Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This freelance Transcription and Subtitling Specialist role sits at an increasingly important intersection in SaaS: AI-generated media workflows that still require human quality control. ElevenLabs is positioning “Productions” as a marketplace layer on top of its audio platform, which reflects a broader SaaS pattern of pairing self-serve tools with managed services to meet enterprise-grade expectations for accuracy and consistency.
For SaaS professionals, the career value comes from learning how operational quality is maintained when automation is central to the product. Work like this builds fluency in standardized workflows, tooling, and review loops that are common across AI-enabled SaaS offerings, especially where output quality directly affects customer trust. Experience gained here can translate into other platform-based environments that depend on scaled content operations, localization, or human-in-the-loop processes.
This role is best suited to independent operators who prefer clear specifications, measurable output, and repeatable delivery. It will appeal to specialists who enjoy precision work and want to stay close to how AI products are deployed in real customer contexts, without moving into broader project ownership or people management.

Job Description
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.

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.

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.

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.
