AI Humans combine the emotional intelligence of humans with the reach and reliability of machines, making them capable, trusted agents available 24/7, in every language, on our terms.
Imagine a friend who can discuss any topic with you. A personal trainer that adapts to your schedule. A fleet of medical assistants that can give every patient the attention they need. With Tavus, individuals, enterprises, and developers can all build AI Humans to connect, understand, and act with empathy at scale.
We’re a Series B company backed by world-class investors including Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, and Scale Venture Partners.
Be part of shaping a future where humans and machines truly understand each other.
THE ROLE
We’re looking for an AI Researcher to join our core AI team and push the boundaries of Foundation Multimodal Conversational Models. If you thrive in fast-moving startup environments, enjoy experimenting with new ideas, and love seeing your work come to life in production then you’ll feel right at home.
YOUR MISSION 🚀
- Conduct research on Large Multimodal Models in the context of Conversational Avatars (e.g. Neural Avatars, Talking-Heads).
- Develop methods to model both verbal and non-verbal aspects of conversation, adapting and controlling avatar behavior in real time, with low-latency.
- Experiment with fine-tuning, adaptation, and conditioning techniques to make AudioVisual Multimodal Models, more expressive, controllable, and task-specific.
- Partner with the Applied ML team to take research from prototype to production.
- Stay up to date with cutting-edge advancements — and help define what comes next.
YOU’LL BE GREAT AT THIS IF YOU HAVE:
- A PhD (or near completion) in a relevant field, or equivalent research experience.
- Hands-on experience with Large Multimodal Models and a strong foundation in generative (language) models. This could be in the context of tasks such as VQA, Audio/Video understanding tasks, captioning behavioral analysis, Translation tasks, Speech to Speech systems.
- Experience in fine-tuning/adapting VLMs for control, conditioning, or downstream tasks.
- Solid background in deep learning and foundation modes.
- Strong PyTorch skills and comfort building deep learning pipelines.
NICE-TO-HAVES
- Knowledge of large-scale model training and optimization.
- Experience in duplex-conversational model.
- Broader understanding of generative AI across modalities.
- Exposure to software development best practices.
- A flexible, experimental mindset i.e. comfortable working across research and engineering.
- (Bonus) Publications at EMNLP, COLING, NeurIPS, ICLR, CVPR, ICCV.

We’re a Series B company backed by world-class investors including Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, and Scale Venture Partners.
Be part of shaping a future where humans and machines truly understand each other.
THE ROLE
This isn’t a traditional engineering job. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you’ll split your time between two worlds:
- With customers (30–40%) — working hands-on to debug integrations, unblock adoption, and help them build amazing things with Tavus.
- With our product (the rest of the time) — building SDKs, prototypes, and enhancements to our core platform that make Tavus more powerful, intuitive, and delightful to use.
You’ll be the bridge between customers and engineering, turning real-world challenges into product improvements. Your mission is simple: ensure every developer and creator has a smooth, magical experience with Tavus — backed by great docs, guides, tools, and product enhancements.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
- Work directly with customers to debug, build POCs, and design solutions.
- Build prototypes, SDKs, sample apps, and tools that improve developer experience.
- Collect feedback, identify patterns, and translate them into product/engineering improvements.
- Partner on early feature adoption: test pre-release features with customers, gather feedback, suggest iterations.
- Help define how we develop a world class customer experience
WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT
- Extremely solid software engineering fundamentals.
- Deep curiosity about problems at every level of the stack, from ML to infrastructure to networking.
- The desire to work closely with end users to understand their problems.
- A good “PM hat” to see patterns in customer requests and use those patterns to inform product direction.
- A strong bias toward action and a founder mindset to keep going until a problem is truly solved.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
- Customers integrate Tavus faster and more reliably because of your support.
- Engineering ships changes directly informed by your field learnings.
- Prototypes and tools you build demonstrate new use cases and accelerate adoption.
- Product priorities are influenced by the patterns you uncover across customers.
- The challenge is providing world class customer experience as Tavus grows, while still feeling the customer’s pain and turning it into fast product improvements
BENEFITS & CULTURE
When you join Tavus, you’re joining a diverse and supportive team. Our work is driven by our people, and our success is shared by all. This position has a flexible work schedule, unlimited PTO, competitive healthcare, and gear stipends, as well as plenty of fun.
At the end of the day, we want Tavus to be a place for you to learn, directly drive impact, and work with a team you love. To learn more about our team culture and benefits, check out our hiring page https://www.tavus.io/careers.
Tavus is growing fast, and we’d like you to grow with us. If you’re excited to get your hands dirty and help make machines more human, drop your resume and we’ll be in touch.
We are not looking for cultural fits, we are looking for culture creators. Diversity is what drives our success – it’s at the core of how we hire, communicate, and work. We are inclusive to all and combine our diverse backgrounds, skill sets, and perspectives to build the best experiences for our clients.
