This role joins 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 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 AI leadership to shape the dataset roadmap for next-generation consumer and enterprise products.
Ideal candidates have a BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or related field, 5+ years of industry software development experience, proficiency with bash/Python in Linux environments, hands-on experience with Docker and Infrastructure-as-Code, and professional experience with a major cloud provider (GCP preferred). Experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing workflows is a plus. The role requires strong communication skills and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
