LiveKit is looking for an experienced Technical Account Manager (TAM) to own the long-term technical relationship with a portfolio of our most strategic accounts as their go-to expert on LiveKit, and our go-to expert on them. You'll set the technical direction, drive customer outcomes, and orchestrate the full LiveKit team behind each account.
This is not a quota-carrying role. It's also one of the first TAM roles at LiveKit, so you'll shape the function and the playbook as we hire more TAMs over the next year.
You'll thrive as a Technical Account Manager if you:
are obsessed with the success of every customer you work with
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
can shift between deep technical detail and executive context without dropping either
can write a one-pager an exec will read and a Slack reply that lands well with an engineering audience
can ramp on a customer's stack and get to a useful conversation in days, not weeks
The best way to impress us is by walking us through a customer engagement you're proud of, and by tinkering with LiveKit along the way π
Own the technical relationship and long-term outcome for a portfolio of strategic accounts, typically the most sophisticated voice AI and real-time engineering teams in our customer base.
Drive architecture reviews and design consultations to understand each customer's deployment, model their growth trajectory, and steer them toward what will scale.
Deepen product adoption by identifying capability gaps between what customers have built and what the platform supports.
Quarterback the full LiveKit team behind each account, partnering with Developer Success Engineers on day-to-day technical work, Forward Deployed Engineers on deep implementations, and routing hard issues to support and engineering.
Be the customer's voice inside LiveKit, translating field signal into product, pricing, and positioning feedback that actually moves the roadmap.
Lead executive business reviews that connect platform health to business outcomes, surface technical risks ahead, and align both teams on what comes next.
Be on-site with customers for major launches and executive reviews, and lead LiveKit's response in critical escalations to keep the customer's leadership in the loop.
Spot expansion signal early and hand it cleanly to sales. You don't carry the number, but you usually see it first.
Build the playbooks. This is a new function at LiveKit, and you'll define the engagement model for the company's most important accounts.
8+ years in technical, customer-facing roles such as TAM, Solutions Architect, Sales Engineer, or a senior engineering role with heavy customer exposure.
A track record as the trusted technical voice for engineering customers. Engineering teams have leaned on your judgment when the path forward wasn't clear.
Fluent in developer-platform fundamentals like APIs, SDKs, frameworks, and deployment patterns. You don't write code day-to-day, but you can hold your own in technical conversations with engineers.
Familiarity with real-time, distributed, or developer-platform systems. Enough to understand the technical challenges customers face at scale, even if you haven't shipped them yourself.
Comfortable owning a portfolio with a proactive system for tracking customer health, not just reacting to fires.
You communicate with precision in writing and in person, with engineers and executives. You don't soften a recommendation when the customer needs to hear it straight.
Direct experience with WebRTC, SIP, media servers, or voice AI infrastructure (if you've ever debugged that-one-weird-audio-issue, we want to talk to you).
Experience building or operating LLM agent systems, voice AI pipelines, or other AI-native applications.
Time spent at a developer tools or infrastructure company.
Hands-on coding in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Go.
Open source contributions. What you've shipped tells us how you think.

Developer-first companies are allergic to marketing β which means our web work has to be so good it doesn't feel like marketing. That's the job. Most \"design engineer\" roles are really front-end roles with a nicer title: implement the mockup, close the ticket. This one isn't.

You'll thrive as a Design Engineer if you:
obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast

Partner daily with brand designers, marketers, and the design engineering team to turn ambitious ideas into shipped web
An exceptional front-end engineer with a portfolio of production web work that speaks for itself

Fluent in translating brand and design intent into reusable systems and components
Fast and self-directed β you ship polished work without waiting for perfect specs

