About the Role

This is a senior, hands-on engineering role at the heart of our product team. You will be one of the most technical people in the room — setting the architecture for our real-time voice AI

agents and building the hardest parts of it yourself. From the systems that power live conversations to the interfaces our clients rely on, you will own how the product is engineered end to end.

We are looking for a genuine lead full-stack engineer with the depth to make architecture decisions that hold up as we scale, and the appetite to still be in the code every day. You should be as comfortable designing the backend services behind a live voice agent as you are shaping a clean interface on top of them — and comfortable being the person others turn to when something is hard.

You will work directly with the founder and product leadership on a fast-moving product, with real influence over technical direction. This is a role for someone who wants ownership at the level of "how the whole thing is built," not just individual features — and who raises the bar for

everyone around them.

What You'll Own

Set the technical direction

• Own the architecture of our core systems — the real-time voice agents, backend
• services, data and APIs — making the decisions that keep the product fast, reliable and scalable as it grows.
• Lead the hardest engineering problems and solve them personally.
• Establish engineering standards — code quality, review practices, testing and technical patterns that the team builds to.
• Drive technical strategy with the founder and product leadership — shaping the roadmap, flagging risk early, and turning product ambition into a sound technical plan.

Build the product end to end

• Design, build and ship features across the stack — backend services, APIs and front-ends — owning them from idea to production.
• Build the client-facing surfaces — dashboards, review tools and configuration interfaces that let our clients run and trust the product.
• Design and evolve the data models and APIs that hold up as we scale across clients.

Make it reliable and fast

• Own production quality — put the monitoring and alerting in place so issues are caught before clients feel them, and performance stays within target.
• Care about performance — find and fix bottlenecks across the stack.
• Build for correctness — put the testing and evaluation in place that keeps the product behaving predictably as it changes.

Lead through the team

• Mentor and grow engineers — through code review, pairing, and setting a technical example others learn from.
• Multiply the team's output — unblock others and lift the overall quality of the codebase.
• Take features from ambiguity to done — turn a rough product goal into a shipped, working capability with minimal hand-holding, and help others do the same.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with significant depth across backend and a track record of owning systems, not just features.
• Strong backend engineering, ideally in Python — building and scaling production services and APIs..
• Proven architecture and system-design ability — you have designed systems that scaled, and can reason clearly about trade-offs.
• Solid fundamentals across APIs, databases and cloud infrastructure.
• Experience building real-time and/or AI-powered products — or clear, demonstrable ability to lead in this area.
• A history of technical leadership — setting standards, mentoring engineers, and being trusted with the hardest problems — while remaining hands-on.
• Excellent communication and a genuine ownership mindset — someone who can be handed an ambiguous, high-stakes problem and be trusted to see it through.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with AI / large language models in production.
• Experience with voice or other real-time products.
• Exposure to healthcare, fintech, or other regulated / high-stakes domains.
• Experience as an early or senior engineer in a startup, where you set direction and wore many hats.
