Job Description

Company Description WE WANT TO RADICALLY IMPROVE HOW WE HUMANS COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER. OUR FIRST STEP AT AVA IS TO EMPOWER 450M DEAF AND HARD-OF-HEARING PEOPLE TO LIVE IN A FULLY ACCESSIBLE WORLD.

Every day, millions of people are excluded from conversations because they cannot hear what others say well. Our CEO Thibault grew up in a Deaf family & witnessed firsthand how the world was not accessible for them. Together with our CTO Skinner — deaf since age 2 — Thibault co-founded Ava to make live captioning of conversations as easy as turning on captions on TV.

Our small but fast-growing team has reinvented AI-based speech recognition technology to be in service of people who need it the most. We dream of a 24/7 accessible world, without any communication barrier.
