About the role

This isn't one of those roles where "security" means running scans or writing policies that gather dust.
We're looking for a real engineer - someone who thinks like a builder and a breaker.
Someone who gets deep into the stack, whether it's an API endpoint, a container image, or a browser sandbox.

Own security across the stack - applications, services, infrastructure, and developer workflows
Lead secure code reviews, architecture discussions, and threat modeling sessions
Build tooling and automations that help prevent security issues before they reach production
Partner closely with engineers across teams to design secure-by-default APIs, workflows, and deployments
Investigate vulnerabilities, respond to security incidents, and manage disclosure processes when needed
LiveKit is building the infrastructure layer for the agentic era of computing.

6+ years of experience as a software engineer with a strong interest in security engineering

Experience with security reviews of WebRTC, media pipelines, or real-time systems
Contributions to open-source security tooling or research
Hands-on experience with static and dynamic analysis tools, fuzzing, or sandboxing
Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers
