About ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is a research and product company defining the frontier of audio AI. Millions of people use our technology to read articles, voice over videos, and restore voices lost to disability. Leading developers and enterprises worldwide use ElevenLabs to build intelligent agents for support, sales, and education.

We launched in January 2023 with the first AI model to cross the threshold of human-like speech. In January 2025, we raised a $180 million Series C round, valuing the company at $3.3 billion. By September 2025, that valuation doubled to $6.6 billion as we surpassed $200 million ARR in under three years.

Our mission is to build the most important audio AI platform in the world, solve AI audio intelligence, and make information accessible in any voice, language, or sound.

Our core offerings are our Creative Platform and the Agents Platform, powered by proprietary Text to Speech, Speech to Text, and conversational AI models.

We are just getting started. If you want to work hard and create lasting impact, we would like 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.
  • About the role

    As a Forward Deployed Engineer Strategist, you'll work as part of a driven and creative team of Engineers, Product Designers, and other Strategists to deploy our voice AI technology against the most challenging problems our customers face. Your mission is to synthesize disconnected streams of thought into a cohesive understanding of what the most important problem is, what the data means, what the product needs, what users are motivated by, and where the impact could be.

    No two days are the same, but as a FDE Strategist you can expect to :

  • Meet with strategic customers to understand their critical audio and voice AI needs and locate their biggest pain points.
  • Identify relevant use cases through deep engagement with customer problems and workflows, and work with Engineers to implement our voice and audio AI technology into innovative solutions.
  • Design and architect bespoke integrations for customers, ensuring our technology fits seamlessly into their products and operations.
  • Guide customers on best practices for implementing our voice and audio AI models to maximize their effectiveness.
  • Present the results of our work and proposals for future work to audiences ranging from technical teams to C-suite executives.
  • Collaborate with our Research and Product teams to incorporate field insights into ElevenLabs' software products and AI models.
  • Build and deliver compelling demos of our voice and audio AI technology to new and existing customers.
  • Scope out potential applications in new industries and expand our AI solutions across different sectors globally.
  • Take full ownership of end-to-end execution of major projects for our most strategic partners, working hands-on to deliver high-impact solutions.
  • Collaborate daily with our customers' engineering and executive teams to ensure optimal implementation of ElevenLabs' technologies.
  • Requirements

  • Experience working with customers in a technical capacity. It's ok if you only worked with customers in student clubs or side projects, as long as you are interested in working closely with them.
  • Basic proficiency in Python and understanding of API integration to implement scripts and help with prototyping / demo building.
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills, especially in terms of ability to summarize complex technical concepts and using logic in pursuing optimal solutions.
  • A proven track record of taking ownership of complex projects and delivering results.
  • Adaptability to work across different customer environments and technical use cases.
  • Technical aptitude to quickly understand our voice and audio AI models and their applications.
  • Location

    This role is remote and can be executed globally. If you prefer, you can work from our offices in Bangalore, Dublin, London, New York, San Francisco, Tokyo, and Warsaw.
