Director, Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting

Deepgram is hiring a Director, Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting to help prepare the company for its first external audit and, ultimately, for public markets. You'll report directly to the Chief Accounting Officer and work alongside a small, scrappy finance team.

Requirements

• Active CPA, with a strong Big 4 or national firm foundation.
• 8+ years of progressive experience in technical accounting and/or financial reporting, with deep fluency in US GAAP.
• Hands-on technical range across revenue (606), equity comp (718), leases (842), and business combinations (805) — you can take on a gnarly issue and come back with a defensible memo you drafted yourself.
• Experience preparing GAAP financial statements and footnotes from scratch, not just reviewing them.
• Experience managing external auditors and external accounting consultants — you know how to scope, direct, and push back.
• A builder's instinct — comfort with ambiguity, no waiting for playbooks, strong bias to ship.
• A demonstrated AI-native working style — you use LLMs daily for drafting, research, and analysis, and can talk concretely about what these tools do well and where they fall short for accountants.
• Strong written and verbal communication — you can translate technical accounting for non-accountants without losing precision.
• Comfort vibe-coding small scripts or automations (Python, SQL, etc.) to accelerate your own work.
• High integrity, high ownership, low ego.
