Job Summary
What You’ll Be Doing
- Engineer intelligent customer experiences using production-grade voice and text bots.
- Build custom NLP and NLU models that power real-time conversations and call QA systems.
- Deploy end-to-end AI pipelines for speech-to-text (STT), text-to-speech (TTS), and generative AI use cases.
- Innovate for inclusion—develop language models that give voice to low-resource African languages.
- Own the tech stack—from APIs and model deployment to cloud integrations across Azure and more.
- Stay cutting-edge with ongoing research in LLMs, speech analytics, and Responsible AI.
Your Toolkit
- Languages: Python (a must), SQL, R, or Java
- Frameworks & Tools: TensorFlow, PyTorch, Hugging Face, Git, Docker, REST APIs
- Tech Concepts: NLP, LLMs, STT/TTS, QA systems, MLOps
- Bonus Points:
- Experience building bots in contact center or BPO environments
- Knowledge of African language data models
What We’re Looking For
- A problem-solver at heart with a knack for translating complex data into smart solutions
- Someone who communicates clearly with tech teams and business leaders
- A passionate learner, eager to explore new tools and technologies
- A self-starter who thrives in agile, collaborative squads
- Committed to ethical, scalable, human-centric AI
Minimum Requirements
- Honours Degree in AI, Computer Science, Data Science, or similar (Master’s is a bonus)
- 2-4+ years of experience building AI/NLP/LLM systems
- Hands-on experience building bots, speech tools, or AI-powered engagement systems
Why This Role Stands Out
- You’ll work on real-world AI projects, not prototypes that never see the light
- Join a tech-forward team building at scale, with impact across Africa and beyond
- Be part of a mission to democratize voice tech and AI in underrepresented languages
- Growth is not optional—it’s part of your job description
