We're VC backed and growing like a rocket ship We're looking for a senior engineer. Primary programming language is Python. Experience with machine learning a plus but not required. The role involves: - Improving our PDF extraction functions - Integrating text-to-audio APIs - Managing AWS server infrastructure - Deploying machine learning models - General backend: performance, reliability, observability, etc. We move fast and ship things quickly. The code you write will be in users' hands in days. The team is highly technical, no middle management, self-directed. We meet in SF 2x a week, work from home the rest of the time. Please contact: derek@listening.io. Please include a cover letter and resume, and why you're interested in the role.
