Job Description
Audio Engineer
Deepgram
• Identify and correct audio artifacts, loudness inconsistencies, frequency imbalances, and sibilance issues across large-scale voice datasets. • Design and implement scalable audio processing pipelines for voice data • Define and implement scalable audio processing pipelines (EQ, compression, de-essing, dynamic range optimization) and normalization strategies across inter- and intra- voice recordings. • Optimize audio quality across real and synthetic voices to ensure a consistent product experience across multiple use cases. • Lead audio quality decisions during on-site voice actor recording sessions, including microphone selection, placement, gain staging, and environment setup. • Define, document, and enforce audio quality standards for external vendors, including recording setup requirements, signal characteristics, and post-processing expectations, ensuring vendor-produced audio meets Deepgram’s training and product needs even when recordings are not done on-site. • Convert expert-driven, manual audio workflows into automated, repeatable, code-based systems. • Collaborate closely with research to improve training data quality, especially TTS speaker-specific fine-tuning. • Contribute to synthetic data pipelines by defining and validating acoustic characteristics, guiding how different “sound profiles” should be produced and evaluated.
Job Requirements
- Professional audio engineering experience (studio, podcast, radio, live sound, or equivalent).
- Deep understanding of EQ, compression, limiting, de-essing, and mastering techniques.
- Strong familiarity with professional audio tools (Adobe Audition, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, or similar).
- Hands-on experience with FFmpeg and command-line audio processing tools.
- Solid understanding of microphone characteristics, placement, and acoustic principles.
- A highly trained ear for subtle audio quality differences across voices and environments.
- Programming ability (Python preferred) to automate and scale audio workflows.
- Experience building custom audio plugins or DSP tools.
- Open-source contributions to audio or signal-processing projects.
- Background in batch or programmatic audio processing at scale.
- Familiarity with ML audio preprocessing for ASR or TTS.
- Experience managing large-scale audio datasets.
- Comfort working in creative/audio communities and technical open-source ecosystems.

• Apply Lessons Learned From Domain Leaders: Bring practical, everyday lessons learned and experiences from other areas, domains and professions to this problem space. • Engineer Semantic Services: Co-design and build the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) components responsible for the lifecycle of semantic data. Your software enables ingestion, abstraction, curation, and publication, versioning, governance & distribution of semantic resources—encompassing formal biomedical ontologies, standard terminologies, and reference lists—integrating them directly into data-in-flight services. • Data Engineering for Continuous Modeling: Develop and deploy ETL pipelines that lift instance-level data into formal vocabularies. You will ensure these pipelines capture the nuanced aspects of the model, including complex relationships, properties, and constraints. • Living Ontology Development: Build services that project formal semantic meaning across the Tetra ecosystem, helping to formalize a "living," real-world ontology that evolves with our data and its usage. • Partner as a Force Multiplier: Collaborate with Scientific Data Engineers, Architects, and Business Leads to integrate semantic artifacts technically. You will provide subject matter expertise, coaching, and training on the governance of controlled vocabularies, ensuring formal semantics and structure are applied consistently across platform applications. • Vocabulary Management: Develop software enabling management of the full lifecycle of our formal vocabularies. You will implement robust systems for versioning, deprecating, and migrating vocabularies across our customer base to ensure seamless operations. • Engineering Mentorship: Serve as the "Informatics SME" for the engineering organization. You will partner with and mentor technical team members—ranging from pure software engineers to scientists—on how to leverage semantic artifacts to provide data with formal definitions, meaning, and context. • Data Exchange Standards: Co-design the "handshake" protocols for data exchange between platform components. You will iteratively develop these standards to ensure that data leaving one system is deterministically understood by another, handling the complex mapping and transformation logic required for true syntactic and semantic interoperability.

Role Description Lyrebird is scaling fast, and our Forward Deployed Engineer is how we get complex enterprise integrations across the line. You'll own the technical relationship with hospitals, health systems, and large clinical groups, building the integrations and custom solutions that turn enterprise conversations into signed contracts and live deployments. Most of what you ship will land in the core platform, so your work has lasting impact well beyond any individual deal. This role suits a developer who thrives outside a purely product-focused environment, someone energised by variety, comfortable switching between a pre-sales call and a pull request, and who takes pride in making complex things feel simple for customers. You're as comfortable whiteboarding an architecture as writing the code that implements it. Qualifications - Strong TypeScript and JavaScript skills, with experience building and consuming REST APIs - Experience designing secure integrations, including OAuth, token-based auth, and regulated environments - Comfort across the full delivery cycle, from prototyping through to production - Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders Requirements - Experience with healthcare data standards such as HL7, FHIR, or MLLP - Familiarity with C#, PHP, or Java - Prior experience in a customer-facing or forward-deployed engineering role Benefits - The code you write will help clinicians spend less time on documentation and more time with patients, something you'll see reflected in the feedback we get every day. - We're building a team that reflects the diversity of the people who benefit from our work. - We want Lyrebird to be a place where everyone feels safe, supported, and able to thrive. - If you're from an underrepresented background in tech, we strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet every requirement. - We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. - These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. - If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
