    About Us


    Volley, named one of Y Combinator's Top Companies , develops voice-controlled games and entertainment apps for Amazon Alexa and Google Home.

    Our voice apps are world-class and attract millions of users every month.
    We've created and run several of the top experiences for voice-controlled devices, including:
    Jeopardy

    • America's most popular game show
    Song Quiz

    - a name-that-tune music trivia game
    Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?

    - a quiz game to test your elementary-level knowledge
    Bedtime Stories

    - a soothing, narrated skill to help you fall asleep

    We believe voice control will be the main way people access entertainment in their bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms, and cars, and our goal is to build a destination for interactive audio entertainment, as Netflix did for television.

    Volley believes in an inclusive workplace and is committed to building a team from a variety of backgrounds.

    We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform essential job functions, and to receive the other benefits and privileges of employment.

    We're a small but quickly growing team that truly enjoys working together.

    We love coming together for all kinds of in-person and Zoom fun, the funny and strange in Slack #random, and occasional karaoke sessions in our brand new Hayes Valley office.

    If this sounds like fun (we promise it is), get in touch
    Underrepresented candidates, and candidates from nontraditional backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply
