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.

Most company social accounts talking to developers get ignored β€” or worse, screenshotted for the wrong reasons. Developers can smell marketing from three timelines away, which means the only way to do this job well is to actually be one of them: someone who reads the model release notes for fun, has opinions about agent frameworks, and knows the difference between a post that earns a reply and one that earns a mute. We're not looking for a social media manager who can learn tech. We're looking for someone deep in the agentic AI world who happens to be exceptional at making the internet care.

You'll thrive as a Senior Developer Advocate if you:

  • 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 with thoughtful ways you'd implement LiveKit, and potentially tinkering with it 😊

What You'll Do

  • Own LiveKit's voice across X, Reddit, TikTok, LinkedIn, and our blog β€” writing content that developers find credible, useful, and worth sharing
  • Turn product launches into social campaigns that reach and excite developers, from the first teaser to the launch-day thread
  • Show up in developer conversations about agentic AI as a real participant, not a brand account doing drive-by engagement
  • Keep engagement high and measure what works β€” impressions, views, comments β€” and connect it to real developer awareness and adoption
  • Work closely with engineering, product, and DevRel to translate what we're building into content that lands

Who You Are

  • You've built or grown a developer audience on social β€” and you can show the receipts
  • You're an exceptional writer who adapts voice and format across platforms without losing the plot
  • You're deeply interested in agentic AI and follow the space closely enough to have takes
  • You're metrics-minded: you form hypotheses, test them, and let engagement data change your approach

Nice to Have

  • A genuine interest in voice AI β€” or better, you've already built something with a voice agent
  • Your own developer following on X, TikTok, or elsewhere
  • Experience at an AI or developer-tools company where developers were the audience
  • You've deleted a fully drafted post because the joke wasn't quite right β€” and you'd do it again

Our Commitment to You

  • 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
  • Flexible vacation policy

LiveKit is the definitive infrastructure layer for real-time, programmable voice and video, engineered to empower developers to build sophisticated, low-latency communication experiences with unmatched scalability.

By bridging the gap between raw, performance-intensive networking demands and modern, API-first development, the company enables global digital enterprises, AI agents, and collaborative startups to deploy interactive, human-scale communication tools across any platform. Under the hood, their sophisticated operational infrastructureβ€”bolstered by distributed cloud-native delivery, intelligent bandwidth orchestration, and native AI integration frameworksβ€”provides the necessary foundation to support the modern, high-velocity digital landscape. What sets LiveKit apart is its uncompromising dedication to "developer-centric orchestration"; by providing an accessible, audit-ready foundation, the firm empowers commercial organizations to radically accelerate their product-velocity, eliminate systemic communication bottlenecks, and build an unassailable foundation for continuous commercial and institutional success in the modern, AI-transformed global-healthcare and communications landscape.
