About ElevenLabs
ElevenLabs is a growth-stage startup that has built the most advanced AI voice models and AI voice products (text to speech, audiobooks creation, dubbing, and the voice library).
We launched in January 2023 and have since reached over 1 million users and partnered with the world’s largest publishers (The New Yorker, The Washington Post, The Atlantic), media companies (Super Hi-Fi, D-ID, Futuri), and gaming studios (Paradox, Cloud Imperium Games, Don’t Nod). We are backed by the leading names in tech and AI (Nat Fridman, Daniel Gross, Andreessen Horowitz, Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger, Oculus VR co-founder Brendan Iribe, Deepmind & Inflection co-founder Mustafa Suleyman, and many others).
We have a unique mix of in-house cutting-edge machine learning research (led by our co-founder Piotr, who was previously a researcher at Google) and strong product-led traction (led by our co-founder Mati, who was at Palantir before and after the IPO).
We have recently concluded our successful Series-B funding round and are hiring to double down on our initial traction to make ElevenLabs a truly generational product company and research lab.
Join us in shaping the future of voice technology.
About the role
The Design team at ElevenLabs is crafting experiences for the next generation of audio workflows using generative AI. You’ll work in entirely new and unexplored problem spaces, like crafting experiences around voice cloning that will allow people to generate content in realistic voices, languages, and accents, to create universally accessible content, safely. You’ll reimagine how creative teams craft sounds just by describing them, and how they bring it all together in one AI-first generative audio platform. The work here has the potential to revolutionize workflows for creators to media and entertainment, publishing giants, to defining entirely new spaces like conversational AI companies.
You will work with our Engineering and AI Research teams to successfully communicate, evolve, and execute a strong product design standard that showcases ElevenLabs as an innovator in the generative AI audio space. You are a crucial component of our company’s growth and product launches through your contributions to short and long-term strategic direction, creating and maintaining high visual standards and a strong focus on user needs. You have an owner’s mentality, taking pride in your work and in your team’s work, and view what you do as a part-owner and builder of ElevenLabs.
You'll work closely with Ammaar Reshi, Nev Flynn, Austin Malerba, and collaborate closely with our frontend engineers to achieve outcomes.
Who we are
We are a young company of highly motivated individuals who work together while being spread across the globe. Each one of us is driven by the pursuit of excellence, supporting one another while taking ownership of our outcomes, and exploring uncharted territories. To thrive in this environment, you embody these attitudes: You are passionate about text-to-speech AI driven by a desire to make content universally accessible and breaking the frontiers of new tech. You are a highly motivated and driven individual with a strong work ethic. Our team is committed to going the extra mile, even if it means working long nights and weekends to achieve our goals. You strive for excellence in every aspect of work, consistently taking ownership of your outcomes and overdelivering on goals. Have a humble attitude and are eager to learn whatever it might take to help your team and our customers succeed.
If you love the intersection of design and engineering, as well as having an interest in the business side this could be a great fit. You might be a designer turned engineer, an engineer turned designer, or an ex-founder.
What you bring
We do not require any formal experience, certifications, or degrees. Instead, we are seeking enthusiastic product designers who can showcase solving impressively hard problems with artifacts such as past projects and designs. Even directly sharing a rough figma of your work is a great way to show us your craft!. We do require:
- Creative thinking toward establishing and executing on the vision for team initiatives. Challenge the status quo, push innovation and inspire people toward a unified outcome.
- Efficiently execute to ship products that deliver impact for our business and customers.
- Partner with the leadership team to successfully communicate concisely across the team and influence product and design outcomes.
- Will work across the entire business stack and make an impact at different stages of the product: building vision & strategy, ensuring all the loose ends are tied up when executing, and making sure the operational components to support onboarding are in place, not just the product
- It is preferred that you can get in the weeds with your engineering partners and make sense of technical constraints, while still pushing forward and maintaining a high design bar and level of execution
- Work closely with stakeholders across the organization, partnering with Engineering, Customer Support, and Growth to define new products and features and launch them
What we offer
- Stock options; we want you to have ownership in the company and share the successes that lie ahead.
- Remote-first; we look at who you are rather than where you live. That’s why we are growing across the globe and support your preferred location. We also have an in-person hub in London and soon in New York.
- Flexible working hours; we are a remote-first company and believe in flexibility.
- Annual company off-sites; the last two were in Portugal and Spain.
- Opportunity to work with a super smart and ambitious group of people.
