About the role
- We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to be a technical driver on Tavus's Conversational Video Interface, our multimodal real-time conversational product.
- Your code runs in the middle of live conversations between people and PALs.
- Sometimes that means dipping into research territory yourself.
Responsibilities
- With Tavus, individuals, enterprises, and developers can all build AI Humans to connect, understand, and act with empathy at scale.
- We're a Series B company backed by world-class investors including Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, and Scale Venture Partners.
- Ship features end-to-end. You'll take product priorities that start out loosely defined, like voice localization for accent support or multilingual sentence endpointing, and turn them into a spec, an architecture, and shipped features.
- Partner with Research to bring state-of-the-art real-time models into CVI. Sometimes that means dipping into research territory yourself.
- You're autonomous. Given a loosely defined project, you figure out what "done" means, make the judgment calls, and deliver.
Requirements
- You've built real-time systems, whether video, audio, or model inference, and you know what a millisecond latency budget feels like.
- None of these are required, but they'd help.
- Experience with GPUs and GPU management
- Deep experience with video streaming over WebRTC
- Deep experience with LLMs and agentic frameworks
- Extensive experience with low-level systems
Benefits
- A fleet of medical assistants that can give every patient the attention they need.
