Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Speechify as an employer.

What you need

  • Proven backend experience in TS/Node
  • Direct experience with GCP; working knowledge of AWS, Azure, or another cloud
  • A habit of giving away work you used to own, and something to show for the room it created
  • A daily working setup with AI agents you can describe in detail
  • The instinct to check a result against the system itself
  • Judgment about what not to build, and the ability to say plainly why you dropped it

Nice to have

  • Docker and containerized deployments
  • Deploying high-availability applications on Kubernetes

What you get

  • Competitive compensation
  • Welcoming atmosphere
  • Commitment to an exceptional asynchronous work culture
  • Opportunity to have a significant impact in a revolutionary industry
  • Dynamic environment where your contributions shape the company and its products
  • Active role at the intersection of artificial intelligence and audio

Worth weighing

  • Salary range provided is broad, which may indicate flexibility or uncertainty in compensation based on experience
  • The role requires a strong emphasis on automation and efficiency, which may not suit all candidates
  • The company operates in a fully remote setting, which may require strong self-management skills
