Domera Labs builds Ami, the first voice-only AI assistant. Ami brings the power of a smartphone into a more human form: voice-first and deeply personalized.
We at Domera Labs are rethinking human-machine interaction from first principles by introducing a better interface to interact with technology: voice.
By combining the most intuitive hardware design with frontier AI, Ami makes AI accessible for the fastest growing demographic worldwide. The goal is to make the everyday life of older adults more seamless, while addressing that generation's biggest challenge: loneliness and isolation. With Ami, we are building the category leader of a new hardware paradigm by building a full standalone device, not a gadget, that aims to make the smartphones of today redundant.
The underlying technology of Ami combines a model-agnostic streaming pipeline consisting of proprietary models and off-the-shelf frontier models to create a hyper-personalized and proactive user experience. The backbone of Ami is built by our foundational lab, which develops a social intelligence model optimized for social interaction, human behavior and interpersonal skills.
Domera Labs has secured large distribution agreements, a model co-development partnership with a leading AI lab, and ODM manufacturing proposals. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of human-machine interaction, mass-consumer hardware and frontier AI.
Core ResponsibilitiesYou own how Ami enters the market.
Your responsibility is not to run a marketing function around an existing product. You will refine and execute the go-to-market strategy for a new consumer category from the ground up: who Ami is for, how we communicate it, how we launch it, where consumers discover it, how distribution translates into adoption, and how we build a repeatable engine from initial hype to millions of devices in the market.
Ami sits in an unusual position. The end user is often a senior, while the person discovering, purchasing or recommending the product may be their child, healthcare provider, insurer, retailer or another trusted party. Building the GTM therefore requires understanding both consumer psychology and complex distribution.
You will work directly with the founders across product, brand, distribution and launch.
Launch strategy: own the GTM plan from pre-launch through launch and scale, including sequencing, audience strategy, channel strategy, launch moments and geographic expansion
Consumer insight: deeply understand seniors, their adult children and the different motivations behind using, purchasing and recommending Ami. Turn qualitative insight into positioning, product decisions and acquisition strategy
Distribution activation: work directly with our distribution partners to turn agreements into sell-through. Build the playbooks, messaging, training, merchandising and activation required for Ami to succeed through partners
Demand generation: build the initial acquisition engine across paid, organic, referral, PR, creators, community and unconventional channels. Determine what scales rather than assuming a traditional channel mix
Brand and storytelling: develop the narrative around Ami and Domera Labs together with the founders. Translate technically complex AI and hardware into communication that is simple, emotional and credible
Growth experimentation: rapidly test messaging, audiences, pricing, offers, acquisition channels and onboarding funnels. Establish the measurement infrastructure and operating cadence required to learn quickly
Launch operations: coordinate product, hardware availability, distribution, PR, creative, customer support and growth so that the entire organization is aligned around launch
Retention and referrals: GTM does not stop at purchase. Understand activation, engagement, retention, subscription conversion and word-of-mouth, and work with product to improve each of them
Build the function: this is initially a highly hands-on role. Over time, hire and lead the team across growth, brand, communications, lifecycle and other GTM functions as we scale
A builder's mindset: ship > fail > learn > improve
Extremely strong consumer intuition. You understand why people adopt products, not just how to buy impressions against them
You can move between high-level strategy and execution without needing a large team or agency around you
You are comfortable entering a market where the category, messaging and playbook do not yet exist
Strong taste and judgment around positioning, storytelling and brand
You can simplify technically complex products without making them sound generic
You are highly analytical about funnels, unit economics, cohort behavior and channel performance
You move quickly and are comfortable changing your view when the market gives you new information
This is a founding-level position. You will work directly with the founders, define how the company goes to market from the ground up, and see the result of your decisions in consumers' hands within months, not years
We care significantly more about what you have built than your title or number of years of experience.
The strongest candidates will have done some combination of the following:
Built or materially scaled the GTM of a mass-market consumer product
Launched a new consumer product or category from near-zero awareness
Worked on a physical consumer product where launch timing, inventory and distribution matter
Built a consumer acquisition engine across multiple channels rather than optimizing a single paid channel
Owned positioning or messaging for a product that consumers initially struggled to understand
Worked closely with retail, telecom, insurance, healthcare, enterprise distribution or other large channel partners while maintaining a strong direct relationship with the end consumer
Built growth loops involving referrals, communities, partnerships or word-of-mouth
Owned subscription economics including CAC, conversion, retention, churn and LTV
Operated successfully in an early-stage company where strategy and execution are the same job
Bonus: experience in consumer hardware, AI products, consumer subscription businesses, products targeting older demographics, family-oriented products, healthcare distribution, retail launches, telecom, insurance, or building a brand that became culturally relevant.
What success looks likeThe objective is not simply to generate awareness around Ami.
Success means creating a market where consumers understand what Ami is, want it, talk about it and recommend it, while building the distribution and acquisition infrastructure capable of turning that demand into millions of devices in the field.
You will be responsible for finding the path from the first thousand highly engaged users to mass-market adoption.
