Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own a steady cadence of technical content: tutorials, blog posts, demo apps, video walkthroughs, and code examples — all built for developers who want the real story, not the pitch
  • Build and maintain working demos in the LiveKit Examples repo that developers actually use
  • Be an active, authentic presence in developer communities — Discord, Reddit, GitHub, Stack Overflow, X — answering questions, unblocking developers, and genuinely engaging
  • Represent LiveKit at conferences and meetups as needed, and contribute to the team’s virtual event presence (livestreams, webinars, live coding sessions)
  • Work closely with the DevRel and Marketing teams to distribute and amplify content to the right audiences
  • Surface what you're hearing from the community — product feedback, confusion points, common questions — and bring it back to the EPD and Marketing teams in a useful, actionable way

Requirements

  • You can write code and build working demos independently — you don’t need an engineer to build the thing you’re explaining
  • You have a proven track record of producing technical content at scale: tutorials, videos, or livestreams that drove real developer awareness or adoption
  • You communicate clearly and credibly in writing, on camera, and in front of a live audience
  • You’re genuinely curious about how things work — especially in voice AI and real-time infrastructure — and that curiosity comes through in your work
  • You’re self-directed and organized; you thrive when given creative freedom, not a content calendar handed down from above

Preferred

  • Experience with WebRTC, real-time media, or audio/video infrastructure (you know what a STUN server is and you have opinions about it)
  • Voice AI or conversational AI background — you’ve built something with LLMs, TTS, or STT and learned things the hard way
  • Active open source contributor — you have a GitHub profile you’re proud of
  • Experience running live coding sessions, workshops, or hackathons where things don’t go perfectly and you handled it gracefully
  • In those school group projects, you did most of the work :)

Benefits

  • 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
