Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or another STEM field, or equivalent practical experience.
2+ years of experience in software engineering, solutions engineering, developer relations, technical product marketing, or a related technical role at a B2B data infrastructure or AI startup.
Hands-on software development experience; proficient in SQL and comfortable building and presenting live product demos.
Strong technical foundation in databases, distributed systems, or lakehouse architectures; able to hold your own in technical conversations with engineers and technical buyers.
Strong writer who can produce clear, accurate technical content — from blog posts to tutorials to battlecards — with coaching on positioning and voice.
Confident presenter, comfortable delivering technical talks, webinars, and demos live and fielding questions from engineers.
Curious, high-energy, and eager to learn; thrives in a fast-moving, low-process startup environment and enjoys working across teams.

Responsibilities

Technical Content Creation: Research, write, and publish technical content — blog posts, tutorials, benchmarks, competitive comparisons, and solution briefs — that demonstrates product depth and drives awareness and adoption among engineers and technical buyers.
Developer Evangelism & speaking: Represent PhoenixAI and StarRocks to technical audiences — deliver webinars, speak at meetups and industry conferences, and present live product demos to prospects and at events.
Demos & Sample Code: Build and maintain product demos, sample applications, and short‑form video content that showcase the Agentic Database in realistic scenarios; keep them current as the product evolves.
Community Engagement: Engage directly with users in the StarRocks community channels, answer technical questions, surface recurring themes, and help grow an active, well‑informed developer community around the open‑source project.
Sales Enablement: Build and deliver technical enablement for Sales and Solutions — pitch decks, battlecards, demo scripts, and FAQs — plus regular training sessions, new‑hire onboarding, and competitive briefings that keep the field sharp on product and market.
Product Launches & Competitive Intelligence: Support product and feature launches with launch content, demos and enablement; track competitors such as ClickHouse, Snowflake, and Trino and turn what you learn into differentiated messaging, comparisons, and objection handling.
Messaging & Feedback Loop: Contribute to PhoenixAI's positioning and messaging across the open‑source (StarRocks) and commercial offerings, and bring signals from the community, customers, and sales back to product and marketing to sharpen the narrative.
Cross‑Functional Partnership: Work closely with product management, engineering, sales, and marketing to keep content, demos, and enablement accurate, current, and grounded in real product capabilities.
