A FOUNDATIONAL COMPANY

Rilla is on a mission to index the offline world.

Today, we've built the leading sales coaching software for organizations doing sales offline. We have over 1000 customers, including The Home Depot, KKR, Neighborly, and PulteGroup, using our product to enable AI sales coaching across their organization.

We are backed by Google Ventures, Bessemer Ventures, Crew Capital, and Broom Ventures, along with others.

We're an in office team in NYC with builders who operate like high speed reinforcement learners. We obsess over our customers, move at a high velocity, are not afraid of failure, and look to maximize our real-world impact.

If you want to build the products and systems for how billions of conversations in the real world are captured and indexed, Rilla is the place to do it.

THE ROLE

Rilla engineers architect and ship features across the stack at lightning speed. On a daily basis, you will build end-to-end workflows, take them to production, and solve real world problems across an out-sized scale.

As the first fully dedicated mobile engineer, you will clear today's velocity bottlenecks and take full ownership of our mobile codebase, crafting a lightning‑fast, real‑time experience for field users. Your work will establish a unified mobile layer that captures and surfaces billions of conversation events - setting the quality bar for every release to come.

Do you describe yourself as "obsessive"? Do you aspire to be a founder or a leader in applying AI to the physical world? We believe Rilla is the best place - with the best peers - to learn how.
