RetellAI-API That Turns Your LLM Into A Human-Like Voice Agent

RetellAI Basics : Everything You Need to Start Building Voice Agents

Why This Company

Twenty years ago, every business needed a website—the new gateway to the world. Platforms like WordPress and Squarespace became the standard for going online.

Today, we're at the start of a new shift. Businesses relying on phone interactions can now have an AI voice agent of their dreams : a tireless, empathetic receptionist, salesperson, debt collector, or appointment reminder that works 24 / 7. Operational bottlenecks vanish overnight. Doubling your business no longer means doubling your team. Customer experience improves—no more calling East Coast banks after 3 p.m. PT. However, platforms don't currently exist for this.

At Retell, we're building the new standard for AI voice agents—offering a seamless UI, a comprehensive toolkit, effortless integrations, and a thriving builder community. We're creating everything businesses need for exceptional phone interactions on every call.

This shift is happening. Why not be part of the team that defines it?

Why This Role

This is an open-ended position for experienced founders who have been through the startup journey. If you understand startup culture, have faced challenges firsthand, and still love the process, this role is for you. You're adaptable, capable of wearing multiple hats, and have expertise in both technical and business aspects of startups. If this resonates, let's discuss the details on a call.

Position : TBD

Job type : Full-time, 70 hrs / week (50 hrs onsite with flexible hours + 20 hrs remote)

Salary : $150K - $310K

Equity : 0.1% - 1.0%

Bonus : $15K - $100K

Location : San Carlos, CA, US

US visas : Sponsors Visa & Green Card

Benefits : 100% medical, dental, vision coverage; unlimited meals and snacks; gym; daily commute reimbursement; internet and phone bill coverage.

Who You Are

  • True 0?1 Generalist : You've helped build startups from scratch and thrive in early stages. You can wear multiple hats—product, ops, tech, or growth.
  • Builder With Grit : You're energized by ambitious goals, long hours, and the thrill of solving problems. You handle priorities calmly and see tasks through to completion.
  • Founder-Minded : You move fast, own your work, and care about impact. You think strategically and love executing.
  • Adaptable & Quick Learner : You excel in fast-paced environments, embrace ambiguity, learn quickly, and pursue new challenges.
  • Clear Communicator : You speak up, align teams, and make tough decisions when needed. You collaborate effectively and seek buy-in.

Our Compensation Philosophy

  • Strongest Offer Upfront : We present our best offer initially—three options balancing cash and equity, so you choose what suits you.
  • Talent Density : We aim to build with the top 1%, offering above-market compensation to attract high performers.
  • Scale Through Code, Not Headcount : Our goal is over $1M revenue per employee, promoting smaller teams, fewer layers, and higher ownership.
  • Performance Over Background : Compensation is based solely on interview performance, not past salaries or titles. You can earn the top tier regardless of experience if you're ready.
  • Interview Process

  • Conversations With Co-Founders : Several focused discussions on product, technical skills, and cultural fit. We move quickly, transparently, and treat every candidate with respect.
