About us
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.
Speak is building an AI tutor that remembers useful context across lessons, responds naturally to learner speech, and adapts what it teaches. Making this work reliably across languages and proficiency levels requires more than one model: it depends on voice technology, learner memory, generated content, evaluation, and the systems that put them together.
We're hiring a Product Lead for Learning Technology to own product direction across these capabilities. You'll work directly with our founders, engineering and research leaders, and the teams building Speak's Tutor to decide where to use external models, improve existing systems, or develop technology of our own — and which investments will actually improve the learner experience.
This is a hands-on product leadership role. You'll build and lead PMs across Voice ML, AI Platform, Content Quality, and Memory while remaining involved in the most important technical product decisions. Initially, you'll take direct responsibility for priority areas that lack dedicated PM ownership, particularly shared AI systems and evaluations.
If you don't meet every criterion below but are excited about the role, please apply. Technical founders, engineers who moved into product, and leaders of user-facing AI products can all have relevant backgrounds.
