Job title

Staff Engineer

Location

San Francisco, CA (downtown)

Compensation

$250,000 – $320,000 base, plus competitive equity

Why this role

• Own architecture across an entire product at a company deploying AI voice agents with major U.S. mortgage lenders.
• Work directly with founders in a small team with no siloed functions.
• Ship quickly, with designs routinely reaching live production in days.
• Tackle difficult technical problems, including real-time systems, sub-700ms latency, and self-improving AI systems.

What you will do

• Architect and own core systems that power real-time AI voice and compliance workflows for major banks and mortgage lenders.
• Drive performance and reliability, targeting sub-700ms latency through event-driven architecture and parallel processing.
• Deploy, operate, and scale resilient distributed systems on Kubernetes.
• Lead features from whiteboard design through live production in bank environments, often shipping within days.
• Build and refine an AI system that improves with every customer interaction and human feedback signal.
• Design and optimize databases for correctness, scale, and performance under real-time load.
• Partner closely with founders and the engineering team across infrastructure, backend, and AI reliability.
• Build for fault tolerance and operational resilience in production systems serving regulated, high-stakes customers.

What we are looking for

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, with a preference for a top-tier program.
• 3–10 years of professional experience as a software engineer (at least 3 years; 4+ preferred).
• Proven track record of owning production backend services end-to-end.
• Experience shipping reliable production systems from design through deployment.
• Experience building high-performance, real-time backend or full-stack systems.
• Deep understanding of distributed systems, reliability, and fault tolerance.
• Excellent database design and performance optimization skills.
• Working familiarity with AI and large language models (LLMs); prior agent-building experience is not required.
• Comfortable owning architecture across the full product in a small, fast-moving, in-office team.

Benefits

• Trust-based culture with flexible hours.
• Open to visa transfers (e.g., OPT, H-1B transfers).
