About ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs creates the most realistic, versatile and contextually-aware AI voices. We're the leaders in voice technology with our cutting-edge research and products that enable our customers to generate content at scale.

We’re redefining the future of voice technology, and as a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE), you’ll play a critical role in making that happen. You'll collaborate closely with some of the world’s biggest names in publishing, video games, and entertainment to help them unlock the full potential of our cutting-edge AI-driven voice technology.

Join us in shaping the future of voice technology.

About the role

We are looking for Backend engineers to expand the functionality of our system. There is flexibility in staffing engineers on projects across the company, depending on the project, your specific responsibilities might include:  

  • Building and maintaining our platform on top of our cutting-edge voice models, which are used by millions of users.

  • Improving our existing products to ensure that they’re intuitive, powerful and make innovative use of our research team’s latest break-throughs. This could involve adding significant functionality, or building integrations with other common consumer/enterprise solutions.

  • Maintaining and strengthening our internal infrastructure as we scale and grow to ensure that our products remain live, performant and secure.

  • Collaborating closely with engineers and others from the Frontend, Growth and Sales teams to understand, and design solutions for our customers.

Who you are

We’re a global team of innovators passionate about pushing the boundaries of voice AI. You’ll thrive with us if:

  • You’re driven by making content accessible and love exploring cutting-edge tech.

  • You go the extra mile, taking ownership of your work and striving for excellence.

  • You’re humble, eager to learn, and always ready to help your team and customers succeed.

What you bring

We do not require any formal experience, certifications, or degrees. Instead, we are seeking enthusiastic software engineers who can showcase solving impressively hard problems with artifacts such as past projects, or GitHub contributions. We do require:

  • Expertise in Python.

  • A strong background in backend development.

  • Familiarity with common software and system design patterns and infrastructure including APIs, cloud infrastructure tools, storage solutions, data structures etc.

  • Knowledge about test design and security fundamentals.

What is nice to have:

  • Experience with Kubernetes.

  • Experience with Stripe or other payment processing providers.

  • Basics about how AI models work.

What we offer

  • Stock options; we want you to have ownership in the company and share the successes that lie ahead. That’s why we offer early employees stock options as part of their compensation package.

  • Remote-first; we look at who you are rather than where you live. Our core hours are 2pm to 6pm GMT. As long as you are able to cover them, we support your preferred location.

  • Huge impact; there’s no endless debugging or refactoring of legacy code. You’ll ship features impacting millions of users, and contribute to the infrastructure supporting it all.

  • Extraordinary team; we favor ambitious, smart people striving for outsized impact. You’ll work on the state of the art surrounded by people with extraordinary skills and positive attitudes.

  • Flexible working hours; besides our core hours, you build your day the way you prefer.

  • Annual company off-sites; the last two were in Portugal and Switzerland. Next stop: Croatia!

  • We offer competitive compensation and are open to candidates from mid - to staff level. Given the broad range, we'll be happy to discuss specific salary details during our initial conversation.
