Locations: San Francisco (11 roles), San Francisco or Remote (4 roles), and Remote (1 role), with 5 roles flagged remote; remote roles are not tied to a country in the postings. Location lines and remote flags do not always match, so check each posting.

How to use this

If you're applying: Sales and post-sales roles make up most openings, and several list LLMs, APIs or REST/JSON. Most sales roles opened in April and new postings have slowed, with one new role in the last 30 days. Check each posting's location line, since most are San Francisco only.

If you're selling or recruiting: Sales has 6 open roles across enterprise, mid-market and channel. The newest is an Enterprise Sales Director responsible for hiring and team structure, so sales hiring may continue under that leader. In Engineering, two roles are ML research on speech and multimodal models and one is infrastructure. The site and the partnerships posting point to regulated verticals: healthcare, insurance and financial services, plus travel and telecommunications.
