Full Job Description
RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Lead and grow a team of 3-5 engineers, set expectations, support career development, and hold a high hiring bar
  • Own execution of the observability and evaluation roadmap: tooling that surfaces how voice agents are performing and frameworks that let teams evaluate agent quality systematically
  • Stay hands-on enough to jump into Python code, debug production issues, and make tactical contributions when needed
  • Partner with the other product teams to translate voice-agent quality signals into tooling and metrics that are actually actionable
  • Own the reliability and scalability of the team's integrations, the connections that link our systems to complex external and internal systems, and that need to scale as the business grows
  • Support the Copilot product roadmap in collaboration with Product
  • Remove blockers for your team, whether that means adjusting process, pairing on a hard debugging session, or resolving cross-functional friction
  • Be actively involved in hiring: sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding


WHAT YOU'LL OWN:

  • Observability tooling: Systems that give visibility into how voice agents are behaving in production, what's working, what's degrading, and why
  • Evaluation frameworks: Tooling that lets the org systematically evaluate and improve voice agent quality over time, rather than relying on ad hoc checks
  • Integrations: The complex external and internal integrations that connect our systems to the broader ecosystem, built to scale as usage grows
  • Copilot product: A customer-facing product that lets customers iterate on their voice agents easily, this is a product we ship, not an internal tool


ABOUT YOU:

  • 6+ years of experience in a relevant engineering role
  • 1-3 years of experience managing a team
  • Hands-on experience with Python and Typescript, you can still write and debug code at a senior level, even if you now do it less often
  • Solid experience with AWS, including services like Lambda and SQS, and streaming systems (e.g. Kinesis)
  • Comfortable managing ambiguity, this space (observability + eval for AI agents) is still being defined, and you'll help define it
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • A track record of mentoring engineers and helping them grow


NICE TO HAVE:

  • Experience with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or building agentic applications
  • Background in observability, monitoring, or evaluation tooling specifically
  • Experience working adjacent to applied AI or ML teams
  • Prior startup experience at the Series B-D stage


BENEFITS/PERKS

  • We care about your health!
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision plans - 80% covered by the company
  • Flexible PTO & 11 paid holidays/year
  • We care about future you!
  • 401k Plan
  • Paid parental leave
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits
  • We care about connection!
  • In-office breakfast and snacks daily
  • Happy hours, team outings, & annual off-sites
  • Complete laptop workstation
  • & more to come!
