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.

LiveKit is looking for an experienced Technical Account Manager (TAM) to own the long-term technical relationship with a portfolio of our most strategic accounts as their go-to expert on LiveKit, and our go-to expert on them. You'll set the technical direction, drive customer outcomes, and orchestrate the full LiveKit team behind each account.

This is not a quota-carrying role. It's also one of the first TAM roles at LiveKit, so you'll shape the function and the playbook as we hire more TAMs over the next year.

You'll thrive as a Technical Account Manager if you:

are obsessed with the success of every customer you work with

are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems

can shift between deep technical detail and executive context without dropping either

can write a one-pager an exec will read and a Slack reply that lands well with an engineering audience

can ramp on a customer's stack and get to a useful conversation in days, not weeks

The best way to impress us is by walking us through a customer engagement you're proud of, and by tinkering with LiveKit along the way 😊

Own the technical relationship and long-term outcome for a portfolio of strategic accounts, typically the most sophisticated voice AI and real-time engineering teams in our customer base.

Drive architecture reviews and design consultations to understand each customer's deployment, model their growth trajectory, and steer them toward what will scale.

Deepen product adoption by identifying capability gaps between what customers have built and what the platform supports.

Quarterback the full LiveKit team behind each account, partnering with Developer Success Engineers on day-to-day technical work, Forward Deployed Engineers on deep implementations, and routing hard issues to support and engineering.

Be the customer's voice inside LiveKit, translating field signal into product, pricing, and positioning feedback that actually moves the roadmap.

Lead executive business reviews that connect platform health to business outcomes, surface technical risks ahead, and align both teams on what comes next.

Be on-site with customers for major launches and executive reviews, and lead LiveKit's response in critical escalations to keep the customer's leadership in the loop.

Spot expansion signal early and hand it cleanly to sales. You don't carry the number, but you usually see it first.

Build the playbooks. This is a new function at LiveKit, and you'll define the engagement model for the company's most important accounts.

8+ years in technical, customer-facing roles such as TAM, Solutions Architect, Sales Engineer, or a senior engineering role with heavy customer exposure.

A track record as the trusted technical voice for engineering customers. Engineering teams have leaned on your judgment when the path forward wasn't clear.

Fluent in developer-platform fundamentals like APIs, SDKs, frameworks, and deployment patterns. You don't write code day-to-day, but you can hold your own in technical conversations with engineers.

Familiarity with real-time, distributed, or developer-platform systems. Enough to understand the technical challenges customers face at scale, even if you haven't shipped them yourself.

Comfortable owning a portfolio with a proactive system for tracking customer health, not just reacting to fires.

You communicate with precision in writing and in person, with engineers and executives. You don't soften a recommendation when the customer needs to hear it straight.

Direct experience with WebRTC, SIP, media servers, or voice AI infrastructure (if you've ever debugged that-one-weird-audio-issue, we want to talk to you).

Experience building or operating LLM agent systems, voice AI pipelines, or other AI-native applications.

Time spent at a developer tools or infrastructure company.

Hands-on coding in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Go.

Open source contributions. What you've shipped tells us how you think.

Early-stage startup experience. You've not just run the playbook, you've written the playbook.

An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world

Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers

The role involves triaging bugs, writing sample code, and collaborating with customers to ensure successful platform integration. Key focus areas include AI agents and improving the overall developer experience.

You care about motion at a craft level: timing, easing, rhythm, pacing, transitions, and how it all adds up to feel.

You think in systems, patterns, and reusable behaviors, not just isolated animations.

You move fast, make decisions, and ship without letting quality slip.

You like turning technical ideas into motion that feels simple, sharp, and worth watching.

You can push for a strong creative point of view while working closely with brand, marketing, product, and engineering to bring it to life.

We’re looking for a Motion Designer to help define how LiveKit moves.

This is a founding motion role focused on bringing our brand, product story, and launches to life through thoughtful, high-craft animation. You’ll work across product marketing, launch films, campaign systems, social, events, web marketing surfaces, and brand moments that help developers understand what LiveKit makes possible.

LiveKit sits at the intersection of voice, video, realtime infrastructure, and AI agents. Motion is a huge part of making that feel tangible. The right person will be able to translate abstract technical ideas into clear, memorable, and emotionally resonant motion systems.

You’ll partner closely with brand, web, product design, marketing, and engineering to create motion work that raises the quality bar across the company. This role is primarily brand and marketing focused, but there will be opportunities to flex into web animation, product storytelling, and interface motion when it helps sharpen the experience.

This is a great role for someone who wants to both make excellent work and help build the foundation for a motion practice from the ground up.

Help define LiveKit’s motion language from the ground up: the principles, timing, behaviors, and feel that make our brand recognizably ours.

Lead motion for major launches and campaigns, from announcement videos and hero moments to social cuts and supporting assets.

Bring LiveKit’s website and key marketing surfaces to life with animation that is thoughtful, performant, and in service of the story.

Build reusable motion systems, templates, components, and workflows so high-quality motion can ship faster across the team.

