About the role

  • Partner with hiring managers to define role scope, leveling, and interview plans that account for both business needs and regional talent realities.
  • Build proactive sourcing strategies for niche and senior-level technical talent in the US and abroad.
  • Evaluate candidates for technical depth, impact, and alignment with Deepgram’s values across different cultural and regional contexts.

  • Use data and funnel metrics to diagnose issues, improve signal quality, and increase hiring velocity globally.

  • Comfort operating in ambiguity and helping teams sharpen what “good” looks like across different regions.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills and the confidence to push back when needed.
