If you are referring to the part in Gollum's cave he could only see because his sword, Sting glowed blue in the presence of orcs and goblins. Although there where none in that cave, there where some near enough for Sting to glow faintly.
The dwarves sent their burglar to check things out. Bilbo managed to get himself caught when he tried to pick the pocket of one of the trolls.
{| |- | He listened to the guards talking. He had already found the cells of the 12 other dwarves. When they talked of another dwarf being held in the dungeons, he guessed that it had to be Thorin. |}
He was not identified by name. He was sent to look in the area that Bilbo had last been seen in by Gandalf. He was strong and surefooted and carried Bilbo down to the camp.
Bilbo is hired by 13 dwarves as a thief or burglar, as well as to make the party 14 rather than 13.
I believe that Bilbo was first referred to as a burglar in chapter one of The Hobbit, when Bilbo has just shrieked in fright at the things that the dwarves were saying.

He looks more like a grocer than a burglar!"
On the first night of their adventure, Bilbo is sent to investigate the shining red light because it is a mysterious and potentially dangerous occurrence that piques the group's curiosity. Gandalf and the dwarves feel that Bilbo, as the designated burglar, should take the lead in determining the source of the light, which they suspect could be a threat or an opportunity. This moment highlights Bilbo's role in the group and foreshadows his growth throughout the journey. Ultimately, it sets the stage for the challenges and discoveries that lie ahead.

Gandalf is the one who sends a man, specifically Thorin Oakenshield, in search of Bilbo Baggins. He believes that Bilbo, being a hobbit, could be a valuable asset in their quest to reclaim the Lonely Mountain and its treasure from the dragon Smaug. Gandalf's intuition about Bilbo's potential as a burglar leads to the unexpected adventure that unfolds in "The Hobbit."
