Listening turns textbooks and research papers into audio, so students can listen on the go.
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.