This isn't one of those situations where we tack \"engineer\" onto the back of every role at LiveKit. No. We're actually looking for an engineer*. A rare type of engineer that cares about talking to and advocating for customers, helping unblock them by fixing bugs or writing up sample code, and providing customers with guidance, pointers and support.
We say rare because in our experience, most engineers aspire to architect large-scale systems or tackle deeply technical problems. Said differently, most engineers want to have influence over the technology they work on or with. There's nothing wrong with that β we love hardcore engineers, and there are many at LiveKit. But this time, we're looking for a new teammate that wants to have influence over our product and business.
If you'd be energized by seeing a developer or team flip a LiveKit integration from staging to production β secretly satisfied in knowing you helped make it possible β you are perfect for this.
are an engineer at heart, and don't mind reading more code than you write
are a natural teacher who finds joy in helping others learn and succeed
can break down complex technical concepts in a way that's easily understood by others
enjoy learning new programming languages quickly and prototyping
care deeply about the developer experience and the success of the people building on our platform
have excellent spoken and written English
Support and work directly with developers, teams, and companies building with LiveKit, both commercially and in the community
Triage, file, and fix bugs, respond to support tickets, write sample and production-quality code, and update documentation and technical guides in service of customers
Collaborate and support community efforts, specifically around technical issues
Regularly meet with and follow up with LiveKit customers to ensure their continued success on the platform

","descriptionPlain":"ABOUT LIVEKIT\n\nLiveKit is building the infrastructure layer for the agentic era of computing. Our platform gives developers everything they need to build, test, deploy, scale, and observe AI agents in production. Founded in 2021, LiveKit powers voice and agentic AI applications for OpenAI, Salesforce, Spotify, Meta, and tens of thousands of other developers, collectively facilitating billions of calls each year.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THIS ROLE\n\nThis isn't one of those situations where we tack \"engineer\" onto the back of every role at LiveKit. No. We're actually looking for an engineer*. A rare type of engineer that cares about talking to and advocating for customers, helping unblock them by fixing bugs or writing up sample code, and providing customers with guidance, pointers and support.\n\nWe say rare because in our experience, most engineers aspire to architect large-scale systems or tackle deeply technical problems. Said differently, most engineers want to have influence over the technology they work on or with. There's nothing wrong with that β we love hardcore engineers, and there are many at LiveKit. But this time, we're looking for a new teammate that wants to have influence over our product and business.\n\nIf you'd be energized by seeing a developer or team flip a LiveKit integration from staging to production β secretly satisfied in knowing you helped make it possible β you are perfect for this.\n\n\n\n\nYOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU:\n\n - are an engineer at heart, and don't mind reading more code than you write\n\n - are a natural teacher who finds joy in helping others learn and succeed\n\n - can break down complex technical concepts in a way that's easily understood by others\n\n - enjoy learning new programming languages quickly and prototyping\n\n - care deeply about the developer experience and the success of the people building on our platform\n\n - have excellent spoken and written English\n \n \n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Support and work directly with developers, teams, and companies building with LiveKit, both commercially and in the community\n\n - Triage, file, and fix bugs, respond to support tickets, write sample and production-quality code, and update documentation and technical guides in service of customers\n\n - Collaborate and support community efforts, specifically around technical issues\n\n - Regularly meet with and follow up with LiveKit customers to ensure their continued success on the platform\n\n - Partner closely with Sales, BD, and Partnerships teams on strategy and support them in customer conversations\n \n \n\n\nWHO YOU ARE\n\n - A practicing engineer with demonstrated ability to build, ship, and debug production software\n\n - Comfortable working across an unfamiliar codebase to diagnose and resolve customer issues\n\n - A clear written and verbal communicator who can adapt your message to technical and non-technical audiences\n\n - Curious, fast-learning, and energized by ambiguity\n\n - Customer-focused β you feel the difference between solving a ticket and solving the underlying problem\n \n \n\n\nNICE TO HAVE\n\n - You've literally done this role before\n\n - Experience working with a community of developers\n\n - Contributions to open source\n\n - You've built something with LiveKit\n\n - You're multilingual β LiveKit has users around the world\n \n \n\n\nOUR COMMITMENT TO YOU\n\n - An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world\n\n - Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers\n\n - Competitive salary and equity package\n\n - Health, dental, and vision benefits\n\n - Flexible vacation policy\n\n\n\nLiveKit is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of any characteristic protected by applicable law.

