Senior Software Engineer
Salary: $160K – $250K + Equity
Company Description: Series B backed multimodal AI lab
Job Description:
You will lead the technical development of a real-time conversational video interface, bridging the gap between human and machine communication. This hands-on role involves optimizing multimodal models for low latency, multilingual support, and natural interaction. You will collaborate with research teams to integrate state-of-the-art simulations into production-ready software for global enterprise applications.
Location: San Francisco, USA
Why this role is remarkable:
• Work at the forefront of human-computer interaction by building AI humans that see, hear, and respond in real-time.
• Join a well-funded Series B startup backed by top-tier VCs that is defining the conversational video interface category.
• Experience a high-impact environment where you can shape architecture and ship features that reach millions of users across multiple languages.
What you will do:
• Own the delivery of core features including voice localization, sentence endpointing, and naturalness optimization for real-time video.
• Partner with research teams to integrate sophisticated multimodal models into a reliable, high-uptime production codebase.
• Optimize system performance by centralizing inter-process communication and shaving latency off utterance turn-taking for smoother conversations.
The ideal candidate:
• Expert in Python with extensive experience in asynchronous frameworks, multiprocessing, and low-level system concepts.
• Proven track record of shipping polished, reliable software in ambiguous, fast-paced environments where the state-of-the-art evolves rapidly.
• Strong communicator who can simplify complex technical concepts and has experience with LLM frameworks or WebRTC video streaming.
