## About the role

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.

## What they're looking for

- We care more about expertise and leadership than years of experience
- Deep experience designing conversational behavior for LLM-based voice agents or assistants, not only scripted IVR flows
- Real fluency with the speech pipeline, from ASR through LLM to TTS, and a working understanding of where design decisions actually live inside it
- A track record designing turn-taking, interruption, repair, and confirmation patterns that shipped and held up in production
- Evidence of building quality measurement into the practice: evals, transcript review, benchmarks, or a structured failure-analysis loop
- Exceptional writing craft, including sample dialogs, design guidance, and documentation that others can build against
