Staff Software Engineer, Product QualityYou will own LiteLLM's product quality across a surface area that spans 100+ provider integrations and a large volume of outside contributions. Your mandate is to make quality automatic at our scale, without slowing down how fast we ship. You'll build the conformance testing, CI, and release infrastructure that catches problems before they reach production, and you'll set the bar on the code paths that matter most.
Responsibilities- Own product quality end to end and drive regressions toward zero
- Build a provider conformance test suite covering streaming, tool calling, structured output, error mapping, cost tracking, and auth modes
- Own CI and release tooling that is fast, deterministic, and trusted enough that a red gate blocks a ship
- Build canary and synthetic traffic detection to catch upstream provider drift before customers do
- Own release channels so we ship daily at the edge while enterprise stays stable
- Do real root cause analysis and turn every escaped defect into a permanent test
- Raise the engineering bar through code and review, not through process documents
What We're Looking For- Experience at a startup (Seed to Series D) with a willingness to wear multiple hats
- Built test or release infrastructure for a system with a large external integration surface, or maintained CI for an OSS project with heavy outside contribution
- Strong debugging depth: can enter an unfamiliar codebase and find real root causes, not just symptoms
- Opinions about what makes a test suite worth trusting
- Track record of raising quality on a team without becoming the bottleneck
- Open source contributions on GitHub or similar
Why Join LiteLLM?- Own the quality mandate at a high-impact technical company
- Deep technical ownership, in the codebase, not in meetings
- Fast-paced environment with real scale behind it
- Competitive salary and benefits
