Evals Lead, scale speech ai

Lead Evaluation Engineer — Speech & Multimodal Models

How do you measure whether an AI voice truly sounds real — and prove it with data?

You’ll join an AI team developing large-scale speech and multimodal systems for real-time interaction — models that generate, clone, and understand voice with natural expression and precision.

This is a founding evaluation role, in a new dedicated Evals team defining how these models are measured, improved, and deployed safely ’ll design objective and subjective evaluation pipelines, run large-scale human studies, and build automated systems that turn perception into measurable signal.

Your work will span every stage of model development — from research to production — collaborating with speech, audio, and ML teams to close the loop between modelling, feedback, and user experience.

• Build and scale evaluation pipelines for TTS, voice conversion, and ASR systems
• Design human studies for subjective testing (e.g. MOS, ABX)
• Define and implement objective metrics (WER, intelligibility, naturalness, prosody)
• Automate evaluation dashboards and reporting systems
• Train auxiliary models to capture new evaluation dimensions
• Collaborate across data, model, and product teams to drive measurable improvement
• Establish and scale the evaluation function as the team grows

• Strong experience building or running eval systems for speech or multimodal models
• Familiarity with ASR, TTS, or voice cloning pipelines
• Experience designing user studies or subjective model evaluation
• Solid understanding of statistics and experimental design
• Proficiency in Python and ML frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face, etc.)
• Strong communication skills and cross-functional mindset

This is a rare chance to build the evaluation foundation for models already deployed globally — shaping how next-generation speech systems are measured and improved. You’ll have the autonomy to define standards, lead future hires, and see your work directly impact millions of real-world interactions.
