Job description

The mission of Speechify is to make sure that reading is never a barrier to learning.

Over 50 million people use Speechify's text-to-speech products to turn whatever they're reading - PDFs, books, Google Docs, news articles, websites - into audio, so they can read faster, read more, and remember more.

Today, nearly 200 people around the globe work on Speechify in a 100% distributed setting - Speechify has no office.
