Role
Who you are
- You're genuinely comfortable across the stack — not a frontend dev who can "do backend" or vice versa. You've built and shipped real features. You take ownership, communicate clearly, and don't need hand-holding
- AI interest is a plus, but we'd rather have a strong fullstack engineer who's curious than an "AI enthusiast" who can't ship
- Ownership — you see things through
- Collaboration — you work well with others and communicate proactively
- Adaptability — comfortable with ambiguity and changing requirements
- Growth mindset — eager to learn, takes feedback well
- Core (you should know this well):
- React 18+, Next.js 15+, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Prisma, TanStack Query, Docker, Kubernetes
Desirable
- LLM integration, LangChain/LangGraph RAG/Embeddings, Vector Databases, MCP, WebSockets, WebRTC, Radix UI, Shadcn UI, Framer Motion
What the job involves
- The AI Integrations team builds the tools that bring AI into Telnyx's core products — think voice agents, intelligent messaging, and real-time AI features that improve our customer experience. We need a strong fullstack engineer to help us move faster
- This is a mid-level IC role. You'll own features end-to-end: building React interfaces, writing Node.js services, wiring up databases, and shipping things that work. AI experience isn't required — you'll pick that up here. What matters is that you can build solid fullstack products and want to learn
- What You'll Work On:
- Fullstack features across our AI product suite — frontend to database
- Integrating LLMs and AI capabilities into real world applications (with support from the team)
- Building interfaces that make complex AI tools feel simple
- Shipping iteratively — we value working software over perfect plans
- This is a full time role, you will need to be able to commit to 40 hours per week (Mon-Friday) at minimum
Our take
The telecommunications landscape is changing rapidly, as more companies migrate from traditional telephone communication to digital conferencing platforms and instant messaging. However, existing digital communication platforms usually come with connection issues, and combating this through bespoke solutions comes with employing expensive software engineers.
Telnyx develops cloud-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services for enterprises in the form of APIs, providing tools for the rapid development of bespoke applications for SMS and MMS messaging, WhatsApp communication, voice calls, IoT communications and verification, and elastic SIP trunking. The company claims that it ensures high speeds, reduced latency, and flawless connections through its tier-1 interconnections with major global internet hubs.
Whilst many other startups are providing VoIP solutions, Telnyx has taken a unique approach by developing APIs that allow enterprises to design their own next-gen digital communication service. This is complemented by the company’s tier-1 interconnects, detailed API documentation, and integrated dashboard, ultimately providing an end-to-end solution for cutting-edge wireless communications.
