Senior Developer Advocate

Unleash•New York, NY

About The Position

We'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.

Requirements

5+ years of hands-on experience, spanning real software engineering and Developer Relations (you've done both, not just talked about both)
Shipped production code and can build working demos, integrations, and code samples from scratch
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
Comfortable with CI/CD, cloud-native technologies, and modern DevOps/platform engineering practices
Hands-on experience building with AI/LLM tools and can speak fluently about integrating AI into real applications
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
Thrive with autonomy. You don't need a lot of hand-holding, and you default to action over process
Experience level: Senior Individual Contributor, 10+ years across software engineering and Developer Relations
Core skills: Technical content creation, public speaking, live demos, developer education
Technical skills: Node.js, TypeScript, CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native technologies (e.g. Kubernetes, OpenFeature), AI/LLM tooling and integrations
Additional skills: OSS contribution, SDK/integration development, video production, community building

Nice To Haves

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

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
