The Role

At the heart of Sarvam’s conversational AI platform sits the system that lets our customers build, configure, deploy, and operate voice agents and campaigns — at scale. Today it handles 50M+ minutes of conversations every month, and it’s growing fast.

We’re looking for a Staff Engineer to own this system end-to-end. The data model. The APIs. The orchestration. The reliability. The performance. The standards we hold ourselves to. This is an IC role with the scope and authority of one — no people management, just the systems and the bar.
