Founding Engineer – AI Voice Startup

On-site (5 days/week) | Series A | World-Class Team

We’re partnering with a category-defining AI voice startup that has just raised a strong Series A from top-tier investors. The company is building core infrastructure and product in the AI voice space, with real traction and ambitious plans to scale fast.

They’re now looking for Founding Engineers to join the core team and help shape both the product and the company from an early stage.

 

The Opportunity

 

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll work directly with the founders and senior leadership to:

  • Design and build core AI voice products from the ground up

  • Take ownership of critical systems end-to-end

  • Ship production-grade LLM-powered features used by real customers

  • Make foundational technical and product decisions that will last years

  • Operate with startup-level speed, responsibility, and ambiguity

This is a hands-on role for engineers who want genuine influence and aren’t afraid of ownership.

 

Tech Stack

  • Python and/or TypeScript

  • LLM-based systems (prompting, orchestration, evaluation, deployment)

  • Modern cloud-native infrastructure

  • Real-time / voice / AI-adjacent systems (experience here is a plus, not a must)

 

Who They’re Looking For

 

  • Highly experienced engineers, ideally ex-founding engineers or ex-founders

  • Proven track record of building and shipping LLM-based products in production

  • Strong system design skills and sound engineering judgement

  • Comfortable operating without heavy process or hierarchy

  • Product-minded, commercially aware, and execution-focused

 

Culture & Team

 

  • World-class founders with deep technical and commercial backgrounds

  • Small, elite engineering team with very high hiring bar

  • In-office, 5 days per week – collaboration and speed matter

  • High trust, high standards, zero politics

 

Why Join

 

  • Founding-level impact without starting from zero

  • Equity upside at a meaningful stage (post–Series A)

  • Build cutting-edge AI voice technology with real-world use cases

  • Work alongside exceptional engineers and operators

  • Opportunity to grow into senior technical or leadership roles as the company scales
