About the role

  • The Applied AI team at Rilla is redefining how humans interact with machines-using voice, intelligence, and a whole new class of data.
  • Every day, you'll architect and ship AI-powered systems that make it possible for people to talk to Rilla like they would a human.

Responsibilities

  • If you want to build the products and systems for how billions of conversations in the real world are captured and indexed, Rilla is the place to do it.
  • You'll help build agents that operate natively on real-world audio, extract insights from conversations no one else can even access, and push the boundaries of what's possible in AI.

Requirements

  • Attempting to build a generational company, and the intensity required to do so
  • Familiarity with tools that power today's AI: eval frameworks, agent tooling, and prompt engineering

Skills

  • A voice-first interface that lets users command Rilla directly through natural speech
  • A search engine that uncovers business-critical insights from voice data that's never been searchable
  • We work primarily in Python and TypeScript, with FastAPI for API development
  • AI/ML technologies including PyTorch, OpenAI APIs, Baseten, and LiteLLM
  • Cloud infrastructure with AWS and LiveKit for real-time communications

  • An infinite learner. Someone who is relentless in their curiosity.
  • Experience building and deploying AI/LLM systems in production
