Job Description

COMPANY OVERVIEW Deepgram is the leading platform underpinning the emerging trillion-dollar Voice AI economy, providing real-time APIs for speech-to-text (STT), text-to-speech (TTS), and building production-grade voice agents at scale. More than 200,000 developers and 1,300+ organizations build voice offerings that are ‘Powered by Deepgram’, including Twilio, Cloudflare, Sierra, Decagon, Vapi, Daily, Cresta, Granola, and Jack in the Box. Deepgram’s voice-native foundation models are accessed through cloud APIs or as self-hosted and on-premises software, with unmatched accuracy, low latency, and cost efficiency. Backed by a recent Series C led by leading global investors and strategic partners, Deepgram has processed over 50,000 years of audio and transcribed more than 1 trillion words. There is no organization in the world that understands voice better than Deepgram. COMPANY OPERATING RHYTHM At Deepgram, we expect an AI-first mindset—AI use and comfort aren’t optional, they’re core to how we operate, innovate, and measure performance. Every team member who works at Deepgram is expected to actively use and experiment with advanced AI tools, and even build your own into your everyday work. We measure how effectively AI is applied to deliver results, and consistent, creative use of the latest AI capabilities is key to success here. Candidates should be comfortable adopting new models and modes quickly, integrating AI into their workflows, and continuously pushing the boundaries of what these technologies can do. Additionally, we move at the pace of AI.

Change is rapid, and you can expect your day-to-day work to evolve just as quickly. This may not be the right role if you’re not excited to experiment, adapt, think on your feet, and learn constantly, or if you’re seeking something highly prescriptive with a traditional 9-to-5. We're looking for an exceptional corporate lawyer to join our high-impact legal team and own the corporate function at a company operating at the frontier of voice AI. Deepgram is at an inflection point and our legal team has a real seat at the table. We're growing fast, the market is coming to voice, and the decisions we make now about how this company is structured, financed, and governed will set the pace for the next decade. You’ll be the lead lawyer on financing and M&A transactions, IPO readiness, corporate governance, and our international structure — and the person who takes the long view on all of it. This role is ideal for someone with genuine conviction that voice is the most consequential interface with AI, and who wants to build the corporate function of the company defining it. You'll report directly to our General Counsel and help establish a legal function that scales with a company on a steep trajectory, using AI as your default mode of working to set the standard for what AI-native legal work looks like. What You’ll Do - Direct corporate governance at Deepgram, building the habits and systems that help us move with clarity and confidence.
