About this Role
We are looking for a Backend Software Engineer with 2+ years of experience to build the pipelines, systems, and infrastructure that power how leading AI labs process and make sense of audio data.

What you need

- Demonstrated ownership of zero-to-one projects with measurable business impact
- Experience building scalable systems and data processing pipelines in production
What will you be doing?
Building scalable backend systems and data processing pipelines that connect and power all three of David AI's products
Designing infrastructure that helps the platform scale efficiently as customer demand grows rapidly
Working across the speaker platform, lab/researcher tools, and internal tooling products
Collaborating closely with researchers to iterate on data collection infrastructure
