The mission at Liva AI (YC S25) is to make AI feel truly human. AI voices and faces today still feel flat and generic, missing emotion, nuance, and identity. We’re fixing that by building the world’s richest library of human voice and video data, fueling the next generation of realistic AI.

We’re hiring an extremely organized and committed operator to take on a full-time role. You’ll manage complex projects and people with efficiency, solve problems in uncertain situations, and help us scale fast. Over time, you’ll also play a key role in building the most automated operations system of any data company, translating the workflows you run today into scalable processes and overseeing the internal systems we’re developing.

This is a founding role: your work will directly fuel the next generation of AI in a tangible way, while shaping the foundation of how Liva runs at scale.
