You'll join the Data side of the AI team, responsible for all aspects of data collection to support model training operations. The team builds high-quality datasets at petabyte scale through tight integration of infrastructure, engineering, and research. This is a hands-on role where you'll directly impact the next generation of Speechify's consumer and enterprise AI products.
Key responsibilities include: sourcing and integrating new audio data sources into the ingestion pipeline; operating and extending cloud infrastructure (GCP, Terraform) for data ingestion; collaborating with research scientists to optimize the cost/throughput/quality frontier; and working with leadership to shape the AI team's dataset roadmap.
You should have a BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or related field, 5+ years of software development experience, and strong proficiency with Python/bash scripting, Docker, Infrastructure-as-Code, and at least one major cloud provider (GCP preferred). Experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing workflows is a plus. The ideal candidate is scrappy, adaptable, and communicates clearly in writing and verbally.
Speechify offers a fast-growing environment with entrepreneurial culture, hands-off management, competitive salaries, and the opportunity to build products that directly impact people with learning differences including dyslexia, ADD, low vision, and autism.
