- Lead the development of tooling, linting rules, and documentation pipelines that ensure consistent API documentation and reduce manual effort.
- Build a deep understanding of developer user journeys and use those insights to shape content strategy, information architecture, and integration guidance.

- Define and uphold standards for SDK design, documentation structure, changelogs, and code samples across all external-facing surfaces.
- Champion a developer-first culture, ensuring API and SDK design reviews consider clarity, stability, and integrator empathy.
- Strengthen operational excellence by improving documentation quality, maintainability, and accessibility, and by investing in automation that keeps docs accurate by default.
Required:
- 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering, with significant exposure to developer-facing products or APIs.
- Strong programming experience in JavaScript/TypeScript and deep familiarity with RESTful APIs, OpenAPI, and modern integration patterns.
- Demonstrated success working with product and engineering teams to influence API and SDK design based on external developer needs.
- Experience creating and maintaining internal tools, scripts, or pipelines to automate content generation, testing, or validation of developer artifacts.
Preferred:
- Experience building or contributing to SDKs, client libraries, or CLI tools for public APIs.
- Understanding of API versioning, breaking change detection, and changelog automation.
- Exposure to CI/CD workflows for publishing developer assets (e.g., SDKs, docs, examples).
- Passion for developer advocacy, technical education, or open-source contributions targeting integrator audiences.