We're looking for a Senior Engineer to work across some of the most technically demanding parts of LiveKit's platform β core services, telephony, and observability. At LiveKit, the infrastructure is the product β you're not building the layer underneath, you are the layer.
You'll work on problems where latency, availability, and operational simplicity are critical, and where the right answer often requires careful tradeoffs and outside-the-box thinking. While distributed systems experience is valuable, we care just as much about strong programming fundamentals, sound judgment, and the ability to learn fast. The team is small. Your decisions ship directly into production.
You'll thrive as a Distributed Systems Engineer if you:
obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast

You have experience designing and delivering distributed systems in production
You take ownership end-to-end - prototype, test, ship, monitor, and iterate
You're comfortable with consensus, coordination, and the realities of distributed failure modes
You think in terms of data flow, state, performance, and correctness, and you can reduce complex systems into understandable components
You value clear communication, practical engineering, and building systems that others enjoy working with
Go fluency β if you haven't written Go yet, you've been meaning to
Hands-on experience with pub/sub, RPC, or coordination systems (NATS, etcd, Raft, Paxos)
Exposure to real-time or low-latency infrastructure β you know what microseconds feel like
You've shipped observability tooling you'd actually want to use (tracing, metrics, at-scale logging)

We're hiring Product Engineers to build the surfaces developers use to ship agentic applications on LiveKit. Most of this work lives on the web and in our CLI: the dashboards, tooling, observability, and debug surfaces that turn LiveKit from a set of APIs into a platform people love to build on.
This is a core engineering role. You'll write a lot of production code in TypeScript and Go, work end to end across the stack, and ship features that real developers depend on. We expect strong technical chops and a high bar for craft.
What sets a Product Engineer apart at LiveKit is product instinct. You think about the shape of the experience, not just the correctness of the code.

6+ years of engineering experience, with meaningful time spent shipping product end-to-end
Strong coding skills in TypeScript, with fluency in modern web frameworks. Comfort with Go is a plus.
A track record of building user-facing software that developers or technical users actually adopted
Strong product sense: you weigh user experience, trade-offs, and value alongside technical implementation
Comfort with ambiguity. You can take a vague problem, frame it, and start shipping.

We're looking for an experienced PM to lead a growth squad at LiveKit. Bottoms-up growth has always been in our DNA: build a product developers love, keep it open-source, include a generous free tier, and let word of mouth do the work. It has taken us a long way: many of our largest customer today started as a single developer building something new. As our business scales, and our GTM team grows for Enterprise sales, we now need a full-time squad focused on Product-Led Growth (PLG).
This squad will grow and maintain a large, diverse, healthy population of developers actively building on LiveKit. Some will break out into serious scale and become our future largest customers. We cannot pick which ones in advance, so the job is not to run a conventional acquisition funnel. It is to cultivate the population and make sure we notice and support what it produces. In practice that means more developers arriving, more of them getting to something real, more of them adopting the full platform, and the ones who take off having us alongside them the whole way.
Our PM team is small and high-leverage, with each PM coming in to establish the foundations in a new area of the business. You'd run the growth squad (product, design, engineering, marketing, and analytics), work alongside our developer support engineers on the accounts that are scaling, and partner with marketing on everything upstream of signup.
This role can be based remotely or in our SF HQ, where you'll be part of a collaborative in-office culture!
are obsessed with making the best product for our customers
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough problems
work hard and can build and ship fast
are focused on polish, detail, and quality
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new tips, tricks, and skills
The best way to impress us is by trying LiveKit's product, understanding the space, and bringing smart thoughts and opinions to the table.
Own Product-Led Growth end to end. From how a developer first hears about us through onboarding, adoption, and growth into a production workload. Where the path crosses into marketing or into another product team, you're the person accountable for the whole thing working rather than for a slice of it.
Grow the population. More developers arriving, from more places, building more kinds of things. Own the surfaces that decide whether someone who lands on LiveKit ends up building on it, including how we show up to the AI tools developers now use to choose their stack.
Get developers to a real workload, not just a first run. Own onboarding and activation as product surfaces. The distance between \"signed up\" and \"actually built something\" is still large, and closing this gap is one of our biggest growth levers.
Stay close to the builders who are taking off. Keep tabs on the accounts finding traction, identify them early, understand what they're building, and make sure we're helping them scale rather than finding out after the fact.
Drive platform depth. Developers who adopt more of LiveKit build more with us and stay longer. Work with the product teams to make attaching products like agent hosting, LiveKit Inference, and Agent Observability the natural path early on, rather than a later upsell.
Be the voice of the self-serve developer. Tens of thousands of people a month touch our product without ever talking to anyone here. Bring what they experience back into the roadmap, from the docs through to the product itself.
Make growth measurable. Own the operating metrics for platform health and the cadence that reviews them, so we can see how the population is doing in weeks rather than quarters. Youβll work closely with our data team to design and operate this system.
8+ years in product management, at a senior or staff level, ideally owning growth, activation, or retention for a developer-facing or usage-based product.
A real product-led growth background. You've owned a funnel where the product does the selling: acquisition through onboarding, adoption, and expansion, with experimentation and instrumentation to match.
You've moved a usage number, not just a signup number. Our growth comes overwhelmingly from developers building more on us over time. Acquisition matters, but depth and durability are where this job is won.
Technical enough to earn a developer's trust. You know your way around a CLI and can have serious technical discussion with customers and engineers. You don't need to write production code, but our customers are developers and you'll be one of the people they talk to.
Quantitative by instinct. You're comfortable in the data yourself, you know the difference between temporary noise and a real trend, and you're honest about what a number can and cannot prove.
Cross-functional influence. LiveKit's engineering teams operate with high autonomy, and this role reaches across product, marketing, support, and sales. You influence through clarity, trust, and good judgment, not process or hierarchy.
Communication as a superpower. You write clearly, present well, and can move between a board-level strategy conversation and a detailed technical discussion with an engineering lead.
Comfort with ambiguity. We're a small product team at a fast-growing company. You'll figure out what matters, prioritize ruthlessly, and move quickly without perfect information.

