Job Description

Chief Operating Officer 

Whissle is turning every nuance in voice and vision into real‑time, actionable intelligence. Building on our Meta‑ASR breakthroughs, we are now expanding into audio‑visual, multi‑sensory AI that understands not only what is said, but how it is said, who is speaking, and what is happening. If you thrive on scaling deep‑tech products from a scrappy v1 to global impact, read on.

Why this role matters

We have proven the tech; now we seek operational excellence to match our engineering edge. As COO you will be the right hand to the CEO, defining process, people, and partnerships so Whissle can sprint from early‑access APIs to an enterprise‑ready platform powering conversational multi-modal agents everywhere.

What you will own

  • Go‑to‑market foundations – pricing, sales ops, customer‑success playbooks
  • OKRs & forecasting – translate vision into metrics; keep teams unblocked and on time
  • Fundraising & investor relations – prep data rooms, sharpen the story, guide capital strategy
  • Org build‑out – recruit & retain a world‑class team across product, engineering, GTM
  • Operational rigor – implement lightweight systems (finance, legal, HR) that scale with growth

We are looking for

  • 5 – 15 + years leading ops or GTM at a Series A/B (or earlier) deep‑tech startup
  • Proven track record of shipping revenue‑generating products and building high‑velocity teams
  • Eagerness to dive in hands‑on now, then automate and delegate as we scale
  • Data‑first mindset — you instrument, measure, iterate, repeat

Nice‑to‑haves: voice‑AI and/or audio‑visual multimodal AI market knowledge, LLM‑as‑an‑agent production experience, prior founder background, Bay Area / NYC network / Texas-Austin — but outcomes beat credentials.

What is in it for you

  • Equity: 2– 5 % (commensurate with experience & stage)
  • Competitive cash once we close our next round
  • Direct influence on the product and research roadmap alongside a PhD‑level AI team
  • Flexible Bay‑Area HQ / remote hybrid
  • Help build the operating system for voice‑ and vision‑first, multi‑agent AI before anyone else

How to apply

Please email ksingla@whissle.ai with following answers, to discover fit.

  1. Share with us a two‑bullet summary of a product you have scaled end‑to‑end
  2. Describe your biggest ops “super‑power” in fewer than 50 words
  3. Include your LinkedIn profile or résumé

Let us redefine how humans and machines converse — at the speed of voice and sight, both actively and passively.
