Job description

We are an open source feature flagging and A/B testing platform that helps companies make better data-driven product decisions. Our platform gives any company the power of a customized deployment and A/B testing solution like those used by AirBnB, Netflix, Uber, etc. without having to build it. Used in production by thousands of companies globally.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

We are building an open source feature flagging and A/B testing platform. If you love the engineering challenges faced by large tech companies, but want the ownership and flexibility of a small startup, then we are good for you.

We are a small team, distributed across the US, and backed by YCombinator and Khosla Ventures. We’re helping companies release code quickly and confidently while measuring the impact of what they launch.

As an open source company, we are focused on bottom-up adoption and building a product that engineers love to use. We have an amazing open source community on Slack that gives us constant feedback, feature requests, and ideas. We are already used in production by hundreds of companies and we’re just getting started!

POSITION OVERVIEW

Some of the problems you’ll be working on

• Dev Tools Extension. We have a simple Chrome extension that lets developers quickly test feature flags on their websites, but there is so much we could add to turn it into a world-class developer experience.
• Technical Content. We supports dozens of different databases, programming languages, and frameworks. We want every developer to have relevant documentation, tutorials, and example code for their unique tech stack so they can start using our product quickly.
• Community Engagement. We have a thriving open source Slack community and want to continue growing and engaging our users. This may involve organizing meetups and talks, running hack weeks and contests, and speaking at conferences.

Requirements

• Previous experience in an engineering or developer advocate role
• Track record of published technical content and/or public speaking
• Fluent English and good communication skills
• Startup experience or interest working in a small company
• Bonus: Contributed to an open-source project
