About the role

  • 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.
  • There is no organization in the world that understands voice better than Deepgram.
  • 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.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and optimize Deepgram's global network for real-time audio streaming, minimizing latency across geographic regions
  • Design and manage CDN and edge computing strategies to bring processing closer to end users
  • Configure and maintain BGP routing, including peering relationships and route optimization for multi-cloud and bare metal environments
  • Implement and tune load balancing solutions that intelligently distribute traffic across heterogeneous infrastructure (cloud, bare metal, GPU clusters)
  • Build and optimize multi-cloud networking architectures spanning AWS, other cloud providers, and on-premises data centers
  • Design and maintain bare metal networking including top-of-rack switching, spine-leaf architectures, and high-bandwidth GPU interconnects
  • Develop latency measurement, monitoring, and optimization tooling to continuously improve network performance
  • Collaborate with infrastructure and platform teams to ensure network designs support both real-time inference and large-scale training workloads
  • Want to design global network infrastructure for a platform that processes real-time audio at massive scale

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in network engineering, including design, implementation, and operations
  • Strong understanding of CDN architectures and content delivery optimization
  • Practical experience with bare metal networking -- switch configuration, VLAN design, physical infrastructure
  • Experience with network monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance analysis tools
  • Experience with real-time streaming protocols (WebSocket, WebRTC, RTP/RTSP) and optimizing networks for media traffic
  • Experience with multi-cloud networking spanning AWS, GCP, and/or Azure
  • Experience with anycast routing and global traffic management

Compensation

  • Annual wellness stipend
