Check out Blindsight by Peter Watts.

Fun fact, Blindsight is online free at the author's web site: https://www.rifters.com/real/Blindsight.htm

The vampires appear in Chapter 1, after the Prologue.

Such a good book. The vampires seem out of place in the hard sci-fi setting at first, but I think it’s actually quite well done, and ends up being very thematically relevant in the story.
