Requirements
• 5+ years in talent research, executive search, or high-complexity sourcing with a strong analytical component. • Proven ability to build org charts and talent maps across technical domains- ideally within AI, ML infrastructure, speech, or other frontier technologies. • Fluency in sourcing and research tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn Insights, data tools, structured spreadsheets, and ATS workflows). Bonus if you enjoy systematizing messy inputs. • An analytical mindset. You don’t just collect names- you synthesize patterns and generate insight. • Strong written communication. Most of our collaboration is async. Your output needs to be crisp, structured, and easy to act on. • Comfort operating in ambiguity. Deepgram is high-velocity and iterative. • Bonus if you’ve mapped talent in: • AI/ML research labs • Speech or audio ML • Developer infrastructure • Usage-based SaaS companies • High-growth technical startups
Responsibilities
• Build and maintain deep talent maps across priority domains. • Map org structures at leading AI labs, voice startups, hyperscalers, and adjacent infra companies. Identify key builders, not just visible title holders. • Translate ambiguous hiring signals into structured research plans. • Partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to clarify “what good looks like,” define search criteria, and deliver actionable longlists quickly. • Deliver market intelligence that shapes strategy. • Provide insights on compensation bands, geographic clustering, hiring velocity, emerging companies, and adjacent talent pools. Help leadership understand not just who to hire- but where and why. • Create just-in-time readiness. • Maintain evergreen longlists in core verticals (Research, Applied ML, Infra Engineering, Technical Product, GTM) so we can move with speed when headcount opens. • Improve research infrastructure. • Refine our workflows, tooling, documentation, and data hygiene. We operate in Ashby and modern sourcing tools- but the system only scales if the underlying thinking is sharp. • Move fast with quality. • Within days of a role intake, deliver structured longlists, org breakdowns, and competitive snapshots to accelerate calibration and outreach.
Benefits
• HOLISTIC HEALTH • Annual wellness stipend • Mental health support • Life, STD, LTD Income Insurance Plans • WORK/LIFE BLEND • Unlimited PTO • Generous paid parental leave • Flexible schedule • 12 Paid US company holidays • Quarterly personal productivity stipend • One-time stipend for home office upgrades • 401(k) plan with company match • Tax Savings Programs • CONTINUOUS LEARNING • Learning / Education stipend • Participation in talks and conferences • Employee Resource Groups • AI enablement workshops / sessions • For candidates outside of the US, we use an Employer of Record model in many countries, which means benefits are administered locally and governed by country-specific regulations. Because of this, benefits will differ by region — in some cases international employees receive benefits US employees do not, and vice versa. As we scale, we will continue to evaluate where we can create more alignment, but a 1:1 global benefits structure is not always legally or operationally possible. • Backed by prominent investors including Y Combinator, Madrona, Tiger Global, Wing VC and NVIDIA, Deepgram has raised over $215M in total funding.
