Why You Should Join Us
Plaud is building the next generation intelligence infrastructure and interfaces to capture, extract, and utilize intelligence from what people say, hear, see, and think.
Plaud is a bootstrapped, skyrocketing, profitable company with a $300M revenue run rate achieved in just three years.
Define the next-gen paradigm for human-AI interaction.
Gain exposure to cutting-edge AI for Pro tools and play a direct role in our global expansion.
Work with passionate teammates who value innovation, collaboration, and customer success.
Grow your career in a culture that champions continuous learning and fast career development.
Market-competitive compensation, global exposure, and a vibrant, creativity-fueled work atmosphere.
You would lead the engineering teams behind our core product: the apps that connect to Plaud devices and record conversations, AI transcription and summaries, shared workspaces and collaboration, and admin tools for business customers. Your teams work across the US and Asia, and you'd own how fast and how well we ship one product across hardware, mobile, web and desktop.
What you will do
Define and drive the engineering strategy for Plaud's core product: device connection and recording, AI transcription and summaries, shared workspaces and collaboration, admin tools for business customers, and later growth. Each team builds for every customer, from free users to large enterprises.
Lead, mentor and grow the engineering leads of every product team across the US and Asia, through hiring, coaching and a high bar for craft and delivery.
Own engineering velocity and quality across the product teams, shortening the path from idea to shipped feature on mobile, web, desktop and the device handoff.
Partner closely with Product, Design, Platform and Infrastructure to turn priorities into a single roadmap and dated commitments.
Establish clear end-to-end ownership, so every service, handoff and on-call rotation has one owning team, and teams run what they build.
Build an operating model for teams that span time zones, with written specs and a fixed daily overlap, and move each team toward a single time zone over time.
Drive AI-native engineering across every team, including evals in CI/CD, AI-assisted development and fast experiments on AI features.
Be the Platform team's main internal customer: use shared services instead of rebuilding them, and give regular feedback on what Platform delivers.
Resolve technical disputes between teams quickly and in writing.
Skills, qualifications and experience we look for
12+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years leading managers of multi-team product engineering organizations (40+ engineers).
Proven track record shipping consumer or prosumer products across mobile, web and desktop. Hardware-connected or AI-heavy products are highly preferred.
Demonstrated success leading distributed teams across the US and Asia, with a clear operating model for teams that span time zones.
Strong technical depth: able to review architectures, challenge estimates and unblock complex projects hands-on.
Experience shipping LLM-powered features in production, including prompts, retrieval, evals, and cost and quality tradeoffs.
Track record of raising delivery velocity while keeping quality and team health high, backed by metrics.
Excellent cross-functional collaboration and communication skills with Product, Design, executives and engineers.
What we offer
Meaningful Ownership An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) that gives a real stake in Plaud’s long-term success.
