Lead developer relations to build community, run events, and grow ecosystem integrations for 's AI-powered search engine.
Обязанности
- Every agent needs to retrieve information, and the developer building that agent makes the call about how. Our job is to make that decision easy: in the frameworks they're using, in the communities where they're engaging, and in the talks or demos that showed them what perfect search can do.
- Community and evangelism sit at the center of this role, running memorable events and hackathons, and building a base of people who advocate for because the product earned it. Alongside that, you own the ecosystem, getting integrated into the frameworks, developer tools, and platforms our users already build on.
- You are the first dedicated DevRel leader, so you'll build the function. You’ll hire and coach developer advocates, but you will also stay hands-on. The credibility of this role rests on your ability to build and demo.
- This role is based in-person at our San Francisco HQ.
Требования
- 6+ years across developer relations, developer marketing, or engineering with a substantial public presence, including time at a company selling an API or developer platform.
- Deep craft as a communicator to developers: talks, workshops, streams, or writing you can point to, and a live demo you are proud of.
- Engineering credibility with the AI stack. You build with LLMs, agents, and retrieval, and you can hold a technical conversation with engineers.
- A track record building community from an early stage.
- Experience driving ecosystem or integration partnerships to shipped code, working with partner engineering teams and getting your integration maintained rather than merged and abandoned.
- Experience hiring or mentoring DevRel talent, and a point of view on what separates good from great.
- Judgment about measurement: you can defend how DevRel creates value.
Будет плюсом
- Open source maintainer experience or meaningful contributions developers would recognize.
- Experience at a company that grew primarily through developer adoption.
- Existing presence in the AI and agent developer community.
- Experience running a hackathon or developer conference program at scale.
- Time as a professional software engineer before moving into DevRel.

- is building a search engine for the AI era. Our Search API currently powers Agents, Fortune 500s and AI labs as we transform an industry that hasn't been disrupted since the 90s. We're a largely SF-based team of ~100 from Harvard, MIT, Meta, Google Research, ex-founders & dropouts alike.

- Own how shows up in the developer world: community spaces, hackathons, meetups, conference talks, open source presence, and the day-to-day of being useful to developers in public. Success is measured by active community engagement and by developer awareness in our target segments.
- Own the technical partnerships that put inside the tools developers already use: agent frameworks, orchestration libraries, IDEs and coding agents, and platform integrations. Drive these from first conversation through shipped, documented, maintained integration. Success is measured by integrations live and by developer adoption flowing through them.
- Own the programs that turn users into advocates: champions, ambassadors, community contributors, and the developers who build impressive things on and get amplified for it. Success is measured by third-party content and advocacy we did not pay for.
- Own reference applications, demos, workshops, and technical talks. You partner with Technical PMM, who owns the blog and organic content, while you own the material that gets built and shown live.
- Hire, lead, and set the bar for a growing DevRel team. Success is measured by the caliber of the people you attract and by whether they ship without you in the room.
- Own the channel that carries developer friction back to Product and Engineering: onboarding drop-off, API ergonomics, documentation gaps, and the things developers try that do not work. Success is measured by fixes shipped.
- Developers building agents know , and can name what it does better than the alternatives.
- is a first-class integration in the frameworks that matter, with usage to show for it.
- A real community exists, with contributors and advocates who are not on payroll.
- Demos and talks from this team are the material sales and marketing want to use.
- Developer friction gets fixed faster because someone owns carrying it inward.
- The function scales beyond you with a productive and cohesive team.
- Benchmarks, and organic discovery content: Technical PMM for Content.
- Commercial partnerships, marketplaces, co-marketing, and customer case studies: Customer & Partner Marketing.
- Press, analyst relations, and executive speaking placements: Communications.
