About the Company

Come work for a venture-backed startup building a voice-driven AI platform for professionals navigating regulatory, legislative, and compliance complexity. This founding team brings experience from Datadog, Microsoft, the White House, and other top-tier organizations. They are already partnered with Fortune 500 clients.

The Role

They are hiring their first Infrastructure Engineer to join the core team of four engineers. You'll lead the effort in scaling distributed systems and orchestrating AI agents, working closely with engineers across ML, frontend, and infrastructure. The role combines deep backend engineering with modern AI integration.

What You'll Do

• Design service orchestration for multi-agent systems (e.g. MCP-like coordination)
• Optimize cloud systems for cost, latency, and reliability (cloud-agnostic preferred)
• Develop robust API layers and voice-processing pipelines
• Implement caching, monitoring, autoscaling, and fault-tolerant systems

You Should Have

• 3–6+ years of backend or infrastructure engineering experience
• Proven ability to build systems from scratch in high-stakes environments
• Strong cloud architecture skills (GCP a plus, but not required)
• Experience with distributed systems, real-time data, and API scalability
• Bonus: AI service orchestration, MLOps, or real-time audio processing experience

Why Join

• Small team, high ownership
• Zero fluff — build meaningful systems with experienced, mission-driven peers
• Equity upside from early-stage, Sequoia-backed company
• Opportunity to shape a next-generation AI product from the ground up
