Speechify is a mission-driven company making reading accessible to 50+ million users through text-to-speech technology. The company has won Chrome Extension of the Year (Google) and 2025 Design Award for Inclusivity (Apple). With ~200 employees globally in a fully distributed setting, Speechify operates at the intersection of AI and audio.
You'll join the Data side of the AI team, responsible for all aspects of data collection supporting model training operations. The team builds high-quality datasets at petabyte scale with tight integration of infrastructure, engineering, and research.
Key responsibilities:
- Source new audio data and integrate into ingestion pipelines
- Operate and extend cloud infrastructure (GCP, Terraform) for data ingestion
- Collaborate with research scientists to optimize the cost/throughput/quality frontier
- Partner with AI leadership to shape the dataset roadmap for next-generation consumer and enterprise products
You'll need 5+ years of software development experience, proficiency with Python/bash in Linux, Docker, Infrastructure-as-Code, and hands-on experience with a major cloud provider (GCP preferred). Experience with web crawlers and large-scale data processing is a plus. The ideal candidate holds a BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or related field and thrives in a scrappy, fast-moving environment.
Speechify offers competitive salaries, stock options, a hands-off management approach, and the opportunity to impact millions of users with learning differences including dyslexia, ADD, low vision, and autism.
