Summary

Senior AI Voice & Automation Developer — Natural Conversational AI We are looking for an experienced **AI Voice and Automation Developer** to help improve and expand an existing AI-powered voice system. This is **not** a basic chatbot project and not simply an automated answering service. Our highest priority is creating a voice AI experience that feels **natural, responsive, intelligent, and conversational** — not robotic, scripted, or frustrating. The right developer should understand that excellent voice AI requires much more than connecting an LLM to a phone number. We are looking for someone who understands the entire system: voice, latency, prompting, memory, interruptions, tool calling, CRM integration, automation, and reliability. ## What We Need The AI voice system should be able to: * Carry on natural, fluid conversations. * Listen and respond to what the caller actually says. * Ask one question at a time instead of reading a questionnaire. * Remember information already provided during the conversation. * Avoid repeating questions unnecessarily. * Handle interruptions and barge-in naturally. * Handle pauses, hesitation, incomplete answers, and changes in direction. * Maintain context throughout longer conversations. * Respond correctly when callers provide information out of order. * Keep responses concise and conversational. * Minimize awkward delays between the caller and the AI. * Trigger external actions based on what happens during the conversation. * Save information into a CRM. * Send text messages and trigger automations. * Transfer or escalate calls when appropriate. * Recognize when it should stop handling something and involve a human. * Operate reliably in a real production environment. Our goal is **not to deceive people into believing the AI is human**.
