We're building the first voice interface a billion people use every day.
Our first product, Flow, lets you talk instead of type anywhere on your computer or phone, and turns messy speech into polished text that is ready to send. It's scaled from $2M → $50M in ARR in under 12 months with millions of users and thousands of enterprise customers. How we think →
The team is still small enough that every person shapes what gets built.
As a software engineer at Wispr, you’ll play a crucial role in building the first capable, habit forming voice interface that scales to a billion users. Members of our technical staff are responsible for prototyping and designing new features of our voice interface, building infrastructure to handle <500ms LLM inference for millions of requests from everywhere around the world, and scaling the personalization of our speech models and LLMs.
Build high-quality, tasteful product experiences across our native macOS and Windows apps, taking features from idea to shipped with strong attention to detail
Own entire product surfaces end-to-end, including the UI, the underlying logic, agentic harnesses, and backend services.
Obsess over the feel of the product: latency, animations, agentic quality - the small details that separate good software from great software
Use AI tools actively in your day-to-day work to move faster, prototype ideas quickly, and raise the quality of what you ship
Contribute to product decisions, not just execution — you have a point of view on what we should build and why
Raise the quality bar through code review, documentation, and engineering practices that the whole team benefits from
Strong experience building native applications on macOS, Windows, or a combination — you care about platform conventions and know how to work with them
You have high product taste: you notice when something feels off, and you know how to fix it
Comfortable working across the stack within a product surface — you don't stop at the UI layer if the problem goes deeper
You move fast and ship often; you have a bias for getting real things in front of users over waiting for perfection
You use AI coding tools fluently and have a point of view on how to get the most out of them
Experience with performance-sensitive UIs is a plus, as Wispr lives on top of every app a user has open and responsiveness is core to the experience
Bonus: experience building accessibility features, system-level integrations, or consumer products with strong user retention
Location. About 60% of the team is in San Francisco and the rest are remote, mostly US-based.
If you're in SF: you'll be in the office most days. We think the best work happens in person. Most of the team is here five days a week, and a few do three or four days depending on family or long commutes.
If you're remote: we're open to remote for some roles. We fly remote teammates to SF for three to four days a month.
Visa sponsorship. We sponsor visas: H1B, O1, EB1, L1, STEM + OPT, and more. We can't successfully sponsor for every role and every candidate, but if we make you an offer we'll make every reasonable effort, and we retain an immigration law firm to help.
We're a small, focused team that cares deeply about the quality of our work and the people we do it with. Here's what you can expect:
Equity on employee-friendly terms, including early exercise and extended exercise windows with a combination of ISOs and RSUs. Ask us for more details!
Health, dental and vision. We cover 100% of the premium on the Anthem Blue Cross Gold PPO, and 75% of premiums for dependents. (US)
401(k) with up to a 4% match. (US)
16 weeks of paid parental leave (12 weeks for non-birthing parent).
Flexible time off and company holidays.
All meals in the office, plus commuter benefits and relocation reimbursement if you’re moving to San Francisco.
A high-spec laptop, monitor, and a whisper-friendly microphone.
Regular team events and off-sites.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We’re designing how humans interact with AI, which makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
We are committed to ensuring a fair and accessible interview process. If you need any accommodations or adjustments, please let us know.
