About AssemblyAI

Conduire l'expérience des agents. Considérez les agents de codage comme un utilisateur de première classe d'AssemblyAI, aux côtés des humains qui utilisent notre tableau de bord et notre Playground.

Responsibilities

  • Construire et maintenir les compétences des agents. Expédier des compétences pour nos produits de base (Speech-to-Text, Real-time, Dictation, Voice Agents, TTS, LLM Gateway) qui enseignent aux agents comment nous intégrer correctement.
  • Mesurer l'expérience des agents. Construire des évaluations et des benchmarks qui exécutent de véritables agents de codage contre de réelles tâches d'intégration. Suivre le taux de réussite, le temps jusqu'à l'appel de travail.

Requirements

  • Some hands-on experience writing prompts, skills, tool definitions or agent instructions, at work or side projects, and an interest in measuring them with evals rather than vibes
  • Daily, hands-on use of coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor or Codex, and real curiosity about what makes them succeed or fail
  • Product sense for developer-facing work. You care whether the developer, or their agent, actually gets to a working integration
  • 2+ years of professional software engineering experience, with solid full-stack fundamentals (Javascript and/or Python)
  • Clear technical writing. Much of this role is writing that agents and humans both read
  • Comfort with ambiguity and a bias to ship. AX is a new discipline, and you'll learn it and help define it alongside us
  • Working knowledge of MCP, LLM tool calling, and how agents read docs and APIs
  • Developer relations, docs engineering, or SDK experience at an API-first company
  • You've built or contributed to an MCP server, agent skill library, or coding agent plugin
  • You've shipped something that agents use in the wild, and can show us the before and after

Preferred

  • Experience with Voice AI, speech-to-text, or LLM APIs
