IVR Engineer – Real-Time Voice Pipeline at BairesDev

In this role, you'll build and operate production-grade conversational voice agents where sub-500ms latency is the baseline, not the goal. Working across the full real-time audio pipeline, you'll solve the hardest problems in voice AI, from barge-in handling to streaming coordination at scale. This is your opportunity to work at the cutting edge of real-time voice technology, shipping systems that users interact with in natural, responsive conversations.

What You'll Do

• Build and operate production conversational voice agents at scale.
• Optimize the full real-time audio pipeline to maintain sub-500ms latency.
• Implement VAD, turn-taking logic, and barge-in/interruption handling.
• Work across multiple languages and frameworks as the voice stack requires.
• Ensure reliability and performance of streaming coordination across STT, LLM, and TTS components.
  
  

What We Are Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering.
• Hands-on production experience building and operating conversational voice agents using platforms such as Vapi, Retell, ElevenLabs, LiveKit Agents, or Pipecat.
• Deep understanding of the real-time audio pipeline including VAD, turn-taking logic, barge-in/interruption handling, and streaming coordination across STT, LLM, and TTS with sub-500ms latency.
• Polyglot engineer comfortable across multiple languages, including Go and Python.
• Advanced proficiency in English.

• 100% remote work (from anywhere).
• Excellent compensation in USD or your local currency if preferred
• Hardware and software setup for you to work from home.
• Flexible hours: create your own schedule.

• Innovative and multicultural work environment: collaborate and learn from the global Top 1% of talent.
• Supportive environment with mentorship, promotions, skill development, and diverse growth opportunities.
