About the role

As an Applied AI Engineer, you'll embed directly with the largest brands in home services — learning how their businesses actually run, then designing and shipping the AI systems that run their front lines. This isn't a solutions role where you hand off specs and stop coding: you own the build end-to-end, from the first customer conversation to a live deployment handling real call volume.

More about this role

Avoca is transforming how home service companies engage with their customers. Our AI-powered conversational agents handle every high-value inbound call, from booking jobs, qualifying leads, and driving higher revenue, all at a speed and consistency unmatched by human call centers.
