Company Operating Rhythm
Deepgram is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager (Engineering) to drive execution across complex, cross-functional programs involving both software and hardware. In this role, you’ll work closely with our engineering and research teams to manage large-scale, technically demanding initiatives—from inception through delivery.
You’ll thrive here if you enjoy creating clarity out of complexity, organizing ambiguous requirements into coherent roadmaps, and getting into the technical weeds to keep programs moving forward. We’re looking for someone who has led large, multi-disciplinary initiatives and can partner with researchers, engineers, and business stakeholders to align teams and outcomes.
What You’ll Do
Own the end-to-end delivery of technical programs, many of which span hardware, software, and research efforts
Define workstreams, set milestones, and coordinate execution across multiple teams and functions
Serve as the connective tissue between engineering, research, product, and operations to ensure aligned priorities and timelines
Proactively identify and resolve bottlenecks, trade-offs, and interdependencies
Dive deep into technical topics to ensure risks are understood and addressed early
Build lightweight processes and tooling to help teams scale sustainably
You’ll Love This Role If You
Are passionate about building reliable, scalable, cutting-edge AI infrastructure
Enjoy optimizing complex distributed systems for performance and cost
Love solving challenging problems in compute, networking and storage at global scale
Are excited about working with cutting-edge GPU infrastructure, and frontier research in ML architecture
Want to work at the intersection of humans and AI/ML systems
It’s Important To Us That You Have
5+ years of program management experience leading large, cross-functional initiatives
Strong technical acumen—bonus if you’ve been an engineer or worked closely with applied-ML teams
Experience coordinating programs that touch both hardware and software domains
AI forward program management practices and processes
Proven ability to thrive in high-growth or startup environments
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and helping others do the same
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
It Would Be Great if You Had
Familiarity with AI/ML workloads and their infrastructure requirements
Knowledge of cost optimization for cloud and on-premise infrastructure
Experience with multi-region, multi-cloud infrastructure deployment
Background in performance optimization for distributed systems
Experience with software-defined infrastructure and networking
Certification and/or hands on experience with relevant cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure)