","descriptionPlain":"ABOUT LIVEKIT \n\nLiveKit is building the infrastructure layer for the voice-driven era of computing. Our platform gives developers everything they need to build, test, deploy, scale, and observe agents in production. Founded in 2021, LiveKit powers voice AI applications for OpenAI, xAI, Salesforce, Coursera, Spotify, and thousands of others, collectively facilitating billions of calls each year.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THIS ROLE\n\nWe're looking for an experienced PM to lead a growth squad at LiveKit. Bottoms-up growth has always been in our DNA: build a product developers love, keep it open-source, include a generous free tier, and let word of mouth do the work. It has taken us a long way: many of our largest customer today started as a single developer building something new. As our business scales, and our GTM team grows for Enterprise sales, we now need a full-time squad focused on Product-Led Growth (PLG).\n\nThis squad will grow and maintain a large, diverse, healthy population of developers actively building on LiveKit. Some will break out into serious scale and become our future largest customers. We cannot pick which ones in advance, so the job is not to run a conventional acquisition funnel. It is to cultivate the population and make sure we notice and support what it produces. In practice that means more developers arriving, more of them getting to something real, more of them adopting the full platform, and the ones who take off having us alongside them the whole way.\n\nOur PM team is small and high-leverage, with each PM coming in to establish the foundations in a new area of the business. You'd run the growth squad (product, design, engineering, marketing, and analytics), work alongside our developer support engineers on the accounts that are scaling, and partner with marketing on everything upstream of signup.\n\nThis role can be based remotely or in our SF HQ, where you'll be part of a collaborative in-office culture!\n\n\n\n\nYOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU:\n\n - are obsessed with making the best product for our customers\n\n - are known as the go-to person for tackling tough problems\n\n - work hard and can build and ship fast\n\n - are focused on polish, detail, and quality\n\n - are a fast learner, frequently picking up new tips, tricks, and skills\n\nThe best way to impress us is by trying LiveKit's product, understanding the space, and bringing smart thoughts and opinions to the table.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Own Product-Led Growth end to end. From how a developer first hears about us through onboarding, adoption, and growth into a production workload. Where the path crosses into marketing or into another product team, you're the person accountable for the whole thing working rather than for a slice of it.\n\n - Grow the population. More developers arriving, from more places, building more kinds of things. Own the surfaces that decide whether someone who lands on LiveKit ends up building on it, including how we show up to the AI tools developers now use to choose their stack.\n\n - Get developers to a real workload, not just a first run. Own onboarding and activation as product surfaces. The distance between \"signed up\" and \"actually built something\" is still large, and closing this gap is one of our biggest growth levers.\n\n - Stay close to the builders who are taking off. Keep tabs on the accounts finding traction, identify them early, understand what they're building, and make sure we're helping them scale rather than finding out after the fact.\n\n - Drive platform depth. Developers who adopt more of LiveKit build more with us and stay longer.

