Coval Seed
Forward Deployed Engineer
San Francisco, CA On-site Added Jun 16
About the role
Coval is the simulation and evaluation platform for voice AI. We help companies answer: do their voice agents actually work? Not in a demo — at scale, in production, with real users. Nine people, backed by YC, closing six-figure enterprise deals with Fortune 500 companies, growing revenue 10x year over year.
You'll sit at the intersection of our product and our customers, deeply embedded with the teams building the most advanced voice AI agents in production today.
What you'll do: Build bridges — integrations, connectors, and quality-of-life features that make Coval click for a specific customer or use case. Hunt for friction — find the sharp edges and either fix them yourself or work with engineering. Shape the product roadmap — translate what you see in the field into what we build. Be a voice AI evaluation expert — develop opinionated eval strategies.
What we're looking for: You write code in Python and/or TypeScript, comfortable working across APIs, integrations, and customer-facing technical problems. You get energy from customers. You can zoom in on a specific technical problem and zoom back out to see the bigger picture. You move fast but know the difference between a smart experiment and technical debt.
Office: In-person in SoMa, San Francisco. Team comes from Waymo, Zoox, Apple, and Google.
