About Elloe

Elloe is the immune system for AI. We’re the real-time compliance layer that makes GenAI safe to deploy. Our platform traces, flags, and enforces output-level safety in models used by Google, Johns Hopkins, the EU Commission, and a Top-5 EU Bank.

Where others monitor, we protect. We validate over 20M outputs across sectors like healthcare, finance, and public governance — turning hallucinating models into defensible systems. Now we’re scaling fast — and looking for a rare operator to help shape how Elloe grows.

About the Role

This isn’t a typical MBA internship. You’ll work directly with the CEO to pressure-test markets, design GTM experiments, and shape how Elloe turns traction into defensibility.

This role sits at the intersection of:

  • GTM design – Launch playbooks, wedge mechanics, and partner strategy
  • Strategic finance – TAM modeling, pricing, and channel economics
  • Narrative acceleration – Turn signal into strategy and pitchproof

What You’ll Own

  1. Growth Strategy & Market Sizing
  • - Prioritize verticals (health, gov, finance) and define attack strategies
  • Reverse-engineer adjacent wins (e.g., Palantir, Vanta, Scale AI)
  • Build opportunity maps for regulated AI and compliance-as-a-service
  1. Experiment Design & GTM Testing
  • - Frame “test-before-deploy” theses across packaging, pricing, partners
  • Identify inflection triggers for large accounts (e.g., Top 5 bank deployment)
  • Run small but high-signal pilots across GTM surfaces
  1. Investor & GTM Readiness
  • - Create investor material (exit logic, wedge metrics, TAM story)
  • Map buy cycles and “trust unlocks” for regulated deployment
  • Source high-leverage advisors, funds, or strategic intros

Who You Are

  • Strategic Operator: Consulting, venture, or GTM experience at startups or tech-forward firms
  • Deep Generalist: You connect dots across categories and timing curves
  • Bias to Action: You create leverage and don’t wait for permission
  • Narrative-Driven: You think in decks, frameworks, and signal → story

Ideal Background

  • MBA or Master’s candidate at a top-tier program
  • Experience in strategy, investing, growth, or early-stage ops
  • Exposure to AI, SaaS, healthcare, or regulated markets
  • Bonus: GTM tooling (SQL, cold outbound, PowerPoint, Figma decks)

Why This Matters

This is a founder-proximity internship. You’ll sit inside the actual conversations shaping Elloe’s trajectory: GTM wedges, regulatory ops, investor math — not in theory, in motion.

You’ll Leave This Role With

  • Operator-level exposure to AI compliance and startup velocity
  • Referenceable impact on go-to-market and pilot design
  • A front-row seat to building a company that matters

Logistics & Application

  • Start Date: Flexible (Aug–Oct ideal)
  • Duration: 10–12 weeks
  • Compensation: Competitive stipend + pilot bonus eligibility
  • Location: Remote-first; timezone overlap with Austin or NY ideal
  • To Apply: Submit your resume and 2–3 lines on where you'd focus first.

Why work at Elloe AI

  • Mission-driven culture: The team describes itself as “mission-first, values-led,” focused on making AI safe and trustworthy in critical domains.
  • Small, global team: With ~10 employees across three continents, new hires can have outsized impact and direct exposure to founders.
  • Flexible work options: Job postings list “In-Office or Remote” for most roles, with the Austin HQ operating on-site; typical time on-site is listed as “OnSite Workspace” for HQ, but remote arrangements appear available.
  • High-profile visibility: Being a Top 20 finalist at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 gives the company industry recognition and a startup event pedigree.
  • Meaningful impact: The company’s own metrics (100K+ medical errors prevented, $20M+ biased loans blocked) suggest employees contribute to directly measurable social good.
  • Diverse, distributed team: Team members come from backgrounds including Cerner, SAP, Freshworks, Kenya Power, and others, indicating a mix of enterprise and startup experience.
