Developer Relations

About Cartesia

Our mission is to build the next generation of AI: ubiquitous, interactive intelligence that runs wherever you are. Today, not even the best models can continuously process and reason over a year-long stream of audio, video and text—1B text tokens, 10B audio tokens and 1T video tokens—let alone do this on-device.

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 seeking an exceptional Developer Relations expert to build and nurture Cartesia’s developer ecosystem from the ground up. You’ll be the bridge between our product, engineering, and community—helping developers unlock the full potential of Cartesia’s real-time voice and audio models.
