About the role
What You’ll Do
- Be the go-to counsel for our data and research teams on the legal questions inside model development, and design the frameworks that let research move fast with confidence
- Partner with our product teams to ship products and features that delight our users
- Draft and review the consumer-facing terms, policies, disclosures, and marketing that go with our products — written for customers, not lawyers
- Continue building out our privacy program — and tell its story to customers — to deepen customer trust in our products
- Stay ahead of the AI legal frameworks developing internationally, translate developments into principles and policies our teams can act on, and help Deepgram develop a clear point of view on responsible AI development
- Develop deep expertise across the legal questions defining AI today, and help advance how our company, and the broader field, thinks about them
- Build the AI-native legal function at Deepgram with workflows and systems that scale our team’s impact

- Demonstrated experience counseling product, research, or engineering teams on the legal questions that come up in how AI gets built and deployed
- Fluency in the issues that matter most to us: privacy, IP, data licensing, consumer protection, and the international AI regulatory landscape
- Recognize that law is about the grey areas, and are comfortable living in them, while giving clear and actionable advice
- An AI-native legal practice — workflows you've built into your own work, not just tools you've used
- Exceptional writing — precise, plain, and compelling
Nice-to-Haves
- Hands-on experience at a foundation model company or AI research lab — you've seen how legal questions actually arise inside model development
