Role: Senior/Staff Security Engineer - LiteLLM (first dedicated Security Engineer hire)

Title: Senior / Staff Security Engineer (seniority flexible for the right candidate)

Reporting to: Ishaan

Business need for the hire:

LiteLLM (AI Gateway used by Adobe, Netflix, NASA) is hiring its first Security Engineer. Urgency is heightened by a supply chain attack affecting the security industry this year. LiteLLM wants to get ahead of application, infrastructure, and software-supply-chain risk before it becomes a bigger liability at scale.

Wider team and where this role sits: This is a foundational/greenfield hire; no existing security team. Candidate comes in as a senior individual contributor but is expected to build and own the security function from scratch, with headcount growing underneath them over time. Strong mentorship component as the team scales.

Essential skills required to interview a candidate:

1. Application security, CI/CD, and SDLC security (top priority)

2. Proven experience setting up a security program from scratch (0→1), not just operating in an existing one

3. Python and/or Rust proficiency

4. Comp sci / back-end engineering fundamentals

5. Genuine passion for security outside of work (CTFs, vuln research, bug bounties, open-source security projects)

6. Technical degree (CS or related field, or equivalent practical experience)

Questions to screen candidates:

•Walk me through your background in security; how did you come up in the field?

• Have you designed and built your own security program from the ground up, or only operated within an existing one? (Looking specifically for self-starters, not maintainers.)

• What does your involvement in security look like outside of work (CTFs, research, bug bounties, OSS)?

Interview Process: Could you please shed some context on what this may look like?

Selling points of the role/company:

• First security hire at a widely-used, fast-growing open-source AI Gateway (Adobe, Netflix, NASA as customers)

• True greenfield ownership; build the security function and practices from scratch

• Direct partnership with engineering, not a post-hoc security gatekeeper

• Path to building and mentoring a team as headcount grows under this hire

• Meaningful equity upside at seed stage (see below)

Remote-friendly with travel

Location: Remote acceptable; San Francisco preferred.

Salary: $220k-$260k base

Benefits: Health, dental, and vision.

Equity: 0.1%–0.3%, at ~$15M ARR, and seed stage

Senior Verification & Validation Engineer

Do you want to define how the next generation of robots are tested, validated, and released?

Interested in building the testing standards and infrastructure that will define how autonomous robots are validated at scale?

One of our robotics partners is continuing to scale its autonomous robotics platform - and they’re looking for a Senior Verification & Validation Engineer to take ownership of the testing strategy across their robotics products.

This is a highly influential role sitting at the intersection of robotics, software, hardware, autonomy, and data. You'll be key in ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of complex robotic systems, working across hardware, software, autonomy, and data capture.

You’ll establish the testing framework, build the gold-standard testing environment, define performance benchmarks, and ultimately be responsible for approving production software releases.

Your role:

• Own the overall verification and validation strategy across the robotics platform
• Develop and implement hardware and software testing procedures across multiple engineering teams
• Lead the establishment of a state-of-the-art testing environment for continuous robot testing
• Develop meaningful benchmarks to measure autonomy, data capture, and wider system performance
• Create repeatable testing standards that can be used across different teams and product areas
• Own the testing and approval process for production-grade software releases
• Establish streamlined workflows for software versioning and release management
• Implement a predictable release candidate cadence across the robotics platform
• Work cross-functionally to test new features, assess system performance, and validate bug fixes

This is more than traditional QA or software testing - you’ll help define the standards, infrastructure, and processes that determine whether autonomous robotic systems are ready for production.

Ideally you have:

• Strong experience in software and hardware testing, verification, validation, or quality assurance
• A proven track record of testing complex robotic or autonomous systems
• Strong knowledge of mobile robotics, autonomy, and data capture technologies
• Experience with test automation tools and methodologies
• Experience developing structured testing strategies, procedures, and performance benchmarks
• Strong understanding of software release processes and production-grade validation
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively across hardware, software, autonomy, and product teams

This is a senior-level opportunity to take real ownership of the verification and validation function within a growing robotics organisation.

Apply now for immediate consideration!

If you want to shape how autonomous robots are tested, validated, and released into the real world... then look no further. This is your chance to play a critical role in building reliable, production-grade robotics systems.
