About ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs is an AI research and product company transforming how we interact with technology.

We launched in January 2023 with the first human-like AI voice model. Today, we serve millions of users and thousands of businesses - from fast-growing startups to large enterprises like Deutsche Telekom and Meta. Our investors are some of the world's most prominent, including Andreessen Horowitz, ICONIQ Growth and Sequoia. We've raised $781M in funding and our last valuation was $22B - multiples of 11, always.

We have expanded from voice into three main platforms:

• ElevenAgents enables businesses to deliver seamless and intelligent customer experiences, with the integrations, testing, monitoring, and reliability necessary to deploy voice and chat agents at scale.

• ElevenCreative empowers creators and marketers to generate and edit speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages.

• ElevenAPI gives developers access to our leading AI audio foundational models.

Everything we do is the result of the creativity and commitment of our team - builders doing the best work of their lives. We are researchers, engineers, and operators. IOI medalists and ex-founders. If you want to work hard and create lasting positive impact, we want 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 team offsite: Each year, we bring your entire team together in a new location - past offsites have included Croatia, Italy and Cancún

• Co-working: If you're not located near one of our main hubs, we offer a monthly co-working stipend.

About the Role

• Collaborating across teams to maintain US Government compliance certifications and frameworks such as GovRAMP, FedRAMP, CJIS and CMMC.

• Helping to shape ElevenLabs' Enterprise offering towards regulated industries such as Local and State Government, Defense and Finance.

• Building technical documentation to demonstrate our compliance to our customers throughout the stack.

• Assisting the sales team by responding to client security requests and managing compliance-related queries.

• Conduct risk assessments based on CIS or NIST frameworks, document findings, and help teams achieve compliance efficiently.

• Enhance compliance as code tooling to automate monitoring, reporting, and reduce friction for other teams to remain compliant.

Requirements

• Experience in completing vendor security assessments and client security questionnaires in highly regulated industries, such as Government and Defense in the US.

• Strong technical expertise in managing and executing compliance, with hands-on experience using compliance management tools (e.g. Vanta).

• Proven ability to maintain and acquire certifications while managing audit readiness and documentation.

• Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams (sales, engineering, legal) to effectively communicate compliance requirements and ensure smooth operations.

• Experience with public cloud compliance (AWS, GCP, Azure) and automating compliance in cloud environments.

• Familiarity with integrating compliance tools into CI/CD pipelines to automate monitoring and reporting.

Location

This role is remote-first, so it can be executed from the United States, with the ability to operate in Eastern (ET) timezones required. If you prefer, you can work from our offices in New York.

We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability or other legally protected statuses.
