Software Engineer, HCI Labs

About Wispr

Wispr Flow is making it as effortless to interact with your devices as talking to a close friend.

Today, Wispr Flow is the first voice dictation platform people use more than their keyboards — because it understands you perfectly on the first try. It’s context-aware, personalized, and works anywhere you can type, on desktop or phone.

In 2026, in addition to dictation, we're focused on building native actions — an agentic framework that understands you, and works reliably.

We’re a team of AI researchers, designers, growth experts, and engineers rethinking human-computer interaction from the ground up. We value high-agency teammates who communicate openly, obsess over users, and sweat the details. We thrive on spirited debate, truth-seeking, and real-world impact.

We're grown our revenue +150% every quarter for the last 4 quarters, and have raised $81M from Tier 1 VC firms and other well-known angels.

About the Role

On the HCI Labs team at Wispr, we're building improved ways of doing I/O and multitasking on computers. Voice to text is the foundation of the voice input layer for next generation computing. The rest of the patters for how we handle input, output, and the ever increasing threads of work that people manage have not yet been invented.

We approach problems in several ways:

1. Experimentation with new interaction patterns (pragmatic building, not theory)

2. Grounding in habit formation and stickiness (what's the point of new HCI if nobody uses it?)

3. Starting with user problems and needs (user adoption requires understanding of the problems we're solving)

While there are many places focused on next gen / AI interaction, almost all of these approaches tend to be the "final solution" of an AI interface without helping solve people's problems today. By grounding in problems and retentive features, we can help people to gradually shift their behaviors to a new paradigm for interaction.

HCI Labs will be vague, experimental, researchy, and pragmatic in nature. We're looking for people comfortable with this ambiguity, who have a strong desire to experiment, observe their own usage of their prototypes, and rapidly discard and build new prototypes until they become sticky.

If you love working on these kinds of ambiguous, experimental problems and have keen product and HCI taste, we'd love to chat!
