## Job description

ABOUT US:
Founded in 2020, Regal is the AI Agent Platform. Regal gives every company the tools to transform customer communications with delightful AI Agents that are connected to your data, easy to customize and monitor, always available, and ready to take action. Power better support, sales, and operations – with way less effort. Our founders, Alex Levin and Rebecca Greene, helped build Angi (Angie’s List, HomeAdvisor, and Handy) to over $1.5B in revenue.

Based in Manhattan, we’re building an in-person culture of entrepreneurs who want to win and build something meaningful. We’re backed by top investors including Founder Collective, Homebrew, and Emergence Capital.

Come join us as we create a category-defining company, and follow Regal's company page on LinkedIn to stay up-to-date on our journey and current job openings!

We’re moving fast, and the numbers speak for themselves:
- Partnered with enterprise brands like Google, AAA, Ro, Coursera
- Raised $82M (top tier investors including Emergence & Homebrew)
- Completed 500M+ calls
- Driven $7B revenue for customers
- Scaled to $##M ARR
- Built amazing NYC (Midtown) in office culture

ABOUT THE ROLE:
We're hiring a Director of Engineering to own two of our most technically challenging areas: the real-time systems that power every live call, and the applied AI research that determines how those calls sound and feel.
You'll lead two teams: one responsible for the real-time call delivery infrastructure that handles every live voice interaction at scale, and one doing proprietary model work on the problems that matter most to voice quality, end-of-utterance detection, voice activity detection, answering machine detection, and STT accuracy. These are active, production-impacting problems, not research projects.
This is the right role for someone comfortable at the intersection of applied AI and real-time systems, not a pure researcher, and not a pure product EM. You'll work closely with Regal's Staff+ AI Engineering lead as a peer and collaborator, and you'll have room to grow into broader engineering ownership as the team scales.

POSITION LOCATION & OFFICE DETAILS:

This position is only available in New York City (HQ- Midtown). Hybrid roles are required in office T/W/TH and office optional M/F.

*If you think you’re missing relevant experience but you’re hungry and a fast learner (and can prove it), we want to hear from you!

**Live in Regal AI’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
