Job description

Role overview

A hybrid Developer Educator and Developer Relations role on a fully remote, globally distributed team that has been teaching modern web development for over a decade. The mission is to research new tools, frameworks, and best practices so developers do not have to fall into endless rabbit holes, then turn those insights into clear, bite-sized lessons, content, and community conversations. This is a generalist position for a high-energy technical storyteller who can learn complex topics fast, break them down simply, and stay in constant contact with the developer community.

Responsibilities

• Research emerging developer tools, AI integrations, and best practices, then build small prototypes to validate ideas worth teaching
• Create educational content such as video courses, written tutorials, workshops, screencasts, and learning repositories
• Engage with developer communities through events, online forums, social channels, and direct conversations
• Represent the team as a speaker at international conferences and community events
• Contribute to open-source projects, demos, and sample code that reinforce the lessons taught
• Own the full pipeline from research through prototyping, teaching, and iterating based on community feedback

Requirements

• Deep experience in at least one area of modern web development
• Strong fundamentals across the broader web stack rather than a single-framework specialty
• Ability to learn unfamiliar technologies quickly and translate them into clear, accessible material
• Confident on stage, with experience presenting technical topics to large audiences
• Self-directed, organized, and comfortable owning a content pipeline end to end
• Excellent writing and communication skills for producing trusted educational material

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience with AI developer tools, SDKs, and automation workflows
• A track record of open-source contributions
• Comfort with public speaking, workshops, and community building

Benefits and work setup

• Fully remote, async-first work with a few overlapping hours for collaboration
• Communication primarily through team chat and a shared documentation workspace
• Competitive salary plus performance bonuses
• Flexible hours and flexible paid time off, with paid local bank holidays
• Annual company workcation trip
• Budget for equipment, training, and conferences
• Hardware provided for recording and screencasting
• Opportunities to travel and speak at international events
