About the Opportunity

Our client is a high-growth, VC-backed startup redefining how developers build and integrate distributed systems. Their platform eliminates traditional API and integration complexity, enabling strongly typed, compile-time safe connections between services written in any language — dramatically reducing boilerplate and accelerating modern architectures.

As the company moves deeper into its go-to-market phase, they are hiring a Developer Advocate to become the bridge between the product and the global developer community.

This role combines hands‑on technical depth, community leadership, and public‑facing influence .

The Mission

You will shape how developers discover, understand, and adopt a new paradigm in software integration. Acting as the external voice of the platform, you will educate, inspire, and grow a global developer ecosystem through content, events, and community engagement.

What You'll Do

• Represent the technology at global meetups, conferences, hackathons, and workshops
• Build strong relationships with developer communities, influencers, and OSS contributors
• Create high‑impact technical content (videos, demos, tutorials, live coding, talks, podcasts)
• Collaborate closely with Engineering, CTO, and DevEx teams on product messaging
• Partner with the internal content team to design educational campaigns
• Gather community feedback and influence product roadmap decisions
• Advocate for simpler, more productive modern software architectures

What We're Looking For

• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
• 3+ years in Developer Advocacy, DevRel, or public‑facing technical roles
• Strong programming background in C#, Java, or Python
• Solid understanding of microservices and mobile/web‑to‑cloud integration
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Proven passion for developer communities and storytelling
• Willingness to travel monthly to global tech hubs

Strong Plus

• Experience at developer tools or high‑growth startups
• Track record of scaling developer communities
• Public technical presence (talks, blogs, podcasts, OSS)
• Familiarity with AI‑assisted development or cloud‑native systems
• Experience with API or platform product launches

Work Authorization & Location

Candidates must be eligible to work in Germany or the UK and be based in Berlin or London (or open to relocation). This is a remote‑first role with frequent global travel (Berlin, Dubai, San Francisco, and other tech hubs).

Why This Role

• Fully covered global tech conference travel
• Work on cutting‑edge developer infrastructure
• High‑growth startup environment with unicorn ambition
• Remote‑first flexibility
• Stock options tied to community impact
• Highly technical, fast‑moving team

If you are deeply technical, community‑driven, and excited about shaping how the next generation of developers build distributed systems, this role will strongly align with your trajectory...
