We closed our Series-C funding at a 3.3B valuation at the beginning of this year and are backed by the leading names in tech and AI (a16z, ICONIQ, NEA, Sequoia, NFDG, Salesforce, and many others).

We are at an exciting phase of our growth and innovation and are looking for ambitious people to help us further push the boundaries of voice AI. This is a rare chance to be an early member of a company on the rise. If this excites you, we want to meet you! 

Who we are

A global team of passionate and innovative individuals united by curiosity and a shared goal: to be the first choice for AI audio solutions. Together, we are shaping a new technology and market from the ground up. We innovate quickly and take pride in getting things right, from the big picture initiatives to the details that keep us moving smoothly every day. We work with high autonomy and accountability where the best idea wins at any time and from anyone. 

About the role 

ElevenLabs Productions is a new marketplace that brings together AI audio tools and human experts to unlock high-quality transcripts, translations, dubs, and other audio productions in 30+ languages at scale for our users and customers.

Here are a few recent projects Productions has helped bring to life:

  • Dubbing content from top YouTube creators

  • Producing multi-lingual audio for TV shows and podcasts by some of the world’s most exciting media companies 

  • AI voices used in feature films

As a Production Manager, you drive the success of Productions for your language, including:

  • Onboarding and training linguists and other audio professionals (Producers) from your language group to use the ElevenLabs platform

  • Building quality control and monitoring systems for your language to ensure the transcripts, dubs, and other content we deliver sound natural and professional-grade 

  • Discovering and driving language-specific optimizations we can make to our models and platform, in close collaboration with our product team

Who you are

We're looking for exceptional individuals who combine technical excellence with ethical awareness, who are excited by hard problems and motivated by human impact. You’ll strive with us if you: 

  • Are passionate about audio AI driven by a desire to make content universally accessible and breaking the frontiers of new tech.  

  • Are a highly motivated and driven individual with a strong work ethic. Our team is aware of this critical moment of audio AI evolution and is committed to going the extra mile to lead. 

  • Are analytical, efficient, and strive on solving complex challenges with a first principles mindset. 

  • Consistently strive for excellence, delivering high-quality work quickly and exceeding expectations.

  • Take initiative and work autonomously from day one, prioritizing learning and contribution while leaving ego aside.

What you bring

While we don’t require any formal experience, certifications, or degrees, the following will set you apart as a candidate for a Linguist Manager role:

  • Native speaker of or native-level knowledge of one or more of the languages we support

  • Experience running a text or audio production team for a language service provider (LSP), localization agency, media company, or similar for one or multiple of the following:

    • Transcripts

    • Translations

    • Dubs

    • Post-processing / mixing

  • Strong attention to detail: you should have keen eyes and ears in your native language and be capable of spotting even the smallest inconsistencies or mistakes that keep something from reading or sounding 100% natural.

  • Comfortable giving feedback: you will be responsible for the quality of content the team produces in your language and should feel comfortable setting and maintaining a high bar.

  • Bonus points for:

    • Familiarity with the ElevenLabs platform, including our transcript editor, Studio, and dubbing products

    • Native-level abilities in multiple non-English languages

What we offer

At ElevenLabs, our biggest reward is shaping the future of voice technology. In addition, we offer all Linguist Managers:

  • Competitive compensation: Including both a base salary and variable volume-based component that can grow as our marketplace grows.

  • Growth potential and high ceiling: Productions is just getting started. You have the opportunity to grow with us and take on new challenges as we build the world’s biggest community of audio professionals.

  • A truly global team: Collaboration with teammates across 30+ countries, a global customer footprint and office hubs in New York, London and Warsaw. Annual company offsite for the whole team to get together (the last one in Croatia!) 

  • Remote first: We prioritize your talent, not your location, with structured asynchronous workflows for maximum impact and minimal meetings.

  • Continuous growth: Collaborate with AI leaders, shape your path, and contribute where you excel most.
