About Elloe
Elloe is the real-time immune system for AI.
We don’t just make GenAI compliant — we make it explainable, traceable, and legally defensible. Institutions like the EU Commission, Johns Hopkins, and a Top-5 EU Bank use Elloe to enforce AI safety before it hits production.
Now, as the AI governance narrative accelerates, we need to control the conversation — with speed, precision, and signal.
About the Role
You’ll operate at the center of Elloe’s external perception layer.
This role supports high-stakes moments: press engagement, founder ghostwriting, investor comms, policy response, and narrative positioning.
If you want to learn how strategic comms shapes market perception — and how to use words as weapons — this is the role.
What You’ll Own
1. Narrative Intelligence
- Track what key journalists, regulators, and competitors are saying
- Draft narrative maps and “silent rebuttals” for internal alignment
- Identify moments to respond, stay silent, or asymmetrically reposition
2. Founder-Grade Ghostwriting
- Help craft posts, memos, and press responses in Elloe’s voice
- Refactor product news into regulatory posture or investor signal
- Write with founder-level clarity: sharp, defensible, asymmetric
3. Strategic Surface Management
- Maintain public surface map (LinkedIn, X, press, panels, investors)
- Draft precision copy for investor updates, fundraising, and case study launches
- Help plan external milestones: policy pilots, GTM rollouts, safety wins
Who You Are
- Background in journalism, policy, marketing, or strategic comms
- Can write clearly and strategically — fast
- Obsessed with narrative leverage and media dynamics
- Bonus: experience in tech PR, VC comms, or regulatory strategy
Why This Matters
In a noisy AI market, narrative is moat.
This role helps Elloe shape perception with intention — defending our credibility asset and projecting clarity when it counts.
You’ll leave this role with:
- Ghostwritten artifacts used at founder, investor, and policy level
- First-hand exposure to real-time strategic comms and narrative control
- Proof you can operate inside a fast-scaling, high-trust infrastructure startup
Logistics & Application
- Start Date: Rolling
- Duration: 8–12 weeks
- Compensation: Stipend
- Location: Remote; overlap with SF, NY, DC, or London ideal
- To Apply: Tell us about a campaign or post you’d craft to explain Elloe to the world.
