Speechify is a text-to-speech platform used by over 50 million people to convert PDFs, books, Google Docs, articles, and websites into audio. The company recently earned Apple's 2025 Design Award for inclusivity and was named Chrome Extension of the Year by Google. With ~200 employees globally in a fully distributed setting, Speechify is hiring a Senior iOS Engineer to support rapid growth of its iOS app, currently the #18 productivity app on the App Store. In this role, you will actively ship production code for the Speechify iOS app, lead key engineering and product decisions, and participate in shaping the product roadmap alongside a dedicated product team. You'll maintain and enhance the complex app architecture while working in a flat organization where technical excellence and consistent delivery create leadership opportunities.
