You will lead the development of a production-grade voice intelligence platform designed for complex, real-world environments. By bridging the gap between spoken conversation and structured data, you will build robust ASR pipelines and multi-tenant systems that solve critical operational challenges for distributed teams operating in high-noise, high-stakes physical settings.
Founding Engineer at well-funded Voice AI startup
We are looking for a Founding Engineer to join a well-funded AI startup in London.
