About the role
About
the Team OpenAI’s Stargate organization is building the physical infrastructure required to power frontier AI systems at massive scale.
The team operates across the full lifecycle of infrastructure development and operations — from hardware, manufacturing, and partner readiness through deployment, bring-up, and sustained production operations. That end-to-end ownership model is a core part of how Stargate is being built. This is not a traditional, heavily layered hardware organization. Stargate is intentionally staying lean and is optimizing for hands-on operators who can work across design, manufacturing, and deployment boundaries, influence partners quickly, and prevent operational issues before they become system-level failures.
About
the Role As a Manufacturing Test Engineer on Stargate, you will own the development of manufacturing test strategies, tools, and execution practices for critical AI infrastructure hardware. You will work at the intersection of hardware engineering, manufacturing partners, infrastructure systems, and deployment teams to ensure that hardware shipped into OpenAI environments is testable, reliable, and production-ready at scale. In this role, you will translate product and system
requirements into manufacturing test coverage, drive the design of test stations and automation, and partner closely with suppliers and contract manufacturers to identify, root-cause, and eliminate yield issues and field escapes. This role is especially important in an environment where OpenAI depends on external partners and needs technical operators who can independently verify quality, challenge assumptions, and enforce repeatable, controlled execution.
