About the role

PlayAI (fka PlayHT, YC '23) is revolutionizing conversational AI with groundbreaking generative voice technology. Our advanced Speech Synthesis and Voice Cloning models enable businesses, developers, and creators to build hyperrealistic, human-like conversational experiences. We’re fundamentally reshaping how humans interact with technology.

Over the past year, we've raised $20M+ in seed funding, grown to 1M monthly active users and 250K developers, and seen revenue soar 30% month-over-month.

As a Product Engineer at PlayAI, you won't just build products—you'll craft delightful, engaging, and innovative AI-driven experiences that set new standards in human-computer interaction.

  • Team-Oriented Mindset : You balance shipping quickly with writing maintainable code that doesn’t create headaches for your teammates or your future self.

  • In-Person Collaboration : Our best work happens at our Palo Alto HQ—collaboration drives innovation.

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of software development experience, or equivalent demonstrated through personal projects.

  • Experience or eagerness to learn full-stack development:

  • Bonus: Experience directly interacting with users and incorporating their feedback.

  • Self-driven and proactive—our small, fast-moving team values initiative and growth mindset.

What We Offer

  • Opportunity to shape cutting-edge conversational AI products and collaborate with experienced engineers.

  • Fast-paced environment, providing exposure to product development, AI infrastructure, and systems.

  • Competitive compensation and equity.

  • Comprehensive benefits including health, dental, vision insurance, and flexible PTO.
