Position: Voice AI Engineer
Remote working policy: Fully on-site in Berlin, Germany
Employment type: Full-time
Salary guide: €85,000-€160,000 annually, depending on experience, plus equity

Relocation support is available, including help finding an apartment. Visa sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate.

About the company:
Our client is a venture-backed German AI company helping businesses build, deploy and improve customer-facing voice agents. Its platform enables more natural conversations, replacing rigid phone menus and helping customers get useful answers without repeating themselves.

You’ll join a small team building the systems behind these conversations, with the opportunity to influence core infrastructure as the platform grows.

About the role:
If you enjoy figuring out why a distributed system breaks under pressure, making real-time software respond faster and exploring what AI models can actually deliver, this role offers plenty to work on.

You’ll own critical parts of the infrastructure behind AI voice agents, taking technical problems from investigation through implementation and production. The challenge is to build towards millions of daily calls while keeping conversations responsive and systems reliable.

You’ll have room to make architectural decisions, evaluate models and see how your work affects real customer interactions. Strong backend and distributed systems experience matters more than already being a voice AI specialist.

What you’ll get to build and influence:

Design and improve the distributed systems supporting customer-facing AI voice agents

Own critical infrastructure, from technical decisions through deployment and ongoing improvement

Solve reliability, scalability and latency challenges in real-time customer conversations

Evaluate AI models and understand their trade-offs in practical use

Investigate production issues and turn what you learn into better systems

Work closely with other engineers, including pairing to tackle unfamiliar problems

Use AI tools to accelerate development, experimentation and problem-solving

Help shape the platform as its customer needs and agent capabilities evolve

What we’re looking for:

Strong hands-on software engineering skills and experience shipping production systems

Experience building or debugging reliable, scalable distributed systems

Practical understanding of real-time or low-latency infrastructure

Evidence of taking substantial technical work from an unclear problem to a working solution

The ability to explain your individual contribution and its impact

Independent initiative demonstrated through projects, ventures or significant ownership at work

A practical approach to balancing delivery speed, reliability and customer outcomes

Regular use of AI tools and a willingness to explore unfamiliar technology

A collaborative approach and comfort working closely with colleagues in person

Willingness to work fully on-site in Berlin

Python is part of the core stack. Experience with voice AI, LLMs, speech recognition, speech synthesis or telephony would be valuable, but previous voice AI experience is not essential.

Why join our client?

Take ownership of core infrastructure in a small engineering team

Develop expertise at the intersection of distributed systems, real-time software and applied AI

Make technical decisions with a direct connection to customer experience

Work across engineering and model evaluation rather than a narrowly defined component

Participate in the company’s growth through an equity package

Working environment:
The team works in person, collaborates closely and favours rapid experimentation and lightweight engineering processes. You should enjoy taking initiative, making decisions with incomplete information and improving systems as you learn.

This is a demanding startup environment with expectations beyond a regular 9-to-5 schedule. It suits someone who wants to immerse themselves in building and delivering a product.

Benefits:

€85,000-€160,000 annual salary, depending on experience, plus equity

Access to AI tools to support your work

Relocation support, including apartment-finding assistance

Urban Sports Club membership

Dinner provided when working late

Visa sponsorship considered for suitable candidates

Location:
Berlin, Germany. This is a fully on-site position.
