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.

Role Overview

Deepgram is hiring a Senior Accountant to support the monthly close and core operational accounting as we scale toward audit readiness and IPO. You'll work directly with the Director of Accounting on a small, scrappy finance team — running the day-to-day work that keeps the close clean, the reconciliations tight, and the books trustworthy. This is a hands-on, in-the-weeds role. The Director of Accounting owns the close end-to-end; you'll execute on the work that makes it run — preparing reconciliations, posting journal entries, partnering with our offshore AP team, supporting audit requests, and helping improve close mechanics over time. Plenty of room to grow the scope of what you own as you build trust and as the team scales. 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. Senior Accountants here are expected to use AI in their daily close work and to bring tooling instincts that make the work cleaner and faster.

What You'll Do

• Support monthly, quarterly, and annual GL close — prepare assigned reconciliations, post journal entries, hit close calendar deadlines.
• Prepare account reconciliations across cash, accruals, prepaids, fixed assets, intercompany, AP, and others — with documentation that holds up to audit.
• Prepare recurring and accrual journal entries with appropriate support; flag cutoff or judgment calls to the Director of Accounting.
• Partner with our offshore AP team on day-to-day AP — review their work, handle exceptions and escalations, support vendor onboarding, and prepare AP reconciliations.
• Process and review expense reports; support intercompany, fixed asset, and prepaid schedules.
• Contribute to flux analysis — pull the variances, draft initial commentary, escalate the unexplained ones to the Director of Accounting.
• Support external audit PBC requests — pull the documentation, prepare the schedules, respond to auditor questions on assigned areas.
• Follow and help improve the close playbook the Director of Accounting maintains.
