About Wispr
Wispr is an AI research and product company building the voice interface for computing. AI can now reason, code, and act. Yet, humans still do the work of the interface. We think thatâs backwards.
Our first products are Flow, which lets you speak naturally in any application, and Notetaker, which builds context across conversations. Weâre building toward an interface that can perceive, understand, and take action with earned trust. That means solving hard problems across models, systems, and product - and caring about the final human experience as deeply as the technology underneath it.
Weâre a talent-dense team that holds strong opinions, tests them quickly, and builds technology that sparks joy. Our goal is to build the first voice interface used every day by a billion people.
About the role
Youâll own the architecture and reliability of Wispr on Windows. Youâll close its most important quality gaps, define how improvement is measured, and build foundations that make every Windows experience easier to ship correctly.
What youâll do
- Set technical direction for Windows architecture and native integrations
- Make onboarding, text insertion, screen context, and background behavior performant and reliable
- Solve difficult performance and correctness failures across devices and applications
- Define and improve the metrics that represent the Windows user experience, including activation, satisfaction, performance, retention, and support volume
- Build reusable systems that raise quality across the Windows product
You may be a fit if
- Youâve designed a client system or platform other engineers successfully built on
- Youâve recently shipped meaningful production code yourself
- You debug unfamiliar systems from first principles
- Youâve owned and improved metrics that represent the user experience
- You combine architectural judgment with attention to product quality
Deep Windows experience is a strong advantage, but not required. We care most about exceptional client-platform depth. Prior experience with voice, ML, or Electron is not required.
