Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Deepgram is the leading platform underpinning the emerging trillion-dollar Voice AI economy, providing real-time APIs for speech-to-text and text-to-speech. The Engineering Manager will lead a team of engineers to drive the product-led growth strategy, focusing on enhancing customer experiences and product offerings.
Responsibilities
- Lead a team of multi-disciplined software engineers to build our web applications, agentic tooling integrations (MCP servers, SDK experiences), and account management (authorization, billing, analytics) services
- Work closely with the rest of the leadership and product management team on product strategy and roadmap refinement, with a focus on AI-native developer experience
- Oversee technical design, task decomposition, and daily standups to ensure the team is executing on schedule
- Lead the creation of features and product releases by being closely involved with the product development, design, and review—including AI agent playground environments and LLM-powered developer tooling
- Drive the self-serve growth engine: activation funnels, in-product upgrade flows, and PLG experimentation and self serve deployments
- Work with other team leads from across the product organization on cross-functional projects, help identify the critical paths, and resolve dependencies
- Hold regular 1-on-1s with direct reports, help them navigate challenges, and coach them for their career development

- 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.
