About the role
Key Responsibilities
Troubleshooting & Problem Solving (Core Focus)
Diagnose and resolve complex technical issues across OpenRouter's API, spanning multiple LLM providers
Reproduce bugs in ambiguous environments — different SDKs, languages, frameworks, and auth configurations — using tools like curl, Postman, and small test apps
Read and interpret logs, headers, and request traces; identify whether the problem is client-side, OpenRouter-side, or an upstream provider issue vs. a user misconfiguration
Turn "it doesn't work" into actionable findings: exact steps to reproduce, clear hypotheses, and verified fixes or workarounds
Developer Communication & Advocacy
Respond to developer inquiries across support channels (email, Discord, GitHub) with clarity, empathy, and technical precision
Translate complex technical root causes into human-friendly explanations
Set expectations on timelines and next steps; provide proactive updates and close the loop
Identify patterns in support requests and advocate internally for documentation improvements, API design changes, or better messages
Self-Directed Research & Learning
Stay current with the rapidly evolving LLM ecosystem
Develop deep expertise in OpenRouter's routing logic, fallback behavior, rate limiting, streaming (SSE), and billing systems with minimal hand-holding
Bridge to Product & Engineering
Spot systemic issues underneath individual tickets and push for the fix that prevents 50 more
Identify trends in support volume to capture product feedback and inform roadmap priorities