are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast

are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools
The best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos π
Own Salesforce as the engineering system of record for revenue: data model, custom objects and fields, flows and automation, validation rules, field governance, and access control. Salesforce is the source of truth β everything else flows into or out of it.
Own HubSpot as the marketing system for campaigns and lead gen, and own the HubSpot-Salesforce sync β ensuring leads, contacts, and engagement signals flow accurately from Marketing into the revenue pipeline without drift or silent failures.
Build and maintain integrations across the GTM stack (Salesforce, HubSpot, Gong, Clay, Common Room, billing platform, and more) β ensuring data, engagement signals, and activity flow accurately without silent failures.
Own the data flow from GTM systems to the central Data Platform, partnering with the GTM Analytics Engineer to ensure accuracy, lineage, and security at every step.
Build, deploy, and extend agentic workflows: AI agents that consume GTM data, surface actionable signals, and automate operations that used to require a human β as part of LiveKit's Data and Business Systems Platform.
Build and maintain observability for critical GTM systems: dashboards, alerts, and runbooks so you know when something is wrong before Sales or Marketing does.
Implement proper change management across both CRMs: code changes go through review, config changes are documented, rollback paths exist.
Partner with SalesOps and Marketing to ensure both GTM orgs can work effectively in their respective systems β your job is keeping the foundation trustworthy and accessible, not being a ticket queue.
Partner with the Billing Systems Engineer on CPQ-to-Billing workflows β ensuring the closed-won-to-billing handoff is automated and accurate.
Deep, hands-on Salesforce expertise β you understand the data model, have built complex flows and automation, and you think about it as an engineering system, not an admin tool. This is the primary bar.
Solid HubSpot experience in a marketing context β you've owned or operated it for campaigns and lead gen, and you've managed the HubSpot-Salesforce sync, including what breaks and why.
Proven integration engineering experience β you've built and owned integrations using APIs, webhooks, and event streams, and you've handled what happens when they break silently.
Code-first mindset β scripting, APIs, and CLI over UI when it's the right call. You have concrete examples of using code to solve GTM operational problems and you can speak to the judgment behind when you reached for it.
Agentic workflow experience, in code β you've built or extended AI agent workflows that act on GTM data. Not \"we used AI tools\" but actually designed and deployed agents in code: prompts, tool calls, orchestration logic, and the guardrails that make them safe to run autonomously.
Strong change management practices β you've managed deployments in live systems where a mistake breaks active deals or campaigns.
Comfortable partnering with Sales and Marketing stakeholders directly β fluent in both worlds, able to translate their needs into system requirements without becoming a bottleneck.
Salesforce CPQ: approvals, order forms, discounting rules, and the closed-won-to-billing path.
SQL and data modeling fluency; familiarity with a warehouse-centric stack (BigQuery, Snowflake, dbt, reverse ETL).
Experience with billing platforms (Stripe, Zuora, Maxio) and the handoffs between GTM systems and billing.

Our PM team is small and high-leverage, with each PM coming in to establish the foundations in a new area of the business.

