About Dialpad
Dialpad is the AI-native business communications platform. We unify calling, messaging, meetings, and contact center on a single platform - powered by AI that understands every conversation in real time.

We’re now leading the shift to Agentic AI: intelligent agents that don’t just analyze conversations but take action by automating workflows, resolving customer issues, and accelerating revenue in real time. Our DAART initiative (Dialpad Agentic AI in Real Time) is redefining what a communications platform can do.

Being a Dialer
At Dialpad, AI isn’t just a feature; it’s how our teams do their best work every day. We put powerful AI tools in every employee’s hands so they can move faster, think bigger, and achieve more.

We believe every conversation matters. And we’ve built the platform that turns those conversations into insight and action, for our customers and ourselves.

We look for people who are intensely curious and hold themselves to a high bar. Our ambition is significant, and achieving it requires a team that operates at the highest level. We seek individuals who embody our core traits: Scrappy, Curious, Optimistic, Persistent, and Empathetic.

Your role
As an Applied Scientist at Dialpad, you'll be a key driver within our AI team, conducting R&D to power the next generation of autonomous voice agents. While traditional NLP focuses on analyzing static text, your work will center on real-time, multimodal systems that can listen, reason, and take action during live customer interactions. A major focus of the team is advancing DialpadGPT, our proprietary LLM, specifically optimizing it to drive orchestrated agentic workflows and handle complex task execution. Beyond the technical skills, we are a team that values collaboration, continuous learning, and the application of diverse perspectives to solve complex problems. Collaboration will be key as you work alongside our engineering, design, and product teams to build groundbreaking agentic applications.

If you're passionate about agentic and multimodal AI and contributing to a team that's changing the face of business communications, you'll find yourself right at home with us.

This position reports to the Senior Manager of the NLP team and has the opportunity to be based in Vancouver, BC.

What you’ll do

Research and develop state-of-the-art algorithms for autonomous voice agents, specifically focusing on real-time speech processing and reasoning loops.
