Founding Solutions Engineer, Pre-Sales

Our mission is to architect AI that learns from and interacts with the world like humans do.

We're pioneering the model architectures that will make this possible. Our founding team met as PhDs at the Stanford AI Lab, where we invented State Space Models or SSMs, a new primitive for training efficient, large-scale foundation models. Our team combines deep expertise in model innovation and systems engineering paired with a design-minded product engineering team to build and ship cutting edge models and experiences.

We're funded by leading investors at Index Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners, along with Factory, Conviction, A Star, General Catalyst, SV Angel, Databricks and others. We're fortunate to have the support of many amazing advisors, and 90+ angels across many industries, including the world's foremost experts in AI.

We’re hiring our first Solutions Engineer to help turn Cartesia’s voice AI infrastructure into enterprise adoption.
Our customers are building real-time voice agents, call automation systems, and AI workflows that depend on low latency, reliability, and production-grade integration.
As a Solutions Engineer, you will partner closely with Account Executives to lead the technical side of strategic deals — from initial discovery through proof-of-concept and technical validation.

You will operate at the intersection of engineering and go-to-market, translating customer workflows and infrastructure constraints into clear architectural paths forward.

This is a high-agency, hands-on role. You’ll write code, build demos, prototype integrations, and run technical deep dives with engineering leaders. You won’t inherit a mature playbook — you’ll help build it by creating demo environments, documentation, and repeatable processes that scale as we grow.

Solutions Engineers are critical to our growth: deals close because the architecture is sound, the integration works, and the customer trusts us to power real-time systems in production.
