Product Director, Common Voice (12 month Fixed-Term)
Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit building a better technology future — powered by people, open by design, fueled by imagination.
We deliver people-first alternatives to today’s extractive systems. We build side by side with developers, innovators and advocates, united in the belief that a better technology future is not only possible — it’s ours to create.
The Tech Platforms team stewards and evolves shared technology platforms that power Mozilla Foundation programs and enable effective, secure, and scalable ways of working. Within the Tech Platforms team, Mozilla Common Voice is the flagship intervention to mitigate bias within AI - in particular by making it possible for speakers of the world’s 7000+ languages, and traditionally marginalized demographic communities, to be represented in AI training sets, and meaningfully engaged in building AI.
Mozilla Common Voice is a data crowdsourcing platform that supports 300+ communities around the world, and to which more than half a million people have contributed. The dataset is used by these communities, and also in technology and research organizations all over the world.
The Common Voice work spans product development, platform engineering, data stewardship, privacy and compliance, and community engagement. The team collaborates closely with contributors, researchers, and partners across regions and languages to ensure the platform remains trustworthy, inclusive, and sustainable while supporting long-term impact and future growth.
The Product Director, Common Voice is responsible for the overall success of the Common Voice project. This role is primarily accountable for product vision, roadmap, prioritization, and long-term direction, while also taking on interim community management responsibilities and providing engineering leadership and delivery oversight.
