Senior/Staff Developer Advocate - Python Ecosystem (remote-only opportunity)

6 days ago Be among the first 25 applicants

TuxCare is hiring a Senior/Staff Developer Advocate for the Python ecosystem to shape how SecureChain (TuxCare's secure artifact delivery platform) is integrated into the modern software supply chain.

You'll serve as the bridge between Python developers, TuxCare's product, and the broader ecosystem—educating internal teams on how packages flow through modern toolchains, guiding implementation of SBOM verification and artifact trust, and helping TuxCare become the trusted source for secure Python artifacts.

Key Responsibilities

Drive Awareness through Developer Engagement

• Create technical content: blog posts, conference talks, documentation, YouTube videos
• Interact with Python developers on social media and in their favorite spaces (Discord/Slack, Reddit, X/Bluesky, Mastodon, mailing lists)
• Represent TuxCare at events and in online communities as a trusted voice on secure Python delivery
• Help developers adopt SecureChain tools and workflows in their everyday projects
  
  

Open Doors in the Ecosystem

• Use your network to establish relationships with OSS maintainers, vendors, and key platforms
• Explore strategic partnerships that position TuxCare as the official provider of LTS artifacts post-EOL
• Drive integrations with security tools and registries that can consume TuxCare's secure artifact stream
  
  

Guide SecureChain Implementation

• Work closely with engineering to define what SecureChain means for Python developers: SBOMs, trusted artifact delivery, reproducibility, etc
• Design reference implementations and developer-facing docs that show how to use SecureChain with pip, PyPI, Poetry, setuptools, PDM, uv, pip-tools, mise, Conda (including Anaconda/Miniconda workflows), and other Python dependency-management tools
• Incorporate best practices from ongoing initiatives in the Python ecosystem (e.g., PyPI's trusted publishing, PEP 668/691 for metadata and trust, OpenSSF efforts)
  
  

Educate TuxCare on the Python Ecosystem

• Teach internal teams how the Python ecosystem handles packaging, distribution, versioning, and dependency resolution
• Document real-world practices around SBOMs, CI/CD integration, and common threat models
• Analyze existing tooling (pip, PyPI, setuptools, Poetry, Conda/conda-forge workflows, SCA vendors) and identify ecosystem-specific attack surfaces and gaps
• (Staff level) Shape TuxCare's long-term strategy in the Python ecosystem, including influence on upstream standards, packaging PEPs, and trusted delivery practices
  
  
  

Requirements

What You'll Bring

• Strong technical experience with Python and its ecosystem: pip, PyPI, setuptools, Poetry, pip-tools, uv, PDM, mise, Conda/Anaconda (including conda-forge, conda-build, and conda-pack), as well as modern CI/CD pipelines
• Understanding the interplay and differences between the pip/PyPI toolchain and Conda/conda-forge workflows
• Proven experience advocating for or building secure developer workflows. A track record of speaking, writing, or leading community education efforts
• Ability to move fluidly between developer conversations and product strategy. Comfortable working cross-functionally with engineering, product, and marketing
• Willingness and ability to travel extensively (up to :40-50% of the time), including international travel, to represent TuxCare wherever prominent and influential Python communities and events are present (PyCon, EuroPython, PyData, SciPy, regional PyCons, etc.)
• (Staff level) Demonstrated leadership in the Python community, ability to influence upstream projects, and experience shaping ecosystem-wide practices.
