Job description

About this role

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.

SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X.

We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Grok Voice Product team builds seamless, world-class voice experiences for Grok across every platform and product surface. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, building, and shipping voice features across all surfaces. You will have the opportunity to collaborate across iOS, Android, and all product groups.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own backend engineering for scalable, low-latency voice infrastructure and model integrations.
  • Collaborate directly with Grok Voice model, media, and product teams to deliver end-to-end experiences.
  • Drive performance, reliability, and quality of voice interactions at global scale.
  • Move fast across platforms and product groups as a generalist.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • Proficiency in Python or Rust, with a strong track record of writing clean, efficient, maintainable, and scalable code.
  • Deep interest in voice/audio AI.
  • Strong generalist engineer with backend focus.
  • Hands-on experience shipping features on iOS and/or Android.
  • The ability to work across all product groups and do whatever it takes for best user experience.

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Background in AI-driven consumer products or media generation technologies.
  • Track record collaborating across engineering, research, and product teams to ship delightful features quickly.

COMPENSATION

AND BENEFITS
