Welcome to Happy Scribe, a 100% bootstrapped and profitable startup based in Barcelona, on a mission to make the internet accessible.
We offer transcription and subtitling services that combine AI with the expertise of language professionals to create a 5-star product.
We're working on one of the fundamental problems of this decade: speech-to-text technology.We're currently 28 people and growing fast with a profitable €6.5M ARR.
We are building the team thoughtfully and with care.
For decades, transcription at scale has been almost impossible, but with the advancement of ASR technology, we are on the verge of having computers that understand speech better than humans.
Almost all the infrastructure is in place, but we'll need remarkable engineering to pull it off.Your Mission as an Engineer at Happy ScribeBuild product features from start to finish, wearing many hats during the creation process while you conceive, design, implement, ship, and maintain them — think features to improve the editing experience.Build the scalable infrastructure needed for the transcription of the future — like identifying coupling and extracting concerns into small and scalable services.Improve the performance, reliability, and efficiency of our systems — for example, finding bottlenecks in the transcription pipeline and optimizing them to reduce overall turnaround time.Design and implement processes and internal tools with simplicity and productivity in mind — such as a tool to sync valuable user feedback with the internal database.This Might Be For You If...You have 2+ years of experience as a Software Engineer and are comfortable working in a Full Stack role that is about 70% backend and 30% frontend.You are product-focused and want to listen to customers to build the product that will solve their needs.You care about the business implications of anything you build, balancing craft, speed, and the bottom line.You love steep learning curves and are not afraid to learn about subjects outside of your comfort zone.You care about information security and design things with security in mind.You are excited about our engineering principles, or at least curious about them.You are a great mentor, able to share your knowledge and upskill other team members.Bonus points:If you have experience helping a junior engineer stretch their skills and learn fast.
We have a language-agnostic approach to code and believe the best engineers can code in any language.
Our stack is in Ruby on Rails and React, but it's not a requirement that you know how to work with them.#J-18808-Ljbffr
