Unusual provides a platform that enables brands to enhance their visibility within AI-generated answers and align AI model messaging with their own brand voice.
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 a Software Engineer to own the serving infrastructure that connects Rime's inference engines to the world. This role sits at the intersection of ML systems and cloud infrastructure — you'll work directly on model inference and cloud infrastructure to build, harden, and scale the systems that stream voice at real-time latency. As Rime moves toward its next-generation architecture, you'll be a core architect of how our models get served.
