Job description
WHY DELPHI?
Delphi is building the network of digital minds.
For the first time, anyone can create an interactive version of themselves: a living profile that talks, teaches, and answers questions in your voice, with your perspective and judgment, around the clock. The internet gave us static profiles and endless feeds. We're building something alive. People won't just read about you, they'll experience how you think.
This is the consumer shift we're betting on. Today it's thousands of the world's most brilliant minds. Next it's everyone: every thought leader, expert, and professional with a digital mind that scales their wisdom to anyone, anywhere. A new social layer where knowledge is abundant, personalized, and discoverable.
We are trusted and loved by thousands of the world’s most brilliant minds. We have tripled revenue, users, and Delphi interactions in the past 6 months - all organically through word of mouth. We plan to accelerate even further from here.
Delphi’s investors include Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, Abstract Ventures, Michael Ovitz, Gokul Rajaram, Olivia Wilde, and dozens of founders from Lyft, Zoom, Doordash, and many more. Our team includes founders with successful exits and builders from Apple, Spotify, Substack and more.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Help build Delphi “minds” end-to-end: help create, structure, test, and iterate on profiles so they feel sharp, useful, and on-brand.
- Run tight build loops: take messy inputs (source material, calls, docs), turn them into an initial version, test it like a real user, then improve it quickly.
- QA and improve conversation quality:
- Support audio/content quality for mind building:
- Flag muddy/tinny audio, room noise, echo, and other issues that degrade output
- Help ensure inputs are clean enough to produce high-quality minds
- Move fast across whatever is highest leverage that week (product testing, ops execution, creator/project support).
WHO YOU ARE
- A builder first: you like shipping, testing, and iterating until something feels excellent.
- You understand that “knowledge” is dynamic: structure, clarity, matter as much as raw information.
- Clear concise writer: you can turn ambiguity into crisp copy and usable source material.
- Optimistic, iterative mindset: you don’t get stuck; you run fast loops and improve.
- Strong user empathy: you can authentically roleplay an end-user and stress-test whether the mind is actually helpful.
- Good taste on quality (especially audio and output quality): you notice what’s off and can describe it clearly.
- High-agency and scrappy: you figure things out, unblock yourself, and keep momentum.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT HERE
We work on hard problems. Our team is full of former founders, and entrepreneurial individuals who are taking on immense initiatives.
We push each other. Work from our beautiful Jackson Square office in San Francisco, surrounded by peers pushing to do their best work.
Benefits
- Unlimited Learning Stipend: Whether it’s books, courses, or conferences, we want to support your growth and development. The more you learn and improve your craft the more effective we will be together.

- 401k covered by Human Interest.
- Housing Stipend.
- Relocation support to SF (as needed)
If you’re looking for just a job, Delphi isn’t the right fit. But if you want to shape the future of human connection, scale wisdom for billions, and build something that will outlast us all - you’ll feel at home here.
