Tech Lead

$220k - $250k

David Joseph & Company

Job Description

Job Description

San Francisco, CA · On-site · Full-time Compensation: $220,000–$250,000 + 0.5%–1% equity

About the Company

Our client is a voice-AI platform that automates customer-support and appointment-scheduling calls across verticals including home improvement / remodeling, real estate, airlines, healthcare, and insurance, with a current focus on the home-improvement industry. It has doubled ARR in the first half of the year and is targeting another 2x in the second half. The team is split between Europe and San Francisco.

Founded 2023 · 1–10 people (Seed) · Industry: AI Tools / Voice AI

The Role

Lead the day-to-day running of a four-person engineering team (which includes the CTO) as a hands-on tech lead — owning architecture, prioritization, and engineering process while continuing to write code.

Tech stack: Full-stack applications, cloud / software architecture, LLMs.

Requirements
  • On-site in SF, Monday–Friday
  • 6+ years of engineering experience, most recently as a staff engineer, tech lead, or engineering manager
  • Hands-on engineering-team management experience
  • Full-stack and cloud/software-architecture depth, including LLMs
  • Conversational- or voice-AI company experience (a strong plus)
Nice to Haves
  • Startup pedigree at a high-caliber fintech or developer-tools company
  • Previous tech-lead or engineering-management experience at a conversational-AI company
  • CTO-level thinking paired with hands-on execution
Why Join
  • A CTO-track role: framed as a CTO-like next hire to take day-to-day engineering leadership off the CTO — described as one of the most important hires of the year
  • High-growth traction: doubled ARR in H1 and targeting another 2x in H2
  • Ownership plus hands-on: final say on prioritization and architecture while still contributing code 20–30% of the time
Details
  • Location — San Francisco, CA
  • Work policy — On-site, Monday–Friday
  • Compensation — $220,000–$250,000 + 0.5%–1% equity
  • Visa sponsorship — Not available
  • Employment type — Full-time
