• Implement best practices for observability, testing, and resilience (Datadog, Sentry, etc.).
• Collaborate with product and AI teams to evolve the platform’s multi-agent orchestration and automation layer.

• Experience building scalable, high-availability APIs or streaming systems.
• Familiarity with WebRTC, SIP, RTP, or other real-time communication protocols.
• Experience with cloud environments (GCP/AWS) and containerized deployments (Kubernetes, Docker).
• Sound understanding of databases (MongoDB, Redis, Postgres) and message queues (Kafka, Pub/Sub).

Good to Have

• Exposure to Voice AI, Speech Processing, or AI Agent frameworks.
• Experience integrating LLMs, vector DBs, or real-time AI inference systems.
• Prior work on AI-driven or telephony-driven platforms at scale.
