About mia labs
Mia is the AI communication platform for car dealerships. We answer and act on every inbound call, text and web lead so dealers stop losing service appointments and sales to voicemail. Franchise dealers and some of the largest dealer groups in the country run on Mia.
About the role
We're hiring a Software Engineer (AI/ML) to work on our voice AI platform, the real-time pipeline of speech-to-text, LLM reasoning, and text-to-speech that powers every call. You'll work on latency, model quality, cost, and reliability across the full AI stack, and help shape which models and vendors we bet on. This is a deep, focused role on a small core product team, with direct mentorship from our AI lead.
What you'll do
- Build and improve the real-time voice AI pipeline: speech-to-text, conversational LLM orchestration, and text-to-speech, with hard latency targets (we hold P90 end-to-end latency under 2 seconds and are pushing lower).
- Improve model performance in production, run evals for core functionality
- Improve instrumentation (OTel/Braintrust), build dashboards and alerting
