At Tavus, we're building the human layer of AI. Our mission is to make human-AI interaction as natural as face-to-face interaction, enabling the human touch where it has been previously unscalable. We achieve this through pioneering research in multi-modal AI models for human perception and understanding, combined with state-of-the-art human avatar rendering and communication models. Our models power everything from text-to-video AI avatars to real-time conversational video experiences across industries like healthcare, recruiting, sales, education, and more. By enabling AI to see, hear, and communicate with human-like authenticity, we're creating the foundation for the next generation of AI employees, assistants, and companions.

We're a Series B company backed by top investors, including Sequoia, Y Combinator, and Scale VC. Join us in driving the future of human-AI interaction.

About Us

Tavus is a research lab pioneering human computing. We’re building AI Humans: a new interface that closes the gap between people and machines, free from the friction of today’s systems. Our real-time human simulation models let machines see, hear, respond, and even look real—enabling meaningful, face-to-face conversations. AI Humans combine the emotional intelligence of humans with the reach and reliability of machines, making them capable, trusted agents available 24/7, in every language, on our terms.

Imagine a therapist anyone can afford. A personal trainer who adapts to your schedule. A fleet of medical assistants that can give every patient the attention they need. With Tavus, individuals, enterprises, and developers can all build AI Humans to connect, understand, and act with empathy at scale.

We’re a Series B company backed by world-class investors including Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, and Scale Venture Partners.

Be part of shaping a future where humans and machines truly understand each other.

About Role:

• Work in massive ambiguity.
• Help run and define company-wide product management.
• Earn the respect of the engineering team, not just by speaking their language, but by operating in a way that inspires.
• Move extremely fast with a strong bias for execution. You consider yourself a world-class PM. Expectations are high, but so is impact and breadth.

What You Bring

• You understand the difference between 0→1 and 1+. Proven track record in both.

• You seek feedback, piece together information from every angle, form strong convictions, and execute - bringing the team with you, not behind you.
• World-class organization and communication are non-negotiable.
• Clarity of written thought rules all.

We're a Series B company creating the future of human interaction. You know what that means - and you have the raw skills and understand what it takes to manufacture and will success.
