The company has raised $781M in funding with a $22B valuation and offers three main platforms: ElevenAgents (for deploying voice and chat agents at scale), ElevenCreative (for generating and editing speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages), and ElevenAPI (providing access to leading AI audio foundational models).
As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will be embedded with ElevenLabs' most strategic customers, taking full ownership of end-to-end execution of major, high-impact projects. You'll work hands-on designing tailored technical solutions, collaborating daily with customer engineering and executive teams to ensure optimal use of ElevenLabs' technologies. Your role spans the full spectrum: from brainstorming technical architectures and product features to building full-scale integrations. You'll drive real innovation by leveraging your coding and technical skills to solve complex problems and help clients achieve their goals while pushing the limits of what's possible with AI voice technology.
The company operates with a high-velocity, impact-driven culture emphasizing rapid experimentation, lean autonomous teams, and minimal bureaucracy. AI-first thinking is embedded across the organization, and excellence is expected in everything delivered. You'll be part of a global team of researchers, engineers, and operators, with growth opportunities extending beyond your immediate role.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Experience working with customers (including student clubs or side projects acceptable if demonstrating genuine interest in technical customer collaboration)
- Proficiency in Python and strong software development knowledge, including deep understanding of software development, software architecture, and API integration
- Excellent communication and problem-solving skills, particularly the ability to summarize complex technical knowledge and apply logic to pursue optimal solutions
The role is remote-first and can be executed from anywhere in the United Kingdom, with a preference for London-based candidates who may work from the office. Regular travel for customer onsites should be expected.