The best way to impress us is by trying LiveKit's product, understanding the space, and bringing smart thoughts and opinions to the table.
Own the hosting roadmap. Set a clear vision and a sequenced plan for the product, and decide what gets built and when, in partnership with engineering.
Ship a runtime people rely on. Turn deploys, scaling, and reliability into an experience customers trust with their production workloads, and keep raising the bar.
Make scale automatic. Drive the work on cold starts, autoscaling, regional coverage, and performance so customers can run at massive volume without thinking about it.
Get deep with customers and data. Understand how teams actually deploy and operate agents in production, and let that shape priorities.
Grow it into a business. Drive adoption and revenue so Agent Hosting reflects the real value it delivers as our production runtime.
Expand what the runtime is. Help take Hosting beyond voice agents to all kinds of agents.
8+ years in product management, at a senior or staff level, ideally having owned a developer-facing infrastructure or platform product.
Technical depth. You can reason about distributed systems, runtimes, scaling, and latency, and earn the trust of strong engineers. You don't need to write code, but you need to understand systems well enough to make good tradeoffs.
Infrastructure product sense. You've owned a product where reliability and performance at scale were the core of the job, and you have judgment about the tradeoffs behind deploy speed, autoscaling, and cost.
Cross-functional influence. LiveKit's engineering teams operate with high autonomy. You influence through clarity, trust, and good judgment, not process or hierarchy.
Communication as a superpower. You write clearly, present well, and can move between a board-level strategy conversation and a detailed technical discussion with an engineering lead.

You'll work on problems where latency, availability, and operational simplicity are critical, and where the right answer often requires careful tradeoffs and outside-the-box thinking. While distributed systems experience is valuable, we care just as much about strong programming fundamentals, sound judgment, and the ability to learn fast. The team is small. Your decisions ship directly into production.
You'll thrive as a Distributed Systems Engineer if you:
obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast
can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools
The best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos π
Design and evolve the core control, data, and observability systems that power LiveKit Cloud
Implement resilient, region-spanning architectures that degrade gracefully under partial failure
Build libraries, protocols, and tooling that raise reliability and developer velocity across the org
Diagnose and harden critical paths using metrics, tracing, testing, and real-world traffic insights
Shape new platform capabilities across identity, scheduling, observability, and distributed state management

","descriptionPlain":"ABOUT LIVEKIT\n\nLiveKit is revolutionizing the AI landscape by providing the essential network infrastructure that powers multimodal AI interfaces, enabling seamless audio and visual interactions. Founded in 2021, LiveKit has rapidly grown to support over 3 Billion calls annually, 100,000+ developers globally, and industry giants like OpenAI, Character AI, Spotify, and Meta.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THIS ROLE\n\nWe're looking for a Staff Engineer to work across some of the most technically demanding parts of LiveKit's platform β core services, telephony, and observability. At LiveKit, the infrastructure is the product β you're not building the layer underneath, you are the layer.\n\nYou'll work on problems where latency, availability, and operational simplicity are critical, and where the right answer often requires careful tradeoffs and outside-the-box thinking. While distributed systems experience is valuable, we care just as much about strong programming fundamentals, sound judgment, and the ability to learn fast. The team is small. Your decisions ship directly into production.\n\n\n\nYou'll thrive as a Distributed Systems Engineer if you:\n\n - obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem\n\n - are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems\n\n - work hard and can build and ship fast\n\n - can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others\n\n - are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools\n\nThe best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos π\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Design and evolve the core control, data, and observability systems that power LiveKit Cloud\n\n - Implement resilient, region-spanning architectures that degrade gracefully under partial failure\n\n - Build libraries, protocols, and tooling that raise reliability and developer velocity across the org\n\n - Diagnose and harden critical paths using metrics, tracing, testing, and real-world traffic insights\n\n - Shape new platform capabilities across identity, scheduling, observability, and distributed state management\n\n - Technologies include: Go, psrpc, gRPC, Raft, NATS, Kubernetes, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, ClickHouse\n\n\n\n\nWHO YOU ARE\n\n - You have experience designing and delivering distributed systems in production\n\n - You take ownership end-to-end - prototype, test, ship, monitor, and iterate\n\n - You're comfortable with consensus, coordination, and the realities of distributed failure modes\n\n - You think in terms of data flow, state, performance, and correctness, and you can reduce complex systems into understandable components\n\n - You value clear communication, practical engineering, and building systems that others enjoy working with\n\n\n\n\nNICE TO HAVE\n\n - Go fluency β if you haven't written Go yet, you've been meaning to\n\n - Hands-on experience with pub/sub, RPC, or coordination systems (NATS, etcd, Raft, Paxos)\n\n - Exposure to real-time or low-latency infrastructure β you know what microseconds feel like\n\n - You've shipped observability tooling you'd actually want to use (tracing, metrics, at-scale logging)\n\n - In those school group projects, you did most of the work (:sigh:)\n\n\n\n\nWE OFFER\n\n - The opportunity to shape the brand of a fast-growing developer platform\n\n - Collaboration with a small, senior team that deeply values craft and creativity\n\n - Competitive salary and equity package\n\n - Health, dental, and vision benefits\n\n - Flexible vacation policy\n\n\n\nLiveKit is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of any characteristic protected by applicable law.

