Developers play a critical role in the success at Mailchimp having built thousands of integrations on our open platform.  We believe that our developer advocates are empowering developers to empower the underdog.

  • You will be the "Voice of the Developer" by championing developers cross-functionally within Mailchimp, translating developer needs into content and educational materials
  • In particular, it's critical to have a strong working relationship with Mailchimp's Engineering team. That includes working with Engineering Management to help identify talent and amplify Mailchimp Engineering voices in the development community
  • You will scope and build sample apps, tutorials and guides with minimal guidance, producing code and content for the developer audience
  • You’ll lead the content and editorial process for our Engineering blog
  • You’ll work closely with our Technical Content team to guide our Developer Certification/Educational programs
  • You will grow and develop the success of the Mailchimp developer experience finding innovative ways to create additional content and educational opportunities
  • You will conduct proactive and reactive one-one-one outreach with developers to get feedback and improve the experience
  • You’ll work with the broader Developer Advocacy team to cultivate our Mailchimp-owned developer communities

  • Your passion for technology inspires you to explore your curiosity; you love learning new things 
  • You have working knowledge of PHP and either Ruby, Python or Node
  • You have direct experience in Developer Relations, Developer Support, and/or Developer Documentation with a passion for external partner interaction and an awareness of business needs
  • You have a deep knowledge of REST APIs, experience building and publishing apps, and creating tools for developers. Advanced knowledge of Mailchimp's API a plus
  • You have excellent verbal, written, and presentation-based communication skills; consistently delivering well-polished communications both internally and externally
