About Wispr

Wispr is building Jarvis, starting with effortless voice dictation. Our mission is to make interacting with your devices as effortless as talking to a close friend. We believevoice is the most natural, powerful way to communicate — and we're building the interfaces to make that a reality.

Our voice dictation product, Flow, solves the biggest use case for technology: letting people communicate with others and AI. Flow is the first consumer voice dictation platform that people use more than their keyboards.

We are a team of AI researchers, designers, growth experts, and engineers who step away from the status quo to rethink human-computer interaction. We like working with people who are high agency, open communicators, user obsessed, and detail oriented. We enjoy spirited debate, truth seeking, and impact. We have averaged 50% month over month growth in 2025, and have raised over $56M from Menlo Ventures, NEA, 8VC, and others.

As Head of Talent Acquisition at Wispr, you will be responsible for taking the team from 21 people to 45 by the end of the year, and continuing to grow it rapidly as the company grows. Reporting directly to one of our cofounders, you will partner closely with senior leaders and run critical searches across functions (engineering, product design, marketing, etc.). To start, your role will be primarily individual contributing on technical rules.
