Company Operating Rhythm 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.
Every team member who works at Deepgram is expected to actively use and experiment with advanced AI tools, and even build your own into your everyday work. We measure how effectively AI is applied to deliver results, and consistent, creative use of the latest AI capabilities is key to success here. Candidates should be comfortable adopting new models and modes quickly, integrating AI into their workflows, and continuously pushing the boundaries of what these technologies can do.
Additionally, we move at the pace of AI. Change is rapid, and you can expect your day-to-day work to evolve just as quickly. This may not be the right role if you’re not excited to experiment, adapt, think on your feet, and learn constantly, or if you’re seeking something highly prescriptive with a traditional 9-to-5.
The Opportunity
We’re hiring a Revenue Accounting Manager to own the revenue close and the monthly application of ASC 606 as Deepgram scales through its first external audit. You’ll report to the Director, Revenue Accounting and manage our revenue accountant.
Customers commit to a dollar amount up front, usually over a twelve to twenty-four month term, and draw it down on API usage. Alongside that we run a self-serve consumption business, plus arrangements involving credits, overage, trained models, concurrency, and more.
We’re working through our 606 positions now, which means the person in this seat helps shape them rather than inheriting them. We’re looking for someone who can carry a position from the guidance through to a schedule an auditor can test, a process that holds up every month once volume inevitably doubles, and an explanation other teams can follow when they want to know why we’re asking. Plenty of people have depth in one of those, but fewer carry all three end to end. You’ll own the close and the schedules underneath it, and build the rest alongside the Director, Revenue Accounting and the Director, Technical Accounting. Controls get designed in partnership rather than handed down, and because the process, reporting, and automation we need are mid-flight, you’ll spend real time with CS, Sales, and Engineering.
The person who does well here would rather build the schedule than take one as given, and stays curious about what’s happening in the business behind the number, because the answer usually comes from a conversation with Sales, CS, or Engineering rather than from the ledger.
What You'll Do
Run the monthly revenue close. Enterprise committed usage, self-serve consumption, and direct entries, reconciled and tied out on the same date every month. Self-serve comes in through the payments stack, and building that into the close cleanly is part of the work.
Own contract liability and deferred revenue. By customer and by contract, tying to the GL and rebuildable from source rather than rolled forward on faith.
