Founding Engineer
Asendia AI, Inc.
What You’ll Own Real‑time voice systems: AI phone interviews with sub‑300 ms latency using FastAPI, WebSockets, and LLM orchestration. Candidate scoring pipelines: Turning messy voice conversations into structured, reliable scores. ATS integrations: Two‑way syncs with Applicant Tracking Systems that enterprise clients depend on. Recruiter dashboards: React/Next.js interfaces where staffing teams manage workflows, analytics, and reports. Agentic infrastructure: A framework where every client customizes its own AI screening workflows and voice personalities. Cloud & scale: Azure (Functions, AKS, Cosmos DB), CI/CD, monitoring—scaling from hundreds to tens of thousands of concurrent sessions. Who We’re Looking For Shipped products end‑to‑end, solo or as the primary builder. Side projects, startups, open source—show what you’ve built. Strong across the stack: Python backend, React frontend, cloud infrastructure. You don’t wait for anyone to finish a feature. Product instinct: You talk to users, understand why something matters, and build accordingly. High agency: When there’s no documentation, no playbook, and a client deadline on Friday, you figure it out. Want ownership and equity, not just a paycheck. This is a founding role, not a senior engineer seat. Bonus Experience with voice/speech systems, NLP, LLMs, or real‑time streaming architectures. Not Required Specific number of years. We care about what you’ve built, not how long you’ve been building. #J-18808-Ljbffr Asendia AI, Inc.
