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 engineering role with significant impact on Speechify's next-generation AI models.
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 helping shape the AI team's dataset roadmap for 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). Experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing workflows is a plus. Strong communication and ability to juggle multiple priorities are essential.
Speechify offers a fast-growing, entrepreneurial environment with a hands-off management approach, competitive salaries, stock options, and the opportunity to impact millions of users with accessibility-focused technology.
