What you’ll do

• Own core systems for real-time voice → intent → action workflows
• Design APIs/services for long-running, stateful agent tasks
• Ship user-facing features with strong quality and polish
• Improve reliability, observability, and performance as we scale
• Help set product direction and company culture as the team grows
