See yourself at Twilio
Join the team as Twilio’s next Machine Learning Engineer, Customer Memory.
About the job
This position is needed to build and scale the pipelines that turn raw conversation data into structured, searchable customer memory, and the evaluation systems that keep that memory accurate as the product evolves.
You'll join the Conversation Memory team, which builds the memory layer behind Twilio's Conversational AI platform: the systems that extract what matters from millions of conversations, resolve it to the right customer, and retrieve it in milliseconds when an agent needs it. Memory that is wrong, stale, or crossed between customers is worse than no memory at all, so quality measurement is a first-class part of the work.
Responsibilities
In this role, you’ll:
• Build the extraction pipeline that turns raw data into structured memory, tuning the LLM prompts and schemas that decide what an AI agent remembers about a customer and what it forgets.
• Own the retrieval path that answers "what do we know about this person?" in milliseconds, working with embeddings, vector search, and ranking
• Contribute to the eval systems that tell us whether memory is actually getting better, turning a fuzzy question of quality into benchmarks and regression gates that run before every change ships.
• Diagnose production issues across the ingestion, extraction, and indexing path using logs, metrics, and traces.
• Partner with Product and ML teams to translate customer problems into system changes and evaluation criteria.
Qualifications
Twilio values diverse experiences from all kinds of industries, and we encourage everyone who meets the required qualifications to apply. If your career is just starting or hasn't followed a traditional path, don't let that stop you from considering Twilio. We are always looking for people who will bring something new to the table!
