What You'll Do

• Own the Speech interface layer: real-time speech-to-intent pipeline using models like Whisper or Deepgram

• Build conversational UX flows for tasks like:

  • Load search and booking

  • Navigation and status updates

  • Voice journaling and micro-coaching

• Optimize for real-world conditions: noisy cabs, unreliable signal, driver interruptions

• Design fallback logic and graceful failure handling when voice commands are ambiguous or partial

• Develop personalization features to learn and adapt to each driver’s preferences, tone, and goals over time

Personalization Responsibilities

You’ll lead the design of systems that help the assistant become a

relationship-level tool, not just a command engine:

• Build a driver memory graph to store goals, language patterns, habits, and personality traits

• Develop logic for driver-specific intent recognition and natural phrasing (e.g., “get me home this weekend”)

• Implement adaptive prompting based on driver profile tags (e.g., preferred tone, motivational style)

• Enable the system to reference past conversations, track personal milestones, and make coaching feel deeply contextual and human

• Use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) or custom embeddings to let the assistant "remember" and evolve

Technologies You Might Use

• Speech: Whisper, Deepgram, Google Speech-to-Text

• NLU / LLMs: GPT-4o, Rasa, LangChain, custom intent parsers

• Frontend: React Native (for fallback UI), WebRTC, Twilio Voice

• Infra: Node.js, Python, Firebase, Supabase, Postgres, Pinecone

You Might Be a Fit If You

• Have built or contributed to voice or AI-driven products with personalization or memory features

• Understand the difference between "generic commands" and relationship-based coaching

• Know how to ship fast, but keep latency and UX top of mind

• Are excited to build tools that respect and elevate working-class users

• Are obsessed with human-first AI design
