We're driven by a desire to transform and modernize what's antiquated, automate the manual, and solve real-world problems through innovative connectivity solutions. As a testament to our success, we're proud to stand as a financially stable and profitable company. Our robust profitability allows us not only to invest in pioneering technologies but also to foster an environment of continuous learning and growth for our team. Our collective vision is a world where borderless connectivity fuels limitless innovation. By joining us, you can be part of laying the foundations for this interconnected future. We're currently seeking passionate individuals who are excited about the opportunity to contribute to an industry-shaping company while growing their own skills and careers. The Role We're looking for a highly technical Product Manager to own how developers discover, build on and grow with Telnyx. Telnyx operates a global infrastructure platform spanning communications, AI inference, GPUs, edge compute, databases and real-time applications. We've invested heavily in building the underlying infrastructure. Now we want to make it dramatically easier for developers to understand what's possible, build useful applications and get into production. This is a hands-on product role leading a small team of six engineers across Developer Relations and Product-Led Growth. We aren't looking for a traditional DevRel leader or someone whose primary skill is managing people. We want a strong engineer with excellent product judgment who understands developer experience, builds things personally and knows how to turn developer adoption into revenue. The Team You'll lead a team of six: three DevRel engineers (sample apps, open source, technical content and demos) and three PLG engineers (activation, AI agents and automation, self-service conversion and expansion). You'll report to the Chief Operating Officer. What you'll own Build applications developers actually want to use — Lead the DevRel team in building production-quality sample applications, integrations, templates and reference implementations on Telnyx. Publish them on GitHub, maintain them and make them easy for developers to deploy and extend. Turn those applications into compelling technical content, live demos and developer distribution. Drive product-led growth — Own the PLG operation responsible for moving developers from signup to meaningful usage and revenue. Use product telemetry, behavioral signals, AI agents and human intervention to identify friction, accelerate onboarding, improve conversion and expand self-service usage. Make the developer experience better — Get hands-on with our APIs, SDKs, documentation and infrastructure. Work directly with product engineering to identify and resolve the issues that make products difficult to use. Our reference applications should continuously test whether our products are genuinely ready for developers. Build AI-native growth systems — Work with Growth Engineering and RevOps to develop automated workflows for developer acquisition, onboarding, account intelligence, technical assistance and expansion. We believe small teams of excellent technical people supervising powerful automation can outperform much larger traditional GTM organizations. Connect the entire developer journey — Applications attract developers. Developers experiment with the platform. PLG helps them succeed. Production usage generates revenue. The feedback from that process improves our products and informs what we build next. You'll be accountable for making that system work. . What we're looking for A strong software engineering background. You should be comfortable building and debugging real applications, working with APIs, reading code and understanding complex infrastructure. Experience as a Technical Product Manager, founding engineer, technical founder or similar role with substantial personal responsibility for shipping software. Exceptional product judgment, particularly around developer tools, APIs, documentation, onboarding and usability. Familiarity with AI infrastructure, LLMs, inference, cloud platforms, real-time systems or developer infrastructure. Understanding of product-led growth, including developer acquisition, activation, conversion, retention and monetization. Ability to work with AI coding agents, automation frameworks, product analytics and modern developer tooling. Strong technical communication skills. You can explain complicated technologies clearly and recognize what makes a useful demonstration or reference application. Comfortable leading a small technical team while remaining deeply involved in the actual work. Experience at a developer infrastructure company is valuable. Experience personally building and growing something developers love is more important. How we'll measure success Your primary objective is growing developer-led revenue on Telnyx. We'll look at activated developers, production applications deployed, self-service conversion, usage expansion and retention. We'll also measure the adoption of our reference applications, how effectively our developer content attracts users and how quickly developers can get from signup to a working application. We care about applications developers actually use, not demos shipped for the sake of demos. We care about developers reaching production, not just generating signups. And we care about revenue, not vanity metrics. Who will thrive here Someone who would rather build a working prototype than spend a week debating a roadmap. Someone who notices a broken onboarding experience and immediately starts fixing it. Someone who understands both what makes infrastructure technically excellent and what makes developers want to use it. You should be capable of leading six very technical people because you have the engineering ability, product instincts and judgment to make everyone around you more effective. This is a builder's job, not a professional management job. We're looking for someone who can make Telnyx a platform developers genuinely love building on, and turn that into a meaningful business. #LI-RH1

Design and build multi-agent AI systems in Python to automate complex workflows and manage backend service lifecycles. | Requires 2+ years building production-grade AI agent systems with strong Python and container deployment skills. | About Telnyx Telnyx is an industry leader that's not just imagining the future of global connectivity—we're building it. From architecting and amplifying the reach of a private, global, multi-cloud IP network, to bringing hyperlocal edge technology right to your fingertips through intuitive APIs, we're shaping a new era of seamless interconnection between people, devices, and applications.

