Voice Engineer
Sagepilot AI
Sagepilot AI, a Bengaluru startup, is hiring a Voice Engineer to own its voice stack end to end. The work is mostly greenfield and done directly with the founding team, which makes it unusually broad for a role that asks for only about a year of experience.
What the work involves
The engineer builds LiveKit-based media pipelines for AI and human call handling, wires SIP and PSTN integrations through Exotel and Plivo, and orchestrates speech-to-text and text-to-speech providers such as Deepgram, AssemblyAI, ElevenLabs and Cartesia with low-latency delivery. The role also covers AI-to-human transfer flows (warm transfers, hold logic, escalation), call routing (IVR, queue management, agent assignment, fallbacks), barge-in detection and turn-taking for natural conversation, and observability across the voice systems.
What the employer asks for
- About one year of experience per the listing header, with the ability to own production voice infrastructure.
- Practical exposure to real-time media, telephony integrations or speech APIs will matter more than years on paper.
Pay, location and application
The listing states INR 15-24 lakh per year with no equity, in office in Bengaluru. It was reposted about a week before this check on 4 November 2026, with the recruiter recently active.
