About the role

  • This is an extraordinary moment to join us.
  • We're in the middle of a fundamental agentic shift in software development, and are embracing the change https://www.speak.com/blog/agentic-engineering.
  • At Speak, you'll use AI agents as core collaborators in your day-to-day workflow-helping you move faster, explore more ideas, and focus on the highest-impact problems.

Responsibilities

  • Support the launching of new markets and new languages
  • Implement various paywall tests, such as pricing, design changes, delayed paywalls, discounted offers, etc.
  • We're operating in an agentic-first world, where the role of a builder is shifting from writing every line of code to designing systems that build, test, and improve themselves.
  • You will collaborate closely with backend engineers and our partners in Product and Design.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of industry experience working as a Mobile Engineer, preferably in a fast-paced startup environment
  • Proficiency in Swift, with a strong understanding of common mobile architectures including MVC/MVVM
  • Strong product sense: ability to think broadly/cross-functionally about product experiences

Company info

  • Our mission is to reinvent the way people learn, starting with language.
  • Learning a language can change a life by opening doors to new cultures, careers, and communities. Two billion people around the world are actively trying to learn a language, but the best way to learn (one-on-one tutoring) is hard to access at scale and hasn't been meaningfully improved in decades. Speak is building a human-level, AI-powered tutor in your pocket: a conversation-first experience that lets learners actually speak, get instant feedback, and progress through carefully designed lessons. The result is a complete path from beginner to confident speaker across multiple languages.
  • Speak first launched in South Korea in 2019, where Speak has now become the number one language learning app, and we now serve learners across many markets and 15+ languages. Speak is one of the world's leading AI companies, with over $150m raised in venture investment from OpenAI, Accel, Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and more, with a distributed team across San Francisco, Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, and Ljubljana.
