The Role
As a Senior Developer Advocate, you will produce technical content, educate the developer community, engage at events, and foster discussions in JavaScript and TypeScript.
Summary Generated by Built In

We seek a respected and influential voice within the JavaScript community to join our team. As an experienced developer, you write code and have produced a diverse range of technical content to educate developers, including videos, tutorials, workshops, and conference talks, sharing insights, fostering discussions, and inspiring others to adopt best practices. Your passion lies in sharing knowledge and equipping fellow developers with cutting-edge technology.

With at least five years of experience in a technical role, preferably as a developer within an enterprise environment, you bring extensive expertise in JavaScript and understand the challenges developers encounter at large organizations. 

You might have some experience as a developer advocate, or you might have been educating developers on the side and are now looking to do it full-time. Although it is not mandatory, a general understanding of MongoDB would be a plus.

As an effective communicator and educator, you can simplify complex concepts and facilitate understanding. While developing expertise in our platform, you will appreciate its core capabilities and how it is used with enterprise languages.

Our team is built to work together, share knowledge, and help each other grow. You will work with others at all levels, supporting peer reviews, building demos, delivering sessions, and creating other content.

Above all, you should be genuinely passionate about equipping other developers to be more productive and successful in their day-to-day jobs.

This role will be based remotely in the United States.

Position Expectations
  • Produce high-quality technical content, including thought leadership articles, tutorials with associated code, hands-on workshops, and video content to educate and engage developers within your community
  • Establish yourself as a recognized authority within the organization and the broader developer community, leveraging your expertise in JavaScript and TypeScript
  • Deliver hands-on workshops virtually and at in-person events
  • Maintain and continually develop proficiency in one or more complementary programming languages to communicate with developers and contribute to product improvements effectively
  • Work closely with the product and growth marketing teams, offering expert counsel on the most effective ways to engage and equip the developer community online and in person
  • Partner with our marketing teams to co-create compelling, authentic messaging and strategies that resonate with our target audiences
  • Champion our company’s tools and technologies, demonstrating how they benefit developers in the JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystems
  • Engage with members of the community through forums, Meetups, and popular industry specific events

Requirements

  • Strong background in software development with a focus on JavaScript and TypeScript
  • Five years of technical experience, preferably as a developer, with some advocacy experience and a high-level understanding of MongoDB would be a plus
  • Proficiency in building solutions with JavaScript in the context of large enterprises
  • Proven track record of creating content (tutorials, guides, documentation) to facilitate learning and adoption of JavaScript and TypeScript technologies
  • Participate in community events, conferences, webinars, or online platforms to showcase expertise in JavaScript and TypeScript topics
  • A well-established presence in the JavaScript community (e.g., blogging, speaking, open-source contributions)
  • 10% - 25% travel
