Developer Experience Engineer
About ElevenLabs
ElevenLabs is a research and product company defining the frontier of Audio AI. Millions of individuals use ElevenLabs to read articles, voice over their videos, and reclaim voices lost from disability. And the leading developers and enterprises use ElevenLabs to create Conversational AI agents for support, sales, and education.
ElevenLabs launched in January 2023 with the first AI model to cross the threshold of human-like speech. In January 2025, we raised a $180 million Series C round, valuing ElevenLabs at $3.3 billion. The round was co-led by Andreessen Horowitz and ICONIQ Growth, with continued support from the leading names in tech, including Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger, Oculus VR co-founder Brendan Iribe, DeepMind and Inflection co-founder Mustafa Suleyman, and many others.
ElevenLabs is only 2 years old and scaling rapidly. We are just getting started. If you want to work hard and have an incredible impact, we would love 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
Learning & development: Annual discretionary stipend towards professional development.
Social travel: Annual discretionary stipend to meet up with colleagues each year, however you choose.
Annual company offsite: We bring the entire company together at a new location every year.
Co-working: If you’re not located near one of our main hubs, we offer a monthly co-working stipend.
About the role
We are looking for our first internal Developer Experience Engineer to improve developer productivity, simplify workflows, and optimize tooling for our growing engineering team.
Your general responsibilities will include:
Diagnosing and addressing bottlenecks in current developer workflows and tools.
Standardizing local development setups, CI/CD pipelines, dependency management, and testing infrastructure.
Be the internal expert on modern tooling, especially NextJS, Python, and CI/CD practices.
Specific projects might include:
Reducing flaky tests.
Establishing a standardized local development environment.
Creating processes for adopting new tools and workflows efficiently.
Optimizing build performance.
Requirements
We do not require formal certifications or degrees, but we are looking for demonstrated experience improving developer productivity and tooling, ideally as an early DX hire in a growing engineering organisation.
We do require:
2+ years of relevant experience improving developer productivity and tooling.
Strong expertise with modern developer tools (Python, NextJS or similar frontend bundlers, CI/CD pipelines).
Proven success in identifying and solving complex bottlenecks in complex, organically grown codebases.
Structured and proactive mindset capable of designing clear, intuitive, and sustainable workflows from ambiguous requirements.