This is an engineering role with a support component, not the other way around.

You'll work in an Okta, Workspace ONE, Google Workspace, and Slack stack, partnered closely with Security, Engineering, People, and Finance. Internal systems are in audit scope for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI, so the controls you build have to hold up under an auditor's review, not just function day to day.
You'll thrive as an IT Engineer if you:
obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast
can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools
As an IT Engineer at LiveKit, you will:
Own identity and access engineering in Okta β group strategy, app assignments, SSO configuration, lifecycle automation, and access request patterns that are secure without being miserable to use
Run endpoint engineering across a macOS-first fleet in Workspace ONE β provisioning, configuration baselines, patching, encryption posture, inventory hygiene, and compliance reporting
Administer Google Workspace and Slack at scale: user lifecycle, groups, shared drives, permissions, roles, and the governance patterns that keep them from drifting
Bring the SaaS estate under real governance β who owns each tool, who has access, what it costs, and what happens to all three when someone changes teams or leaves
Build the automation that keeps IT load from scaling with headcount β onboarding, deprovisioning, access reporting, device compliance, and whatever else you catch yourself doing twice
Translate security, compliance, and engineering requirements into IT controls that generate their own audit evidence instead of a quarterly scramble
Serve as the technical escalation point for complex issues across identity, access, endpoints, and internal infrastructure β and then engineer the class of problem out of existence
4+ years in IT engineering, IT operations, systems administration, endpoint engineering, or identity engineering β ideally somewhere fast-moving and remote-first
You've administered Okta or a comparable identity provider as the owner: SSO, groups, app assignments, lifecycle workflows, real access management decisions
Hands-on with modern MDM β Workspace ONE or equivalent β including provisioning, configuration enforcement, patching, encryption, and inventory
Strong Google Workspace administration and genuine macOS endpoint depth
You've built or meaningfully improved operational workflows, automation, reporting, or internal controls β not just operated someone else's
An excellent writer. You can explain a technical decision clearly, document a system so the next person doesn't have to reverse-engineer it, and keep stakeholders informed without burying them
Strong ownership and judgment. You can prioritize under ambiguity and you build things that reduce future work rather than adding to it
You want to stay hands-on. This is an individual contributor role, and the work is building and operating systems, not managing people who do
Experience supporting security and compliance work β SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI, access reviews, audit evidence, or control implementation
Fluency with device security posture: EDR, disk encryption, patch compliance, vulnerability management, access hygiene
Scripting and automation with Bash, Python, Google Apps Script, Okta Workflows, or raw APIs

