The Role

Deepgram is a voice company. You will craft the voice of voice. We’re hiring a Brand Copy Lead to be the writer who turns our brand voice from guidelines into living language: campaign concepts, launch headlines, quippy copy, the first thing a voice says when you press play.

You’re a concept-first writer. You can take a brief and craft the core idea into something unmissable. You think like a strategist: you know who we’re talking to, what we need them to believe, and why this channel. And you’re quippy in the way the best brand writers are: sharp, surprising, and never at the expense of clarity.

The Copy Lead sits inside our Brand Studio alongside brand strategy & narrative, design, brand marketing, and web. We’re mid-rebrand, with a new verbal identity landing now. You’ll be the person who brings it to life in market, at speed.

What You’ll Do

Concept and write brand campaigns

• Lead copy concepting for brand campaigns, from the first brief through final lines: develop multiple distinct creative directions, write the headlines, and articulate the idea behind each one.

• Write for the big canvases: out-of-home, audio and podcast, video and launch films, social, sponsorships, and brand activations. Know what a line needs to do at 60 mph, in 6 seconds, or in a booth across a crowded expo floor.

• Partner with design from day one so words and visuals land as one idea, not copy dropped into a layout.

• Adapt campaigns for global markets and audiences, working with regional teams to keep the idea intact and the line locally right.

Bring the brand voice to life everywhere

• Own the application of Deepgram’s verbal identity across every brand surface: website, product launches, events and signage, ads, email, and internal moments.

• Write for voice, literally. Write copy for Deepgram’s website, events, experiential and across at brand moments, so we always speak Deepgram.

• Contribute to naming: products, voices, programs, and campaigns.

Be the brand’s copy bar

• Run brand copy review across the studio: ads, web pages, launch materials, and agency work. Give edits and notes that make the work sharper without flattening it.

• Translate product marketing and technical input into copy that’s accurate and interesting. Know when to push back and when the detail matters.

• Evolve the voice guidelines with what we learn in market: example lines, do/don’t libraries, channel-by-channel tone flex.

Build the copy engine

• Lead with an AI-forward approach. Use and build AI tools (voice copilots, prompt libraries, review workflows) that help the whole company write on-brand, faster.

• Create the playbooks that let the team scale: copy brief templates, review checklists, and channel-specific copy specs.

What You’ll Bring

• 6–8+ years of copywriting experience, with significant time concepting brand campaigns, ideally split between an agency and an in-house team at a fast-moving technology or consumer brand.

• A portfolio that shows ideas, not just execution: campaign concepts, headlines, and lines that made it into the world, with OOH, audio, or video work strongly preferred.

• Strategic thinking. You can read a brief, interrogate it, and explain why your idea is the right answer for the audience and the business.

• A distinctive, quippy voice, and the range to write in someone else’s. You can flex from punchy campaign line to clear product explanation without losing the brand.

• Speed with quality. You can turn around a strong first round in a day when the deadline demands it, and you know when a line isn’t done yet.

• Comfort translating technical products for multiple audiences: developers, enterprise buyers, and the people who influence them.

• A collaborative, low-ego approach to feedback, from giving it to agencies to taking it from product teams.

• Excellent judgment and taste. A point of view on brands, campaigns, and culture, and the curiosity to keep developing it.

Bonus Points

• Experience writing for developer, AI, or other technical brands.

• Experience writing for voice: audio ads, scripts, conversational UI, or voice assistants.

• Naming and verbal identity experience.

• Experience writing for global or APAC markets.
