end test coverage for user journeys, realistic usage patterns, edge cases, degraded conditions, and failure scenarios across devices, services, connectivity, and accessories - Build and operate complex test environments involving devices, servers, networks, accounts, peripherals, and controlled environmental conditions - Reproduce failures and diagnose systems by isolating contributing components, collecting logs and telemetry, and providing engineers with clear reproduction steps - Automate high-value scenarios by identifying repeatable manual workflows and developing tooling for device control, setup, measurement, and test execution - Strengthen regression coverage by converting field issues and production failures into repeatable tests - Partner across embedded, systems, cloud, hardware, QA, and product teams to improve testability and close validation gaps You'll combine strong systems thinking, hands-on testing skills, technical curiosity, and a rigorous approach to reproducing and diagnosing failures across multiple components. This role offers the opportunity to build the end-to-end validation foundation early—shaping test coverage, environments, and workflows from prototype through launch for an entirely new category of devices. The role is based in San Francisco with a hybrid work model of four days in the office per week. Relocation assistance is available.
