Speechify is a rapidly growing audio-information platform that converts articles, documents, and books into listenable content. The company is #1 in its category and experiencing exponential growth, serving millions of users including those with learning differences like dyslexia, ADD, and low vision.
You'll join the Core Experiences Team, which builds and maintains the foundational services and SDKs powering Speechify's product across platforms. This is a critical role at the intersection of product and infrastructure, requiring strategic thinking and a passion for designing clear, reliable APIs and simple systems that enhance user experience.
Key responsibilities include:
- Collaborating with Product Teams to scope projects, reduce scope for faster customer feedback, and navigate integration/UX tradeoffs across different product teams
- Delivering solutions via the cross-platform SDK
- Optimizing existing functionality to ship faster loading times and more intelligent parsing through efficient abstractions and algorithm improvements
- Shipping cloud functions, lightweight backend services, and jobs using Kotlin
Ideal candidates demonstrate systems thinking, speed in generating ideas and making decisions about what ships now versus later, focus in a high-growth remote environment, and strong collaboration skills with designers, marketers, and product managers. The preferred tech stack includes Kotlin Multiplatform (Java experience acceptable), with GCP experience as a plus.
The company offers a fast-growing environment where you can shape the product, an entrepreneurial team that supports risk and hustle, hands-off management, competitive salaries, stock options, and the opportunity to work on a life-changing product at the intersection of AI and audio.
