About the roleWe're looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to join our small but growing DevRel team. You'll work closely with the Head of DevRel and own a significant portion of our technical content strategy and community execution, from blog posts and tutorials to live demos, workshops, and conference talks.
This is a high-autonomy role. You won't be handed a backlog to execute. You'll help shape what gets built and why, co-owning parts of the DevRel strategy. We're a small team and we move fast, so the ability to self-direct, prioritize ruthlessly, and deliver with speed and precision matters a lot.
Our primary audience is the technical practitioner: developers, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, and software architects working in and around enterprise software. You'll need to be able to speak their language with credibility. That means being hands-on, technically sharp, and genuinely curious about the problems they face.
Responsibilities- Own and execute technical content across formats: written tutorials, blog posts, code examples, video walkthroughs, and live demos
- Speak at developer conferences, meetups, and community events
- Design and run developer workshops (in-person and virtual)
- Contribute to the Unleash OSS ecosystem: code samples, integrations, documentation improvements, and SDK examples
- Engage with the developer community across channels and represent Unleash with authenticity
- Collaborate with Customer Success and Go-to-Market teams to identify technical content gaps and opportunities
- Stay sharp on the AI/LLM tooling landscape and help translate Unleash's value into that context for developers building AI-powered applications
About you- You have 5+ years of hands-on experience, spanning real software engineering and Developer Relations (you've done both, not just talked about both)
- You've shipped production code and can build working demos, integrations, and code samples from scratch
- You have genuine experience in Developer Relations: you've spoken at conferences, produced technical content, and know what it takes to build credibility in a developer community
- You're comfortable with CI/CD, cloud-native technologies, and modern DevOps/platform engineering practices
- You have hands-on experience building with AI/LLM tools and can speak fluently about integrating AI into real applications
- You can speak credibly to a technical enterprise audience of developers, architects, and platform teams in large organizations, without losing the startup instinct for speed and pragmatism
- You thrive with autonomy. You don't need a lot of hand-holding, and you default to action over process
- A growing LinkedIn or YouTube presence is a strong plus. We're not looking for influencer-scale followings, but an established voice in the developer community signals the right mindset
- Familiarity with OpenFeature or the feature management space is a bonus, not a requirement
