About the Role
Join an early-stage SaaS team as its founding AI engineer, building the core of a real-time AI voice agent for sales. You will own the agent's technical direction and help turn customer conversations into a dependable product.
What You'll Do
Build the agent's reasoning, tool use, and memory, including its ability to recover when live conversations go off script while meeting latency requirements.
Develop evaluation pipelines and data workflows that use real sales conversations to measure and improve agent performance, including fine-tuning where useful.
Improve the reliability of browser automation so the agent can demonstrate products in a live browser while speaking with buyers.
Ship end-to-end product work with TypeScript, Node.js, and Next.js, collaborating directly with customers and design partners.
Set technical direction for model and tooling choices, and define the agent's next capabilities.
What We're Looking For
Four to seven years of experience as an AI engineer, including at least one year owning a user-facing AI agent in production.
Experience shipping agents end to end, including evaluation, observability, and cost optimization.
At least one year working with real-time voice technologies such as WebRTC or LiveKit, or browser agents and automation such as Playwright.
Proficiency in TypeScript, Node.js, and Next.js, with experience using LLM APIs and AI agent systems.
Background in voice AI, AI sales, browser agents, or a fast-growing AI company; sales technology or go-to-market tooling experience is useful.
Experience building with customers or design partners and a track record of sustained tenure in recent roles.
