You will own backend architecture and production systems, working closely with research engineering and security. Your responsibilities will include: - Modernising voice architecture, including data models, storage and APIs. - Making voice cloning and fine-tuning pipelines reliable through monitoring, retries and failure recovery. - Building voice creation, verification and recommendation capabilities. - Owning workstreams from design to production, including frontend changes where needed. REQUIREMENTS - Strong backend engineering experience building and scaling high-traffic production systems. - Strong system design and database fundamentals, including data modelling, concurrency, migrations and security. - Experience operating production services, with strong debugging, monitoring and failure recovery skills. - Independent ownership, clear communication and the drive to ship quickly, with confidence working across the stack.
