Join the team as Twilio’s next Senior Manager, Machine Learning on Twilio’s Conversation Memory team.

About the job

This position is critical to leveraging Twilio’s massive data ecosystem and communication scale to build foundational platform capabilities for the next generation of conversational AI, specifically by owning the development of 0-to-1 platform features that empower developers to build sophisticated, context-aware customer engagement applications.

This is a highly technical, hands-on role, requiring a "player-coach" mentality to actively contribute technical expertise, bridge the gap between theoretical research and production-grade experimentation, and provide strategic direction to the team, rather than being purely a people manager.
