Cartesia
About Cartesia
Our mission is to build the next generation of AI: ubiquitous, interactive intelligence that runs wherever you are. Today, not even the best models can continuously process and reason over a year-long stream of audio, video and text—1B text tokens, 10B audio tokens and 1T video tokens—let alone do this on-device.
We're pioneering the model architectures that will make this possible. Our founding team met as PhDs at the Stanford AI Lab, where we invented State Space Models or SSMs, a new primitive for training efficient, large-scale foundation models. Our team combines deep expertise in model innovation and systems engineering paired with a design-minded product engineering team to build and ship cutting edge models and experiences.
We're funded by leading investors at Index Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners, along with Factory, Conviction, A Star, General Catalyst, SV Angel, Databricks and others. We're fortunate to have the support of many amazing advisors, and 90+ angels across many industries, including the world's foremost experts in AI.
About the Role We’re hiring a
Forward Deployed Engineer
to advance our mission of building real-time multimodal intelligence by delivering agentic voice AI solutions directly into production for our customers.
Your Impact:
Be the driving force behind customer deployments, taking AI solutions from early concept and pilot to production launch with enterprise-grade reliability
Translate cutting-edge AI capabilities into practical, high-performance systems tailored to real-world customer needs
Design and implement agentic voice AI solutions that integrate seamlessly into customer workflows and infrastructure
Prototype, iterate, and deploy AI-driven systems in close collaboration with enterprise customers
Work closely with our customers to define success criteria and ensure they achieve meaningful outcomes on Cartesia’s platform
You’ll have significant autonomy to shape customer solutions and directly impact how cutting-edge AI is deployed at scale across global organizations
What You Bring
Technical leadership with the ability to execute and deliver zero-to-one solutions in ambiguous, customer-driven environments
You have an eye for identifying customer problems and opportunities and can translate them into effective AI-powered solutions
Strong engineering skills enable you to rapidly prototype solutions end to end and evolve them into scalable, production-ready systems
You’re comfortable diving into new technologies and can quickly adapt your skills to our tech stack (Python on the backend, Go and TypeScript preferred)
You communicate complex technical concepts clearly and effectively, and you’re comfortable working directly with customers
You’re good at collaborating cross-functionally and translating customer feedback into actionable product and platform improvements
Our Culture We’re an in-person team based out of San Francisco. We love being in the office, hanging out together, and learning from each other every day.
We ship fast. All of our work is novel and cutting edge, and execution speed is paramount. We have a high bar, and we don’t sacrifice quality or design along the way.
We support each other. We have an open & inclusive culture that’s focused on giving everyone the resources they need to succeed.
