Deepgram jobs, judged for you, free

What they do

Deepgram makes a voice AI platform. Its APIs, ways for other software to call it, turn speech into text and text into speech in real time, and run voice agents. Its models run in its cloud or on a customer's own servers. Over 200,000 developers and 1,300 organizations build on it, including Twilio and Cloudflare.

What they value

• Collaborative: be generous and help each other.
• Be curious, and challenge the status quo.
• Grow together, and bring out the best in each other.
• Do the right thing: be kind and assume the best intentions.
• Think smart, act fast: value analysis, but not to the point of paralysis.
• Put the customer first: listen to customers to learn their goals.

Where they hire

Deepgram is remote-first, and 86 of the 91 Postings are remote. Most are remote in the USA. Others are in San Francisco, New York, Washington D.C., Ann Arbor, London, Singapore, Sydney, and remote in Europe or Asia Pacific. Some US roles need Eastern or Pacific time. Two Singapore roles do not sponsor an Employment Pass.

What they look for

Every Posting asks for an AI-first way of working. Staff must use AI tools, and even build their own, in daily work, and Deepgram measures how well they apply AI. Postings warn the pace is fast and not a traditional 9-to-5. Backend roles ask for 3 or more years in industry, Rust, C, or C++, Python, and UNIX-style systems. Applied AI roles ask for 4 or more years of backend work in production. Customer-facing roles ask for fluency with APIs and real technical conversations. Pre-sales roles include up to 50 percent travel.
