At Maple, we’re building AI agents that work for local businesses: restaurants, salons, repair shops, and everything in between. These agents answer calls, take orders, book appointments, and handle real customer interactions over natural voice.
But our bigger mission goes deeper: we’re building automated ontologies that model how businesses actually operate — their services, workflows, constraints, and language — so our agents can adapt to them instantly. We meet businesses where they are, not where software wants them to be.
We have many customers, strong revenue growth, years of runway, and backing from world-class investors. I’ll share more once we meet.
About the roleAs a Design Engineer, you’ll be at the center of how we build products. You’ll own entire surfaces of the product: dashboards, config tools, real-time monitoring, internal ops UIs. You’ll prototype new ideas and bring structure to chaos, designing tools that scale across dozens of verticals with minimal friction.
We work in person, 5 days a week in our NYC office. Collaboration here is fast, noisy (in the best way), and high-trust. We move quickly, break things intentionally, and fix them just as fast.

What We Do
Maple builds human-like voice agents that answer every call, take orders, book reservations, and even handle payments—fully synced to the systems merchants already use. We’re starting with restaurants and expanding to drive-thrus, kiosks, and every place customers still reach for a phone. Our vision: give every neighborhood business an always-on teammate who never misses a guest, so great service is effortless everywhere. If shaping that future excites you, join us at maple.inc/careers.
