About The Role

Take2 AI is hiring a Senior Software Engineer with deep Voice AI expertise and strong backend engineering skills.

Our real-time voice agent pipeline already powers thousands of candidate conversations every month—now we’re scaling to millions. You’ll tackle challenges in low latency, high reliability, and large-scale architecture, shaping how our platform evolves as we grow.

This role is hands-on, highly technical, and perfect for someone who thrives in a startup environment, playing a key role from design through production with significant ownership over technical execution and direction.

In Terms of Experience

Required:

• 6+ years software engineering experience (backend or full stack)
• Bachelor’s in Computer Science or Computer Engineering
• Direct, hands-on experience integrating and optimizing STT, TTS, VAD, and LLMs for real-time voice agents
• Scaled and optimized voice pipelines for low latency, high availability, and real-time performance
• Designed and implemented agent orchestration, evaluation frameworks, and related tooling
• Shipped production AI applications with real-time inference, integrating ML models into live systems
• Built and operated distributed backend systems with monitoring and observability in place
• Strong proficiency in Python, JavaScript, Node.js, AWS, Kubernetes, Docker
• 2+ years at an early to mid-stage startup (Series B or lower)

Preferred:

• Experience self-hosting AI/ML models for use in voice AI pipelines, including tuning and optimizing them for performance and reliability
• Experience owning and operating distributed systems in high-throughput, streaming, low-latency environments, ensuring scalability, reliability, and performance under real-time constraints

What You’ll Do

• Own and scale the end-to-end voice agent pipeline that already powers thousands of monthly conversations—help us grow it to millions
• Select, integrate, and tune models for optimal latency, quality, and reliability
• Build orchestration logic, evaluation systems, and supporting backend services
• Ensure low latency, high availability, and scalability of voice agent infrastructure
• Collaborate closely with product and engineering to rapidly prototype and deliver features, playing a key role in driving the vision and evolution of our platform and product with significant ownership over technical execution and direction
