APAC Partner Business Development Manager

Company Overview Deepgram is the leading platform underpinning the emerging trillion-dollar Voice AI economy, providing real-time APIs for speech-to-text (STT), text-to-speech (TTS), and building production-grade voice agents at scale. More than 200,000 developers and 1,300+ organizations build voice offerings that are ‘Powered by Deepgram’, including Twilio, Cloudflare, Sierra, Decagon, Vapi, Daily, Cresta, Granola, and Jack in the Box. 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. Backed by a recent Series C led by leading global investors and strategic partners, Deepgram has processed over 50,000 years of audio and transcribed more than 1 trillion words. There is no organization in the world that understands voice better than Deepgram. 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. Deepgram is the Voice AI platform powering the next generation of enterprise voice agents, contact centers, and real-time speech applications. As we continue expanding globally, APAC represents one of our highest-growth strategic regions for partner-led expansion. We are hiring an APAC Partner Business Development Manager to build and scale Deepgram’s partner ecosystem across ANZ, ASEAN, Japan, Korea, India, and Greater China. In this role, you will drive sell-to, sell-through, and sell-with motions alongside strategic partners including hyperscalers, ISVs, CCaaS/CX platforms, GSIs, telcos, and regional system integrators. This is a highly cross-functional, builder-oriented role focused on growing partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue across diverse APAC markets. You’ll work closely with Sales, Solutions Engineering, Product, Marketing, and global partner teams to establish Deepgram as a leading Voice AI platform in the region. If you thrive in fast-moving environments, enjoy building new GTM motions, and are excited about shaping the future of AI partnerships in APAC, we’d love to meet you. What You’ll Do Drive Region
