About LiveKit

An open source framework and developer platform for building, testing, deploying, scaling, and observing agents in production. Backed by Index and Redpoint.

About the 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. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 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
