Voice Expert Job at Cresta

Job Description

As a Voice Expert, you will shape and deliver world-class voice experiences for Cresta’s AI Agents, defining what great sounds like in real end user interactions. Working directly with customer executives—often at Fortune 500 companies—you will articulate Cresta’s creative vision for voice and translate each customer’s brand, audience, and business goals into a distinctive, on-brand AI voice. Internally, you will partner closely with NLP Specialists, Conversation Designers, Product Managers, and GTM teams to evaluate voices at scale using both human judgment and AI, and establish best practices across industries and use cases. You will own the end-to-end creation of bespoke voices, leading voice actor sourcing, direction, recording, editing, engineering, and fine-tuning with TTS partners until the voice authentically represents the customer’s brand. Beyond the voice itself, you will help design natural, thoughtful conversational interactions to ensure every exchange feels intentional, engaging, and effective at driving business outcomes.

Job Responsibility

Define and champion the creative vision for the voice experience of Cresta’s AI Agents, establishing Cresta’s credibility and thought leadership in voice experience design.
Collaborate with Cresta customers (client facing role!) to co-create a "voice brand" specific to each customer’s unique business requirements/needs. Lead customer-facing workshops to translate brand voice requirements into specific voice selections or professionally cloned voices (PVC).
Produce the complete end-to-end PVC process with Text-to-Speech (TTS) vendors, including voice actor sourcing, coaching/directing, recording, audio editing/engineering, and voice fine-tuning.
Curate a diverse selection of voices to optimize for various industries and use cases and business categories.
Develop and document voice experience best practices tailored to verticals, personas, and brands.
Partner with Conversation Designers to design natural-sounding micro-interactions and define prompts for Large Language Models (LLMs) that optimize transcripts for TTS read-aloud quality.
Continuously refine the evaluation criteria for voice experience in collaboration with NLP specialists, and evaluate voices from various vendors.

Requirements

Voice Experience Mastery — The ability to define, evaluate, and craft what “great” sounds like.

Product & Creative Leadership — The vision and drive to connect user experience, technology, and brand goals into a cohesive roadmap. This person partners across design, product, and engineering, sets measurable quality bars, and ensures that improvements to voice experience actually move core business metrics and customer perception.
