Job description

Our community includes developers, designers, product managers, and people who don’t fit neatly into a job title. What connects them is that they’re making things, increasingly in code, and care about making them well.

We need someone who builds real relationships and makes things happen: a meetup that people return to, a thoughtful dinner, a welcoming Discord, a reply that gets someone unstuck.

You’ll also learn our products deeply enough to teach them. Show a workflow in a short video, write a useful post, answer a question on social, and bring the hard problems back to us. You’ll work directly with Paul, a longtime developer-relations practitioner.

What you’ll own

• Create and run meetups, dinners, workshops, and other gatherings, including the invitations, logistics, hosting, and follow-through.
• Launch our Discord community and nurture it into a place where members help each other and want to return.
• Be present on social: join conversations, answer product questions with practical guidance, and connect people.
• Use Impeccable and Impeccable PRs in real projects so your guidance comes from experience.
• Make short videos, demos, posts, and tutorials that help people discover what they can build.
• Turn recurring questions and real friction into clear feedback for the product team. Care about participation and useful outcomes as much as reach.

What we’re looking for

• You bring senior-level judgment and a track record of owning work from an ambiguous problem through a shipped result. You set priorities, make sound tradeoffs, and know when to involve others.
• You have deep expertise in something and curiosity that extends well beyond it.
• You see what needs doing, exercise judgment, and follow through without waiting for a perfectly defined brief.
• You already use AI tools in your work, question their output, and stay responsible for the result.
• You’ve brought people together and kept a community alive beyond its first event. Community building is essential.
• You can set community priorities, run programs independently, and use participation and feedback to decide what to change. You bring senior-level experience in community building, even if you’re still developing your advocacy skills.
• You follow through: people get replies, venues get booked, and good conversations turn into lasting relationships.
• You’re a clear, generous communicator who can meet developers, designers, and PMs where they are.
• You’re comfortable learning tools in a real codebase, trying things yourself, and saying when you need to investigate an answer.
• You’re willing to demonstrate the products publicly and grow your video and teaching skills.

Location and travel

San Francisco preferred · US remote by exception. Be available for at least 2–3 trips per month as needed for events, community gatherings, and partners.

What we offer

• Ownership of a meaningful part of the product or community, with direct access to the people building it.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Flexible time off. Put care into the work, and take the time you need to rest.
