Job description
About River
River builds AI voice agents that sell for B2B SaaS companies. Our agent qualifies prospects, handles hard questions, and demos the product live in a browser while it talks. We just closed our pre-seed (backed by the founders of Ramp, Kalshi, and JumpCloud) and have paying customers.
The role
You'll build River's agent: how it listens, reasons, calls tools, drives a browser, and handles a buyer who goes off script. You'll join a small founding team and work directly with the founders.
What we look for
3+ years shipping software, with senior or founding-level ownership of a product in production
You've shipped agents real people relied on, and can walk us through what broke
You've built agent capabilities beyond off-the-shelf tools: tool use, memory, planning
You find the problem, propose the fix, and ship it
Nice to have: voice or real-time (WebRTC, streaming), browser automation, a startup of your own.
The details
In person in New York, relocation supported
$160K to $220K base, around 1% equity
US work authorization required; no visa sponsorship
To stand out: send us the agent you're proudest of and the hardest thing that broke. A link beats a cover letter.
