Job description
You will join Verso as a Founding Engineer to own systems end-to-end from infrastructure to product, with no strict boundaries - and help define engineering standards, observability, and the foundations of the team.
You will design and scale a coherent AI system end-to-end, at the intersection of agents, data, and product:
- An AI interviewer interacting with users at scale (voice & video), sustaining long-form conversations with high reliability
- Agent systems (state, memory, evaluation loops) orchestrating complex interactions
- Real-time and async pipelines transforming multimodal data (video, audio, text) into structured, actionable insights
- A client platform to explore these insights through an AI-native interface
- Data systems to structure, query, and reuse qualitative knowledge at scale
- Optimization of latency, cost, and performance across LLM, TTS, STT
- Reliability of long-running AI workflows in production
What makes this role unique
- You will build production-grade AI systems, not prototypes
- You will work on long-form, high-stakes interactions, not short prompts
- You will design systems where AI quality is as critical as system reliability
- You will operate at the intersection of AI, data, infrastructure, and product
Current stack
- Frontend: TypeScript, React, Tailwind, shadcn
- Backend: Python, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy
- Infra: Vercel, Railway, Supabase AWS
- AI: LLM orchestration, STT/TTS pipelines, eval systems (rapidly evolving)
Note: no need to necessarily master Python and Typescript, your coding agents do
Requirements
You want to build production-grade AI systems on messy, real-world data - not demosYou're comfortable owning systems end-to-end, from architecture to productionYou have experience with complex systems (real-time, data pipelines, or LLM-based products)You have strong intuition for trade-offs (latency, cost, quality, reliability)You're motivated by building an ambitious, category-defining company with long-term ownership - not just execution.Why joinCategory-defining shift: we're not improving research workflows - we're turning consumer understanding into a continuous system.Hard technical problems: production AI systems over rich, unstructured data (audio, video, text, structured), spanning both a B2C product (low latency, high scale, responsiveness) and a B2B platform (enterprise-grade reliability, security, and data integrity).Full ownership: you'll own architecture, product, and execution from day one, with direct impact on the company trajectory.Meaningful equity, * You have experience with complex systems (real-time, data pipelines, or LLM-based products)
- You have strong intuition for trade-offs (latency, cost, quality, reliability)
