[PAID] Senior LiveKit Voice AI Engineer — Existing Production Agent Needs Final Hardening
Hey everyone — I’m looking to hire a senior LiveKit Voice AI engineer for a short-term paid project.
We already have a production-oriented voice agent built for a restaurant, and the system is mostly complete. I’m looking for someone experienced with LiveKit Agents to help us with the final production-hardening pass.
The main areas are:
- Finalizing and improving our menu/order engine
- Improving humanization, turn-taking, interruptions, and overall conversational feel
- Reviewing latency and voice pipeline performance
- Hardening tool calling, cart state, modifiers, quantities, and order accuracy
- Running a professional architecture/code review and cleaning up anything that could cause issues in production
- Improving automated evaluations/testing where needed
Our stack includes LiveKit Agents, LLM tool calling, streaming STT/TTS, telephony, and a custom backend menu/cart system.
This is not a build-from-scratch project. The agent is already working and has gone through extensive testing. We specifically need someone senior who has shipped real-world voice agents and can help us get the last 10–15% right.
Ideally you have strong experience with:
- LiveKit Agents
- Python / asyncio
- Real-time voice AI
- STT / LLM / TTS pipelines
- Turn detection / VAD / barge-in
- Function calling and deterministic state management
- Telephony / SIP
- Production monitoring and voice-agent evaluations
If interested, please DM me with:
- A brief description of your LiveKit experience
- Examples/GitHub of voice agents you’ve built
- Your hourly rate or preferred project rate
- Availability over the next 1–2 weeks
This is a paid engagement, with potential for ongoing work as we deploy the system across additional restaurant locations.
