Speechify is the easiest way to listen to the world’s information . Articles on the web, documents in the cloud, books on your phone—we absorb the world’s content and help our members listen to it on the go, at their own speed, with tools that make learning easier, deeper, and faster.

Or, put another way: what Spotify has done for audio entertainment we’re doing for audio information. And whatever we’re doing seems to be working: we’re #1 in our category, profitable, and have hockey-stick growth.

With that growth comes the need for a Software Engineer, Platform to join our newly formed Platform team and help us scale our infrastructure, optimize the performance of key product flows and build end-to-end systems.

This is a key role and ideal for someone who thinks strategically, enjoys high-pace environments, passionate about owning product decisions and has experience building and scaling complex engineering systems.

Some of the things you’ll do:

  • Build, own and report on the performance of complex end-to-end systems
  • Actively participate in product decisions and refining the product roadmap
  • Work with the Platform team to provide universal architecture and experience across our products

To succeed here, you’ll need:

  • Experience. You've played a crucial role in building and maintaining of large scale products and have worked both backend and frontend
  • Systems thinking. You know how to think high level about end-to-end systems involving multiple products, 3rd party services etc
  • Speed. You work quickly to generate ideas and options and know how to decide which things can ship now and what things need time
  • Focus. We’re a high-growth startup with a busy, remote team. You know how and when to engage or be heads down
  • Collaboration. You know how to inspire, play, and negotiate with opinionated designers, marketers, and PMs
  • Tech Stack: (must) NodeJS, ReactJS, TypeScript, (good to have) Java, Go, Python

We offer:

  • A fast-growing environment where you can help shape the culture
  • An entrepreneurial crew that supports risk, intuition, and hustle
  • A hands-off approach so you can focus and do your best work
  • The opportunity to make an impact in a transformative industry
  • A competitive salary, a collegiate atmosphere, and a commitment to building a great asynchronous culture

Think you’re suited for this job? Tell us about yourself, why you're interested in the role, and include link to their LinkedIn.

Not looking but know someone ideal for the role? Refer them! We’ll send you (really good) chocolate if we make the hire.
