Location Barcelona Employment Type Full time Location Type Hybrid Department Engineering **Hello** We’re HappyScribe, a profitable, 100% bootstrapped AI company based in Barcelona. We built one of the web’s most accurate multilingual transcription platforms, trusted by **hundreds of thousands of users each month**. That product funds our freedom to create what’s next—no investors, no burn rate, just focus. Now we’re taking that same tech and expertise to a bigger frontier: **turning conversations into intelligence.** We’re building the layer where meetings become memory, ideas become action, and teams work with more clarity and speed. You’d be joining a team of \~20 people, close\-knit and pragmatic. Some of us are scaling a mature, revenue\-generating platform. Others are prototyping new products that push the limits of speech and **agentic AI.** We move fast but think long\-term. There’s room here to own, shape, and ship real products — not pitch decks. **What you will do…** * Own the technical direction of our core platform — the engine that powers HappyScribe’s revenue. You’ll make architecture decisions, manage tech debt with intent, and build user\-facing features that improve stability, performance, and experience. * Lead a small, high\-output team (3–4 engineers) through technical influence, not hierarchy. You’ll guide design and execution by building alongside them. * Ship code that matters. This role is hands\-on: you’ll architect, implement, and iterate fast, turning priorities into shipped features and cleaner systems. * Work closely with Ignasi (CPTO), plus our GTM and Care leads, to translate business needs into technical strategy and execution. * Example projects: + Strengthen and simplify our infrastructure for reliability and maintainability. + Optimize our AI provider routing to improve speed and cut costs. + Level up our user\-facing editors with faster performance and better usability. **What you will bring…** * You’re a senior engineer (7\+ years) who thrives in small, fast\-moving teams. You know how to balance shipping speed with system quality — and have the scars to prove it. * You think in systems, not sprints. You build things meant to last and take pride in work that quietly scales. * You’re self\-driven and business\-aware. You care about impact, not ceremony — give you context, and you’ll find the leverage points. * You’ve led technical projects end\-to\-end: making architecture calls, managing complexity, and guiding products from idea to production. * You communicate clearly with both engineers and stakeholders. You can explain trade\-offs, own decisions, and stay calm under ambiguity. * You’re fluent in AI — you’ve built or integrated AI products, or you use AI tools regularly to work faster and smarter. * You’re comfortable with our stack or quick to learn: + Rails, Turbo, React on the product side. + Mixpanel or Snowflake dbt Metabase for analytics (we don’t have a dedicated Data team). * You are excited about our engineering principles and most of the Rails doctrine clicks with your style of work. **Bonus points if…** * You’ve worked in B2B SaaS * You’ve interfaced directly with customers — validating solutions, collecting feedback, or supporting launches. **Company Culture** A company culture built on trust, autonomy, and independence **️ We're remote\-first, office\-encouraged** — We work asynchronously and with high trust, but value in\-person collaboration for creativity and speed. * ️ **Flexible working hours** — Work on the schedule that makes you the happiest and productive. **Beautiful office in Gràcia** — One of the best areas in Barcelona. Our offices are much more than just a place to work. We like to see them alive 24/7, filled with friends and creative activities. Want to organise a community event, a breakfast with other designers, developers, etc.? The place is yours. . **International, English\-only speaking environment** — We're building an international team and want to create an inclusive environment where anyone can join any conversation at any time, even if it’s just kitchen talk. That's why you'll find Italian, French or Catalan people talking in English to each other. **What we offer...** **Competitive salary** — our salaries are in the top percentiles of the Barcelona startup scene. **Equity** — By joining the company when the team is so small, you’re helping us set the foundations of our future success. We're asking you to come on an adventure, so if we find a treasure, we want you to get a piece. **️ 30 days per year vacation time** — To relax and recharge your batteries whenever you need to. **The hardware that you need to be most productive.** **Private Health Insurance** — We have partnered with Alan to best take care of our team both in Barcelona and while they’re on the road, covering half of the full price of the medical coverage. **Monthly savings** — Use part of your gross salary for meals, public transport, or nursery services through Cobee and enjoy income tax savings on everyday expenses.
