Job description
Internship | Remote | Regulatory Strategy | Reports to CEO or Head of Risk

About Elloe
Elloe is the trust layer for AI.
We’re not just a compliance tool — we’re the enforcement infrastructure that makes AI safe to use in hospitals, governments, and financial institutions.

From the EU AI Act to NIH trials, we’ve been selected to define how GenAI gets deployed under real regulation. We’ve flagged Article 10/14 violations for the European Commission, enabled IRB-approved LLMs in healthcare, and logged GDPR violations in real-time for a Top-5 EU bank.
Now, we’re scaling our regulatory posture — and we’re looking for someone who understands how risk becomes strategy.

About the Role
This is a rare legal + policy internship that sits inside a fast-moving AI company.
You’ll help decode regulatory frameworks and turn them into leverage: for GTM, product, investor comms, and trust positioning.
This is not theory. You’ll be briefing our CEO and product team on what the AI Act actually means for deployment. You’ll help define how Elloe becomes the reference standard for enforcement.

What You’ll Own
1. Policy Intelligence
  • Track and summarize updates across the EU AI Act, HIPAA, GDPR, and global AI frameworks
  • Build internal briefing docs for the exec team and GTM leads
  • Maintain an Elloe-centric compliance map to support product + sales
2. Risk Translation
  • Help translate legal provisions into practical product logic
  • Create policy-to-product tables for TruthChecker™, AutoRAG™, and Autopsy™
  • Collaborate with product to inform enforcement use cases
3. Strategic Posture
  • Draft external-facing whitepapers, one-pagers, or support materials for regulator engagement
  • Inform GTM strategy by highlighting early enforcement signals in health, gov, and finance
  • Support positioning Elloe as “compliance infrastructure,” not a feature

Who You Are
  • Law, policy, international relations, or ethics grad student
  • Strong writing and synthesis skills — can turn a policy doc into a memo, fast
  • Interest in AI, governance, or compliance tech
  • Bonus: Prior work on AI ethics, IRBs, digital rights, or regtech frameworks

Why This Matters
Elloe is defining what enforcement looks like in GenAI.
Your work will directly shape how regulators, buyers, and investors understand what “safe deployment” means — and who they trust to deliver it.

You’ll leave this role with:
  • Real contributions to Elloe’s AI Act, HIPAA, and IRB frameworks
  • Strategic experience working with product and GTM on risk-informed deployments
  • Visibility into how startups shape — not follow — policy

Logistics & Application
  • Start Date: Flexible (Q3–Q4 ideal)
  • Duration: 10–12 weeks
  • Compensation: Stipend + potential publication credit
  • Location: Remote-first; timezone overlap with EU or DC ideal
  • To Apply: Send a short note on the one AI policy frontier that excites you most.
