Actively expanding into new financial services segments
Building together in person in San Francisco
We are deeply integrated with our customers, own the full technology stack, and move quickly to bring modern AI into regulated industries where precision, reliability, and performance matter.
About the Role
We are looking for a frontend focused Full Stack Engineer to build powerful, intuitive product experiences that help users understand and act on complex data.
You will primarily own our frontend systems and user experience while working across APIs, backend services, data models, and infrastructure when needed to deliver complete solutions. You will collaborate closely with product, design, AI, engineering, and customers to turn ambiguous problems into polished, production ready features.
This role requires more than strong execution. We are looking for someone who is highly proactive, takes full ownership of outcomes, and does not wait to be told what to do. You should naturally identify gaps, clarify ambiguity, surface risks early, and drive work forward across teams.
You will be an early and visible member of a small, fast moving engineering team, owning features from problem definition through launch and iteration, contributing to frontend architecture and product strategy, and helping shape the future of our products as we scale.
What You’ll Do
Own product features end to end, from initial problem definition through implementation, launch, adoption, and iteration
Design and implement responsive, performant user interfaces using React and TypeScript
Translate complex financial and operational workflows into simple, intuitive product experiences
Work across frontend applications, APIs, backend services, and data models to deliver complete solutions
Proactively identify product, usability, and technical gaps and drive them toward resolution
Work directly with customers and internal stakeholders to understand their workflows and uncover problems that may not yet have clearly defined requirements
Collaborate across product, design, AI, and engineering to make decisions and ship quickly
Help define frontend architecture and build reusable, scalable UI components
Integrate frontend applications with APIs, services, and AI driven workflows
Ship clean, testable, and maintainable code on a rapid release cycle
Monitor how your work performs in production and take responsibility for fixing issues and improving outcomes
Surface blockers, risks, and missed expectations early rather than waiting for them to become larger problems
Advocate for the customer in product and engineering discussions
What you’ll bring
4 or more years of experience building production software, with deep expertise in frontend development and experience working across the stack
Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, modern JavaScript, and frontend tooling
Experience building or integrating with APIs, backend services, and production data systems
Deep understanding of responsive design, browser performance, accessibility, and maintainable UI architecture
A strong sense of ownership. You take responsibility for the quality, delivery, and impact of your work
A highly proactive working style. You identify what needs to happen next and move it forward without waiting for detailed direction
A bias for action. You make thoughtful, pragmatic tradeoffs and maintain momentum in ambiguous situations
Strong product judgment and the ability to turn loosely defined customer problems into concrete solutions
A customer obsessed mindset. You engage with users, understand their workflows, and translate their pain points into product improvements
The ability to operate independently while collaborating closely with a fast moving team
A habit of communicating progress, risks, and tradeoffs clearly and early
High standards for quality without allowing perfectionism to prevent shipping
Comfort working in an environment where feedback comes directly from production users and enterprise partners
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Located in, or willing to relocate to, San Francisco

Building together in person in San Francisco
We are deeply integrated with our customers, own the full technology stack, and move quickly to bring modern AI into regulated industries where precision, reliability, and performance matter.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Member of Technical Staff to help build the speech and language models behind Salient’s production voice agents.
You’ll work on challenging problems in speech and language modeling. Many of these problems look solved in academic benchmarks, but remain deeply unsolved in real-world production.
This is a high-ownership role on a small, elite team. You’ll own core parts of the system end to end, and everything you do will have direct revenue impact.
What You’ll Do
Build and improve production speech models and systems with the ultimate goal of improving real-time conversational quality.
Post-train LLMs for voice agents used for consumer finance.
Develop evals, harnesses, and monitoring systems.
Work across models, data, infrastructure, and product to improve end-to-end agent quality.
Own major technical areas with significant autonomy, from problem definition to production deployment.
What We’re Looking For
Strong engineering fundamentals and ability to build reliable production systems.
Experience with speech modeling, or LLM post-training.
Familiarity with areas such as ASR, TTS, turn detection, speech enhancement, multilingual speech, LLM post-training, or model evaluation.
Ability to diagnose messy real-world model failures and turn them into practical improvements.
High ownership, strong execution speed, and comfort operating in ambiguous technical areas.
Prior experience in speech modeling and LLM post-training is ideal, but not required. We care more about slope, intensity, and technical ability than exact background.
Exceptional engineers who are highly driven and excited to work on hard AI problems are encouraged to apply!
Why Join
Work on the full stack of production voice AI.
Own and lead core product areas on a small, high-caliber team.
Ship improvements that affect millions of live conversations.
Tackle real-world speech problems that are still unsolved outside of benchmarks.
At Salient, we’re building at the edge of AI - fast, focused, and with real ownership. Sprints and major launches move quickly, and we look for people who are energized by that pace.
