About the role

About LiveKit

LiveKit 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.

About This Role

Our customers trust us with audio, video and data belonging to their own end users, so a security failure on our side puts their data and their business at risk. We are hiring a Security Engineer to build and run our vulnerability management and security operations program. Vulnerability management is a core capability for keeping our security posture strong as the platform and the company grow: knowing what we run, finding what is exposed, and getting the right fixes shipped quickly. It also underpins our customer commitments and the compliance programs we are building. Our program is early, and you will shape it. You will join a small Trust team that covers security, IT and compliance, and you will own this program end to end from your first week.

You'll thrive at LiveKit if you

think like both a builder and a breaker, and understand security from first principles

take an automation-first and pragmatic approach to risk mitigation

translate security concerns into engineering action

can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others

are a fast learner and thrive in ambiguity

What You’ll Do

Select, deploy and operationalize scanning tooling across our production assets.

Run vulnerability management end to end: triage, severity in our environment, owner assignment, remediation SLAs and reporting.

Build engineering-first triage and remediation workflows that fit how our engineering teams already work, and automate the routing and follow-up.

Build a remediation dashboard that engineering and leadership read and act on.

Automate collection of the vulnerability management evidence our compliance programs depend on, in partnership with our Compliance team.

Build automation, including agentic tooling, that removes manual security operations work and keeps pace with engineering growth.

Who You Are

5+ years in security engineering, security operations or software engineering, with a significant share of that focused on security.

Hands-on experience building or running a vulnerability management program or software security tooling (SCA, container, cloud or host scanning).

An engineering-first approach to triage and remediation: you get findings fixed by making the fix easy to ship.

The judgment to set a finding's real severity in our environment, using CVSS as one input.

Strong scripting and automation skills in a language such as Go or Python, and comfort reading infrastructure as code such as Terraform.

A pragmatic approach to risk: you can explain why a finding matters to the business and how fast it needs to be fixed.
