The company was recently named Chrome Extension of the Year by Google and received Apple's 2025 Design Award for Inclusivity. With ~200 employees distributed globally and no physical offices, Speechify operates a fully remote, asynchronous culture. You'll join the Data side of Speechify's AI team, responsible for all aspects of data collection to support model training operations. The team builds high-quality datasets at petabyte-scale and low cost through tight integration of infrastructure, engineering, and research. Key responsibilities include: sourcing new audio data and integrating it 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 define the AI team's dataset roadmap for next-generation consumer and enterprise products. You should have a BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or related field, 5+ years of industry software development experience, proficiency with bash/Python in Linux, Docker and Infrastructure-as-Code expertise, and hands-on experience with a major cloud provider (GCP preferred). Web crawler and large-scale data processing experience is a plus. Strong communication and ability to juggle multiple priorities are essential. Speechify offers a fast-growing, entrepreneurial environment with hands-off management, competitive salaries, stock options, and the opportunity to impact a transformative product used by millions, including people with learning differences like dyslexia, ADD, low vision, and autism.
