OpenAI is hiring for customer-facing engineering roles across Asia-Pacific, including a Codex-focused AI Deployment Engineer role in Delhi. (openai.com) The Delhi Codex posting says the hire will serve as the primary technical expert for customers using OpenAI’s coding product, helping engineering teams design and roll out AI-assisted software workflows. The role asks for 5+ years in post-sales engineering or solutions architecture. (openai.com) OpenAI has also posted a Solutions Engineer opening in Delhi focused on pre-sales work around ChatGPT and the OpenAI application programming interface, or API. That job includes handling customer security and compliance questions and feeding product feedback back to internal teams. (openai.com) The company’s careers search page currently lists 645 jobs and shows multiple Asia-Pacific technical success roles, including AI Deployment Engineer openings in Singapore, Tokyo, and Seoul. The same listings include APAC security and startup-facing roles, pointing to a broader regional buildout rather than a single-city hiring burst. (openai.com) Those jobs sit inside OpenAI’s “Technical Success” organization, the group that works with paying customers after models are built. In practice, that means OpenAI is hiring not just researchers, but staff who help companies deploy ChatGPT, APIs, and Codex in production. (openai.com) Codex is OpenAI’s coding-focused product line, and the company has been pushing it more visibly in 2026. OpenAI’s homepage now features recent Codex product posts and a customer case study saying Rakuten used Codex to fix issues faster. (openai.com) Outside observers have framed the hiring market around OpenAI as unusually broad. In a July 2025 post, developer Catalin Pit said companies were evaluating both “super senior” candidates and “super junior” applicants using AI tools to stand out in recruiting. (x.com) A separate post by Ajay on X highlighted the Delhi Codex and solutions engineering openings as signs of OpenAI’s hiring push in Asia-Pacific. The official careers pages now confirm those roles are live on OpenAI’s site. (x.com, openai.com) The immediate signal is straightforward: OpenAI is adding more people whose job is to help customers in Asia build with its tools, not just buy access to them. That usually means the company expects more enterprise work in the region, and soon. (openai.com, openai.com)
