Speechify is a 50M+ user text-to-speech platform that transforms reading into audio across iOS, Android, Mac, Chrome, and web. The company recently earned Chrome Extension of the Year (Google) and 2025 Design Award for Inclusivity (Apple). With ~200 distributed employees globally and no physical office, Speechify operates at the intersection of AI and audio accessibility.
You'll join the Data side of the AI team, owning all aspects of data collection to support model training at petabyte scale. This is a hands-on role combining infrastructure engineering, research collaboration, and dataset strategy.
Key responsibilities:
- Source and integrate new audio data streams into the ingestion pipeline
- Operate and extend cloud infrastructure (GCP, Terraform) for data ingestion
- Partner with AI scientists to optimize the cost/throughput/quality frontier
- Collaborate with leadership on the AI team's dataset roadmap for next-generation consumer and enterprise products
You bring 5+ years of software development experience, strong proficiency in Python/bash scripting, Docker, and Infrastructure-as-Code. Experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing is valued. You're adaptable, communicate clearly, and thrive in a scrappy, entrepreneurial environment.
Speechify's mission is ensuring reading is never a barrier to learning—your work directly impacts millions with dyslexia, ADD, low vision, and other learning differences.
