Plateforme IA pour automatiser les workflows B2B.
Volta est la plateforme d’exécution IA pour la distribution B2B. Elle se connecte aux systèmes existants et déploie des agents IA pour traiter les demandes entrantes — quel que soit le canal (email, PDF, EDI, WhatsApp…) — et exécuter les workflows opérationnels, commandes, devis, service client, de bout en bout, sous le contrôle des équipes.
Fondée en 2024 entre Paris et Milan par Paul Guillemin et Mario Parteli, Volta réunit une expertise en IA, en logiciel et en distribution.
Volts a levé 11M€ auprès d’un réseau de plus de 50 investisseurs — entrepreneurs du numérique, dirigeants expérimentés du secteur et familles industrielles. Parmi eux, Pascal Houillon, ancien PDG de Cegid et de Sage, et Paolo Grue, ancien PDG de P&G, aux côtés de fonds ayant soutenu Lovable, Qonto, Datadog et Delivery Hero.
Volta aide distributeurs, grossistes, fabricants et marques à transformer des processus complexes et manuels en workflows exécutés par l’IA et supervisés par leurs équipes.
You’ll make Volta’s AI pipeline production-grade at enterprise scale: multi-tenant, observable, cost-efficient and configurable per customer without code changes. You’ll take parsing, matching and LLM orchestration services that already work and make them work for fifteen enterprise customers at once. You report to the Head of AI.
Turn the Core into configuration: design the tenant configuration model (prompts, schemas, matching rules, thresholds, feature switches) so onboarding a new enterprise customer is configuration plus evaluation, not a code change
Make multi-tenancy real: per-tenant data separation across services, storage, caches, knowledge bases and traces
Scale the pipeline: Cloud Run services for ingestion, API, parsing and matching that absorb bursts of orders and large documents, with queues, idempotency and retries that don’t re-run the whole pipeline
Make it observable: every LLM call traced and costed in Langfuse, trace IDs carried onto orders, alerts on stuck orders and quality regressions
Keep cost per order under control: model choice per step, caching, batching, cost dashboards per customer
Ship safely: replay and regression tests in CI for prompts and schemas, versioned prompts and configs, gradual rollout per tenant
Make accuracy a release gate: plug per-customer evaluation harnesses into the delivery pipeline, with the data scientists
Make it secure: treat prompts, model outputs, tools and data flows as untrusted attack surface, and enforce it with automated guardrails, least-privilege access and continuous red-teaming in CI/CD
Backend engineer who moved into AI systems: 4+ years building production backend services in Python, at least one or two on LLM-powered systems in production
Distributed systems done right: queues, async processing, idempotency, retries, back-pressure, concurrency on shared databases
Multi-tenant SaaS: you’ve designed or operated a system serving many customers with real isolation requirements
Observability first: you’ve instrumented services with tracing and metrics and used them to debug production
Config over code: you’ve built systems driven by versioned configuration, feature flags or rules, and kept them understandable
Must have: strong Python (FastAPI or similar), typing, tests; production LLM orchestration (structured outputs, tool calling, retries and fallbacks, prompt versioning); containerised services on Cloud Run, GKE, EKS or ECS; tracing and LLM observability (Langfuse, OpenTelemetry or similar); CI/CD and automated testing of non-deterministic systems; fluent English
Nice to have: GCP (Cloud Run, Vertex AI, Pub/Sub, IAM); Elasticsearch or hybrid search; agent frameworks; cost optimisation of LLM workloads; GDPR and data residency in practice; French or Italian
Location: Paris or Milan, hybrid, 3 office days a week
At Volta, we believe diversity makes our teams stronger. We welcome all applications, regardless of gender, background, or experience.