Partner closely with brand, marketing, product, and design engineering to turn complex technical ideas into motion that feels clear, sharp, and worth watching.

You have a standout motion portfolio across brand and marketing work, from fast-turn social edits to polished launch moments.

You’re excellent with After Effects and have a modern motion toolkit, but your foundation is design: type, composition, pacing, hierarchy, and taste.

You can take a loose brief, find the shape of the idea, and drive the work from concept to final export.

You care deeply about the details — timing, easing, transitions, rhythm — and know when something feels right.

You move quickly and ship, but not at the expense of craft.

You’re curious about how AI can speed up, expand, or sharpen the creative process.

You’re comfortable bringing motion to the web, whether through Lottie, Rive, CSS/SVG, prototyping tools, or close collaboration with design engineers.

You like working close to the product and can make technical ideas feel simple, sharp, and exciting.

Founding Motion Designer

There are two versions of the GTM Engineer role being hired for right now. The first is an outbound automation specialist — building Clay sequences, AI prospecting tools, automated cadences. The second is what we're hiring: someone who treats Salesforce and HubSpot as engineering systems, owns the infrastructure and integration layer across the full GTM stack, and builds the agentic workflows that make the revenue engine actually intelligent. If you came here hoping for the first, this isn't it.

Salesforce is our system of record. It holds the bulk of our GTM data and is the source of truth for revenue, pipeline, and customer data. HubSpot is our marketing layer — campaigns, lead gen, and top-of-funnel motion — and what it captures needs to flow cleanly and reliably into Salesforce. Both systems are in place. What we don't yet have is the engineering layer that makes all of it trustworthy — real change management, observable pipelines, a data model built for AI consumption, and agentic workflows that can act on GTM signals without a human in the loop. That's the hire.

You also understand the difference between owning a system and gatekeeping one. Sales will live in Salesforce. Marketing will live in HubSpot. Your job isn't to be the gatekeeper of either — it's to make sure both are governed well enough that others can move in them without breaking things, and observable enough that you know when something does break before they do.

You'll thrive as a GTM Systems Engineer if you:

obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable, and practical for the problem

can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others

are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools

The best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos 😊

Own Salesforce as the engineering system of record for revenue: data model, custom objects and fields, flows and automation, validation rules, field governance, and access control. Salesforce is the source of truth — everything else flows into or out of it.

Own HubSpot as the marketing system for campaigns and lead gen, and own the HubSpot-Salesforce sync — ensuring leads, contacts, and engagement signals flow accurately from Marketing into the revenue pipeline without drift or silent failures.

Build and maintain integrations across the GTM stack (Salesforce, HubSpot, Gong, Clay, Common Room, billing platform, and more) — ensuring data, engagement signals, and activity flow accurately without silent failures.

Own the data flow from GTM systems to the central Data Platform, partnering with the GTM Analytics Engineer to ensure accuracy, lineage, and security at every step.

Build, deploy, and extend agentic workflows: AI agents that consume GTM data, surface actionable signals, and automate operations that used to require a human — as part of LiveKit's Data and Business Systems Platform.

Build and maintain observability for critical GTM systems: dashboards, alerts, and runbooks so you know when something is wrong before Sales or Marketing does.

Implement proper change management across both CRMs: code changes go through review, config changes are documented, rollback paths exist.

Partner with SalesOps and Marketing to ensure both GTM orgs can work effectively in their respective systems — your job is keeping the foundation trustworthy and accessible, not being a ticket queue.

Partner with the Billing Systems Engineer on CPQ-to-Billing workflows — ensuring the closed-won-to-billing handoff is automated and accurate.

Deep, hands-on Salesforce expertise — you understand the data model, have built complex flows and automation, and you think about it as an engineering system, not an admin tool. This is the primary bar.

Solid HubSpot experience in a marketing context — you've owned or operated it for campaigns and lead gen, and you've managed the HubSpot-Salesforce sync, including what breaks and why.

Proven integration engineering experience — you've built and owned integrations using APIs, webhooks, and event streams, and you've handled what happens when they break silently.

Code-first mindset — scripting, APIs, and CLI over UI when it's the right call. You have concrete examples of using code to solve GTM operational problems and you can speak to the judgment behind when you reached for it.

Agentic workflow experience, in code — you've built or extended AI agent workflows that act on GTM data. Not "we used AI tools" but actually designed and deployed agents in code: prompts, tool calls, orchestration logic, and the guardrails that make them safe to run autonomously.

Strong change management practices — you've managed deployments in live systems where a mistake breaks active deals or campaigns.

Comfortable partnering with Sales and Marketing stakeholders directly — fluent in both worlds, able to translate their needs into system requirements without becoming a bottleneck.

Salesforce CPQ: approvals, order forms, discounting rules, and the closed-won-to-billing path.

SQL and data modeling fluency; familiarity with a warehouse-centric stack (BigQuery, Snowflake, dbt, reverse ETL).

Experience with billing platforms (Stripe, Zuora, Maxio) and the handoffs between GTM systems and billing.

In those school group projects, you did most of the work (:sigh:).
