About ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is an AI research and product company transforming how we interact with technology.

We launched in January 2023 with the first human-like AI voice model. Today, we serve millions of users and thousands of businesses - from fast-growing startups to large enterprises like Deutsche Telekom and Meta. Our investors are some of the world's most prominent, including Andreessen Horowitz, ICONIQ Growth and Sequoia. We've raised $781M in funding and our last valuation was $11B - multiples of 11, always.

We have expanded from voice into three main platforms:

• ElevenAgents enables businesses to deliver seamless and intelligent customer experiences, with the integrations, testing, monitoring, and reliability necessary to deploy voice and chat agents at scale.

• ElevenCreative empowers creators and marketers to generate and edit speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages.

• ElevenAPI gives developers access to our leading AI audio foundational models.

Everything we do is the result of the creativity and commitment of our team - builders doing the best work of their lives. We are researchers, engineers, and operators. IOI medalists and ex-founders. If you want to work hard and create lasting positive impact, we want to hear from you.

How we work

• High-velocity: Rapid experimentation, lean autonomous teams, and minimal bureaucracy.

• Impact not job titles: We don’t have job titles. Instead, it’s about the impact you have. No task is above or beneath you.

• AI first: We use AI to move faster with higher-quality results. We do this across the whole company—from engineering to growth to operations.

• Excellence everywhere: Everything we do should match the quality of our AI models.

• Global team: We prioritize your talent, not your location.

What we offer

• Innovative culture: You’ll be part of a generational opportunity to define the trajectory of AI, surrounded by a team pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

• Growth paths: Joining ElevenLabs means joining a dynamic team with countless opportunities to drive impact - beyond your immediate role and responsibilities.

• Learning & development: ElevenLabs proactively supports professional development through an annual discretionary stipend.

• Social travel: We also provide an annual discretionary stipend to meet up with colleagues each year, however you choose.

• Annual company offsite: Each year, we bring the entire team together in a new location - past offsites have included Croatia and Italy.

• Co-working: If you’re not located near one of our main hubs, we offer a monthly co-working stipend.
