About the role
Backend engineer to build the real-time platform behind AI voice agents, focusing on session state, workflow execution, concurrency, and reliability across healthcare partners; role includes migrating to Rust and setting platform engineering standards.
Responsibilities
- Design and evolve the architecture of our real-time voice platform as we scale across healthcare partners and more complex workflows.
- Build the runtime and abstractions for session state, workflow execution, and model orchestration so product engineers can develop new flows.
- Make architectural tradeoffs across latency, concurrency, reliability, and cost, grounded in production behavior and load testing.
- Drive the migration to Rust, including service boundaries, runtime design, and rollout in production.
- Diagnose systemic performance and reliability problems, and address their root causes across our services and external dependencies.
- Set AI native engineering standards for platform changes, including design reviews, testing, observability, and production readiness.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with substantial experience building and operating real-time production backend systems.
- Strong experience designing, building, and operating high-load, latency-sensitive backend systems.
- A track record of leading substantial technical projects, making architecture decisions, and delivering them through production rollout.
- Deep understanding of concurrency, asynchronous execution, networking, and distributed systems failure modes.
- Experience diagnosing performance bottlenecks and reliability issues using production evidence.
- Ability to design abstractions and service boundaries that make other engineers more effective.
- Strong coding skills and sound judgment about when to build for scale and when to keep things simple.
