From the employer

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.

You will create sales opportunities for Deepgram as you share our mission with CTOs, VPs of Product, and CEOs. You are a critical component in Deepgram’s Revenue organization and will play a pivotal role in growing our top-line revenue to new heights!

  • Research companies to find new speech recognition use cases and opportunities in the market


You’ll Love This Role If You

  • Value having leadership that has tenure and a track record of success

  • Thrive working with A Players as cross-functional partners across GTM

  • Understand the importance of selling a product that is market validated and can deliver on its technical promise

  • Are passionate about what Deepgram is building and how we are changing what is possible with speech

  • Are eager to launch your sales career towards enterprise sales


It’s Important to Us That You Have

  • 1+ year of customer-facing work experience in SaaS

  • Prior sales experience selling a technical product

  • Dynamic written and verbal communication skills

  • Empathy and a unique ability to understand customer needs

  • Exceptional at prioritizing complex outreach schedules and managing high-frequency touchpoints


It Would Be Great If You Had

  • Experience prospecting companies that fit an ideal customer profile and understanding their business

  • Consistently overachieved against sales targets in past experiences
