  • Act as the technical voice of the customer back to engineering

What We're Looking For

  • Technical depth and real familiarity with the LiteLLM product surface

  • Obsessed with customers and making them successful with the product

  • Obsessed with solving root causes rather than patching over problems

  • Metrics-driven and hardworking, ready to move through a high volume of tickets

  • A strong bias toward understanding problems deeply

  • Competitive salary, health, dental, and vision benefits, 401k plan with 3.5% match.
