Speechify is a text-to-speech platform used by over 50 million people globally to convert PDFs, books, Google Docs, articles, and websites into audio. The company has been recognized by Google (Chrome Extension of the Year) and Apple (2025 Design Award for Inclusivity) and operates as a fully distributed, 100% remote organization with ~200 employees worldwide. You'll join the Data side of Speechify's AI team, responsible for all aspects of data collection and pipeline infrastructure supporting model training operations. The team builds high-quality datasets at petabyte scale with 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-managed) for data ingestion; collaborating with research scientists to optimize the cost/throughput/quality frontier; and working with the AI team and leadership to define the dataset roadmap powering 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 scripting in Linux, hands-on experience with Docker and Infrastructure-as-Code on a major cloud provider (GCP preferred), and ideally experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing workflows. Strong communication and ability to handle multiple priorities are essential. Speechy offers a fast-growing, entrepreneurial environment with hands-off management, competitive salary, equity, and the opportunity to impact a transformative product used by millions, including people with learning differences like dyslexia, ADD, low vision, and autism.