We're currently seeking passionate individuals who are excited about the opportunity to contribute to an industry-shaping company while growing their own skills and careers. About the Team The RevOps team owns the systems layer, operations & automation that supports Telnyx's growth engine. Historically, that meant administering GTM tools used by humans: Salesforce, marketing automation, enrichment vendors, routing, campaign workflows, reporting, and vendor integrations. That operating model is changing. Telnyx is increasingly building AI agents and automation that interact directly with the GTM stack. The systems team now needs to support both human-facing workflows and bot-facing infrastructure: clean data, reliable integrations, durable automations, documented process, and scalable operating patterns. About the Role We're looking for a Software Engineer who builds and operates the AI-native backend systems powering our go-to-market motion. You'll design multi-agent architectures, build reliable integrations across complex business systems, and own services end-to-end from prototype through production. The systems you build orchestrate LLM-powered agents that handle real business workflows — qualifying leads, generating emails, routing meetings, enriching contacts, and managing outbound campaigns. These are stateful, multi-step agent systems running on Kubernetes that make decisions, call tools, and interact with external APIs under real constraints: rate limits, token budgets, cost targets, and data quality issues. You'll partner with Engineering Leads and Technical Product Managers to understand the problem space, then translate those problems into well-architected, observable, and maintainable software. This isn't prompt engineering and it isn't gluing together SaaS tools - it's systems engineering with AI as a core primitive. This is a hands-on builder role with high ownership. You'll make architectural decisions, ship iteratively, debug production issues, and care deeply about what happens after code merges. Responsibilities Design and build multi-agent AI systems in Python that handle complex, multi-step business workflows - qualification, email generation, routing, enrichment, and outbound orchestration Architect model-agnostic abstraction layers that decouple business logic from LLM providers, enabling flexibility across Claude, GPT, and open-source models Build and operate backend services (FastAPI/Flask) deployed on Kubernetes with CI/CD, managing the full lifecycle from deployment configuration to production reliability Design tool-use patterns for AI agents - structured function calling, multi-step reasoning, state management across conversation turns, and graceful handling of model failures Build integrations across external systems (CRM, enrichment APIs, outreach platforms, Slack) with proper error handling, retries, rate limiting, and data contracts Instrument and monitor AI systems in production — build observability into agent behavior, track success rates, detect regressions, and debug non-deterministic failures Design and run experiments (A/B tests, prompt variations, model comparisons) with proper evaluation infrastructure to measure what's actually working Requirements 2+ years of software engineering experience building backend services in Python Production experience building multi-step AI agent systems — stateful workflows where models make decisions, call tools, and operate across multiple turns, not single-shot API wrappers Strong understanding of LLM internals as they affect system design: context window management, token budgets, cost/latency/capability tradeoffs across models, structured outputs, and strategies for handling hallucination and refusals Experience testing and evaluating non-deterministic AI systems — you understand that assert output == expected doesn't work and have built or used alternatives Solid software architecture fundamentals: API design, state management, fault tolerance, and graceful degradation when upstream services fail Production experience with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines Experience integrating with external APIs at scale — auth flows, rate limiting, retries, data normalization, and managing the operational complexity of multiple third-party dependencies Proficiency with SQL and data systems for building targeting, enrichment, and analytics pipelines Built observability into production systems — structured logging, tracing, alerting, and monitoring that you actually use to debug issues High ownership: you deploy your own code, investigate your own incidents, and close the loop between what you shipped and how it performs Nice to Have Experience with specific GTM/RevOps systems (Salesforce, Apollo, Lusha, enrichment providers) or similar complex business platforms Background in growth engineering, marketing automation, or revenue operations tooling Experience with Slack bot development or conversational AI interfaces Contributions to or experience with open-source AI agent frameworks Familiarity with ArgoCD, StatefulSets, or Kubernetes operations beyond basic deployments
