About 11x

Most of what GTM teams do all day isn't selling. It's monotonous work like research, list-building, follow-ups, and data entry - things that should never have been a human job in the first place. 11x is building the AI platform for growth by automating the busywork so GTM teams can focus on what they do best: building relationships and closing deals. Backed by $75M+ from a16z and Benchmark, headquartered in San Francisco, and trusted by leading teams at Checkr, Xerox, Rillet, and much more. We're hiring ambitious people who want to define how the next generation of companies accelerate growth.

About the Role

As a Voice Agent Engineer, you’ll be the connective tissue between our GTM AI agents and real-world customer outcomes. AI is redefining the way people sell - and the Voice team is on the front lines of making that happen.

Location is flexible—we’re hiring in San Francisco (in-office) and remotely throughout the U.S. and Canada.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and iterate on fullstack systems that power AI agents from concept to deployment
• Research and evaluate new approaches to agent orchestration, prompting strategies, and model alignment
• Collaborate with product, design, and GTM teams to improve UX and usability for non-technical users
• Share learnings, document findings, and contribute to the evolution of internal best practices
• Participate in peer reviews, brainstorming sessions, and technical deep dives with our global team

Ideal Candidates Have

• 3+ years of experience in a product-oriented software engineering role
• A CS/Engineering degree & professional experience; bonus if you’ve worked in a startup, consulting, or customer-facing technical role before
• Strong programming fundamentals in Typescript, React, NextJS, and NodeJS
• Familiarity with APIs, data flows, and debugging live systems
• Interest in AI/ML, conversational AI, or voice technologies
• Responsive and proactive in addressing customer needs with bias for action - comfortable shipping quickly and improving continuously in live deployments

Base salary range: $180,000 – $200,000
