<h2>About the Team</h2>The Monetization team is a new cross-functional group working across engineering, product, research, and design to build the foundational systems that will help OpenAI scale access to intelligence responsibly. Our mission is to develop user-first, privacy-preserving monetization products, including next-generation ads experiences that strengthen user trust, unlock economic opportunity, and support OpenAI’s long-term innovation.Monetization plays a critical role in enabling OpenAI to continue pushing the boundaries of AI capabilities while ensuring the benefits of AGI are broadly shared. We believe monetization must be aligned with user value, uphold rigorous privacy and safety standards, and sustain a healthy ecosystem of developers and businesses.This team operates in a greenfield environment and moves quickly through prototyping, experimentation, and iterative deployment. We partner closely with Product, Design, and Research to bring research breakthroughs into real-world systems at global scale.<h2>About the Role</h2>We’re looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to build the core mobile monetization experiences and iOS foundations that power how users sign up, manage their account, access family features, pay for services, and interact with monetized experiences safely and confidently across OpenAI’s mobile apps.This is a 0→1, greenfield opportunity: you’ll help define the architecture, primitives, and reusable frameworks that product teams depend on to ship quickly while meeting the highest standards for security, reliability, privacy, and user trust. You’ll partner closely with backend, product, design, safety, and research to translate evolving requirements into high-quality iOS systems and experiences.<h2>In this role, you will:</h2><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li>Build and ship new monetization experiences on iOS, including purchase flows, subscription/plan management, and monetization-adjacent surfaces that showcase the power of AI.</li><li>Design and maintain shared iOS frameworks and primitives for account, trust, and commerce flows used across OpenAI’s mobile apps (e.g., identity, entitlements, payments, policy-aware UX).</li><li>Own complex client-side systems spanning UI, networking, local state, observability, and Apple platform integrations (StoreKit, Sign in with Apple, device security primitives, etc.).</li><li>Optimize performance, reliability, and responsiveness for global-scale usage, including robust offline/poor-network handling and safe rollout strategies.</li><li>Establish and evolve testing frameworks (unit, integration, snapshot/UI, and end-to-end) and refine architecture for long-term maintainability.</li><li>Collaborate deeply with Product, Design, Research, and backend teams to translate ambiguous goals into durable systems and delightful experiences.</li><li>Help uphold the highest levels of safety, privacy, fairness, and policy compliance across monetization experiences.</li><li>Provide technical leadership through architectural reviews, mentoring, and setting engineering standards across iOS monetization foundations.</li></ul><h2>You might thrive in this role if you</h2><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li>Have 4+ years of professional software engineering experience with significant iOS ownership.</li><li>Have a proven track record shipping high-quality iOS apps in production for business-critical, reliability-sensitive systems.</li><li>Are fluent in Swift and experienced with Apple’s ecosystem (Xcode, SwiftUI).</li><li>Have owned complex mobile systems end-to-end (architecture, delivery, instrumentation, quality, and operations).</li><li>Care deeply about performance, security, privacy, and user experience, especially in flows involving identity and payments.</li><li>Thrive in 0→1 environments where systems, architecture, and user experiences must be defined from scratch.</li></ul>About OpenAIOpenAI is an AI research and deployment company dedicated to ensuring that general-purpose artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity.