You'll shape the direction and roadmap for Telephony alongside the engineering leaders who build it, across both sides of the product. On one side is SIP trunking, where enterprises bring the carriers and phone systems they already have and everything has to interoperate, stay up, and sound good. On the other is LiveKit Phone Numbers, our native offering, where we own the carrier relationships and hand a developer a working number in a couple of clicks. Going native lets us control the whole path a call takes, which means fewer hops, better audio, and quality we can actually tune. We intend to offer the fastest and best sounding connection an agent can get, anywhere in the world, and you'll decide how quickly we get there and how far the footprint reaches.
This role can be based remotely or in our SF HQ, where you'll be part of a collaborative in-office culture!
are obsessed with making the best product for our customers
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough problems
work hard and can build and ship fast
are focused on polish, detail, and quality
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new tips, tricks, and skills
The best way to impress us is by trying LiveKit's product, understanding the space, and bringing smart thoughts and opinions to the table.
Own the telephony roadmap. Build a clear point of view on where the product is going, and decide what gets built and when, in partnership with engineering.
Meet enterprises where they are. SIP has as many interpretations as there are vendors. Decide what compatibility we take on, and when, so connecting an existing carrier, PBX, or contact center platform is straightforward instead of a project.
Take native telephony global. Extend LiveKit Phone Numbers well beyond its US starting point, with the country coverage and regulatory footing to make buying a number from us the obvious choice.
Get deep with customers and data. Understand how teams actually run phone-based agents in production, from the first trunk they configure to the calls that go wrong, and let that shape priorities.
Own the economics. Telephony is already a meaningful business with real carrier costs behind it. Own pricing, packaging, and margin as volume grows and our footprint expands.
8+ years in product management, at a senior or staff level, with substantial experience managing a developer-facing products in particular.
Technical depth. You can reason about protocols, media paths, latency, call quality, and failure modes, and earn the trust of strong engineers. You don't need to write code, but you need to understand systems well enough to make good tradeoffs.
Reliability instincts. You've owned a product where uptime and quality were the core of the job, and you're comfortable in a domain where failure is immediate and obvious to a person on the other end of a live call.
Cross-functional influence. You influence through clarity, trust, and good judgment, not process or hierarchy.
Customer obsessed. You form deep connection with customer needs, and translate that into the prioritized roadmap with the engineering team. You ensure everything we ship is polished, focused, and solves real problems for customers.
Communication as a superpower. You write clearly, present well, and can move between a board-level strategy conversation and a detailed technical discussion with an engineering lead.
Comfort with ambiguity. We're a small product team at a fast-growing company. You'll figure out what matters, prioritize ruthlessly, and move quickly without perfect information.
Built a telephony, CPaaS, SIP, or voice communications product that customers ran production call volume on

Our platform gives developers everything they need to build, test, deploy, scale, and observe agents in production. Founded in 2021, LiveKit powers voice AI applications for OpenAI, xAI, Salesforce, Coursera, Spotify, and thousands of others, collectively facilitating billions of calls each year.
LiveKit is looking for a Startup Program Lead to own LiveKit Startups, the program that gives early-stage teams building voice AI the credits and the stack they need to get to a working product, through a single application.
Building a voice agent means assembling a lot of moving parts, and most of that assembly happens in the weeks when a team has the least budget and the least leverage with any vendor. The program exists to take that off a founder's plate at exactly the point it's most in the way.
You own the program end to end: what's in the offer, how founders find it, the partnerships that make it possible, and what happens to a team once they're in.
Have worked directly with early stage founders and know the difference between what helps them be successful.
Do your best work with a team around you, and just as good work when it's only you.
Are strategic and big-picture, and just as capable of handling the tactical details yourself.
Are highly organized, communicate clearly, and have worked cross-functionally across teams and outside your own company.
Own the LiveKit Startups Program end-to-end: what's in the offer, how founders find it, how quickly they hear back, and what their experience is once they're in.
Open new front doors. Accelerators and funds are how most founders will first hear about this: YC, Founders Inc, Boost VC, HF0, South Park Commons, a16z and beyond. Each one is a relationship you own.
Bring more of the stack into the program. We work with speech and voice model providers so that a founder gets more than LiveKit out of a single application. Widening that set means building and negotiating those partnerships yourself.
Run the operations that make the program trustworthy: application review and approval, provisioning, partner reporting, and a monthly cycle that has to close accurately every time.
Own the program's health: how many teams join, how many get to a working agent in their first week, and whether the experience is good enough that they stay.
Be the founders' voice inside LiveKit. Share feedback with product, docs, and pricing.
5+ years in startup programs, ecosystem or platform partnerships, developer growth, or GTM at a developer infrastructure company. Founder experience counts.
You've built a program rather than inherited one. You've written the criteria, the terms, the landing page, and the follow-up email.
Comfortable on the commercial side. You can structure a partner agreement and manage external relationships.
Technically credible with developers. You don't need to write production code, but you should be able to talk architecture with a founder without an engineer in the room.
Operationally rigorous. This program runs on a repeating monthly cycle, and you're the reason it doesn't slip.
Time inside an accelerator or on a VC platform team.
You've built or shipped something with voice AI, LLM agents, or real-time infrastructure.
Experience with usage-based pricing or credit systems.
An existing network in the early-stage AI ecosystem. Founders, scouts, platform leads.
An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world
Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers
Competitive salary and equity package
Health, dental, and vision benefits
