Software Engineer

New York

REPORTING TO: Chief Technology Officer

LOCATION: NYC (Onsite M-F)

Who The Flip Is Flip?

Ever have a bad experience calling customer service? We're changing that!

Flip replaces old customer service phone robots with a modern voice AI experience for over 200 of your favorite brands on the planet. We support companies within eCommerce and Transportation and have another vertical in incubator stages. Our software talks to millions of people weekly and has helped 200M+ callers so far.

Our growth is inevitable as only 1% of companies have adopted this technology today and yet everyone agrees it is obvious. We aim to lead this change and focus on winning within our verticals, one at a time. 

Flip is a profitable, fast-growing and a well-funded 40-person startup. We are in-office, with spaces in NYC, LA, and the UK. Our team is the most important and best thing we’ve built.

What You’ll Do

We are looking for a few great product engineers (backend software engineers that love building products) to join us in creating the next generation of our over-the-phone voice assistant. 

At Flip, you'll create user experiences, features, and oversee whole segments of the Flip assistant. You'll also get into the data, listen to our customers, and help shape the direction of the product. We have a few excellent senior engineers already on the team, one of which will become your direct mentor!

Who You Are, As An Engineer

  • Good on the backend, especially with your Python experience - we're almost all backend here, because voice products have no GUI!
  • Your engineering level: early mid-level up to 'nearing senior in a year or two'
  • The product is what we're working on - not theoretical engineering perfection! :) 
  • You care about the customer

Who You Are, As A Person

  • Looking to go all-in, learn a lot, and do the best work of your career (so far!)
  • Put in the time, and put out work you're proud of
  • Communicate well, and embrace ownership, speed, & occasional uncertainty
  • Eager and willing to support your teammates - just like they will with you!

Bonuses

  • Know what it looks like to work at a startup, and have an entrepreneurial drive
  • Experience building Voice products - but we can teach you this too :)
  • Work onsite in our NYC office! Our NYC office has a blend of Product, Engineering, Customer Success and GTM 

More About Us

  • We're international, spanning the US, UK, and Canada
  • Our tech stack includes Python, MongoDB, AWS, Twilio, Datadog, Snowflake, and Omni
  • We are backed by ScOp Venture Capital, Bullpen Capital, and Forum Ventures, as well as founders & executives from Amazon Alexa, Ada, Attentive, and Simon
  • Comprehensive healthcare and unlimited vacation, including a mandatory half week for everyone over July 4, and a full week off at the end of the year

Our customers span the globe, and so do our offices. Flip is committed to providing equal employment opportunities for all employees, applicants, and covered individuals regardless of protected characteristics. We want our company to be as diverse and inclusive as our customers.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
