VP of Engineering - Rime.AI

Rime is a foundation modeling company that builds voice AI for enterprises running customer experiences at scale. Our models are purpose-built for high-volume conversational deployments, engineered for the accuracy, performance, and deployment flexibility that production environments actually demand. We started from a different premise than the rest of the field: build voice AI for human connection, not slop.

Before we trained a single model, we built our own corpus: full-duplex, studio-quality conversational speech of normal people, recorded and annotated by linguists. It's why our models are unparalleled in naturalism, and it's why enterprises pick Rime when pilots need to make it to production. Role Overview We're hiring Rime's first Technical Program Manager.

Engineering is growing and the coordination work — priorities, timelines, IC alignment, external triage — needs an owner. This isn't a process-management role. It's a role for someone who thinks in systems, can read a codebase, and wants to be in the room (and the repo) where technical decisions get made. You'll work directly with engineering leads, founders, and the modeling team to keep Rime moving in the same direction at the same time.
