The Role
Orum's Engineering team plays a pivotal role in driving this vision forward. A remote first company since the beginning- we're tackling some of the toughest challenges sales teams face, and there’s still so much to build.
As a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer, you'll take end-to-end ownership of critical product features, delivering seamless, high-impact user experiences in close collaboration with Product Managers and Designers.

The Dialer Team
The Dialer team owns the core of Orum’s platform, powering millions of outbound calls and generating the rich conversation data that drives our product. This is a highly technical, real-time system where milliseconds impact connect rates and outcomes. You’ll work on distributed systems for parallel dialing, call routing, and real-time audio built for speed, reliability, and scale, while also helping embed AI-driven intelligence into the dialer to continuously improve connect rates and optimize call strategies. If you enjoy solving complex, high-impact problems at the intersection of systems and AI, this team is at the heart of Orum’s innovation.
