Leading startup in Silicon Valley is looking for a LiveKit specialist. Open to:
• Full-time role (remote) or
Short consulting engagement to answer a few targeted questions
What you’ll do
• Stand up and tune a LiveKit Agents workflow (STT → LLM → TTS) with robust interruption/barge-in handling.
• Implement control via data channels/RPC (e.g., start/stop, next/prev, UI sync).
• Add event hooks/telemetry for generation start/finish and delivery status.
• Advise on architecture, performance, and cost—then ship a minimal, reliable demo.
Must-have
• Strong experience with LiveKit (Client SDK JS/TS, Agents in Python/Node, WebRTC fundamentals).
• Real-time agent design (tool calls, context/state, error and retry strategy).
• Practical integration of STT/LLM/TTS providers.
• Solid React/TypeScript for custom controls and basic UI.
Nice to have
• Observability/tracing for real-time systems.
• Cloud deployment (Docker, CI/CD) and auth best practices.
• Low-latency audio techniques (VAD, queueing, buffering).
How to apply
DM with:
• Links to relevant LiveKit or real-time projects (GitHub, demos)
• 2–3 bullets on the toughest LiveKit/Agents problems you’ve solved
• Availability (FT or consulting) and target comp/rate
• Earliest start date
