About the role
Senior Full Stack Engineer (React / Next.js)
At some point in the future, every business will answer their phone with voice AI. We are making sure that when they build that AI agent, the experience of doing so doesn’t suck.
We’re growing incredibly fast and need someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-pressure environment to work across our engineering stack. This role is critical to the success of our company. We’re looking for someone who will roll up their sleeves, dig in, and double down when things get tough.
We want someone highly technical, driven, and fun to work with. You’ll be working directly with engineering, product, and customer-facing teams to build and ship fast.
NOTE: This is an engineering position. You will be writing a lot of code, and it will be a lot of work. If you’re looking for a cushy corporate job where nothing gets done, this is not the place. If you want to be part of a winning team and make a real difference, read on.
This role is in-office 5 days a week in San Francisco.
