Responsibilities

Lead and grow a team of 3-5 engineers, set expectations, support career development, and hold a high hiring bar
Own execution of the observability and evaluation roadmap: tooling that surfaces how voice agents are performing and frameworks that let teams evaluate agent quality systematically
Stay hands-on enough to jump into Python code, debug production issues, and make tactical contributions when needed
Partner with the other product teams to translate voice-agent quality signals into tooling and metrics that are actually actionable
Own the reliability and scalability of the team's integrations, the connections that link our systems to complex external and internal systems, and that need to scale as the business grows
Support the Copilot product roadmap in collaboration with Product
Remove blockers for your team, whether that means adjusting process, pairing on a hard debugging session, or resolving cross-functional friction
Be actively involved in hiring: sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding
