Job description

At JetBrains, we’re building Air, an AI-native platform for software development that connects developer workflows, team-level collaboration, and organizational control into a single coherent system. This platform will serve as the execution and governance layer for AI-driven development, deeply integrated with developer tools and designed to work across teams, products, and environments. This is a long-term strategic investment for JetBrains and a key pillar of our vision for the future of software development.

The Air team is looking for a Developer Advocate to help developers understand, adopt, and shape the future of agentic development.

In this role, you will represent Air in the developer community. You’ll create technical content, demonstrate real-world use cases, engage with developers online and in person, and bring community feedback directly to the product team.

You’ll help developers understand how to use agents effectively in their workflows, while also helping the Air team learn how developers actually want to build with them.

This role sits at the intersection of developer experience, content, and community.

Responsibilities

• Produce videos, demos, and written guides that showcase real-world Air workflows.
• Explore agent-driven development scenarios and share practical experiments.
• Build example projects and tutorials.

Engage with the Developer Community

• Participate in conversations on X, Reddit, and other developer platforms.
• Answer technical questions and help developers get started with Air.
• Share updates and insights from the Air team.

Represent Air Publicly

• Speak at developer conferences and events.
• Host Air community meetups and workshops.
• Build relationships with developer communities and open-source projects.

Collaborate with the Product Team

• Share insights and feedback from the developer community.
• Help identify friction points and opportunities for improvement.
• Contribute to product messaging and developer documentation.

Requirements

• Experience building software and working with modern developer tools.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted or agentic development workflows.
• The ability to explain complex technical topics clearly.
• Experience creating technical content, including videos, articles, and demos.
• An existing presence or reputation in the developer community.
• Comfort engaging publicly and speaking at events.
• Curiosity about new development workflows and emerging tools.

What We Offer

• The opportunity to help shape Air, JetBrains’ new platform for agentic development.
• A chance to influence how developers build software with AI agents.
• Support from a team that values autonomy and experimentation.
• The opportunity to grow a global presence as a voice in the emerging agentic development ecosystem.

The base salary range (per year) for this position in the posted work location(s) is $144,000 - $255,000 USD.

We are an equal opportunity employer.

We know great ideas can come from anyone, anywhere. That’s why we do our best to create an open and inclusive workplace – one that welcomes everyone regardless of their background, identity, religion, age, accessibility needs, or orientation.
