Senior Multi-Modal MLE

Tavus are building the human layer of AI. Their mission is to make human-AI interaction as natural as face-to-face interaction, enabling the human touch where it has been previously unscalable.

This will be achieved through pioneering research in multi-modal AI models for human perception and understanding, combined with state-of-the-art human avatar rendering and conversation models that Tavus make accessible to developers worldwide. Their models and APIs power everything from text-to-video AI avatars to real-time conversational video experiences across industries like healthcare, recruiting, sales, education, and more.

By enabling AI to see, hear, and communicate with human-like authenticity, Tavus are creating the foundation for developers to create the next generation of AI employees, assistants, and companions.
