About the role

Senior Developer Advocate based in the San Francisco Bay Area, focused on engaging the AI developer community, building relationships, and shaping LaunchDarkly’s presence in Bay Area AI conversations through events, content, and evangelism.

Responsibilities

  • Show up consistently: attend Bay Area developer events several times a week (meetups, demo nights, hackathons, conferences), building real relationships with AI and platform engineers over months, not transactions over days
  • Listen more than you talk: bring back structured signal on what practitioners are building, where they're stuck, and how they talk about agents, releases, and runtime control
  • Demonstrate, don't pitch: build and show small, credible demos on AgentControl and the LaunchDarkly platform, and hold your own when the technical questions get hard
  • Add to the conversation: write event recaps and practitioner-grade content that people in the community actually want to read, rather than broadcasting at them
  • Earn the right to convene: over time, organize gatherings around problems developers actually have, not around LaunchDarkly as a brand
  • Feed the team: route relationships, signal, and opportunities to the owners who can act on them, with enough context attached to act

Qualifications

  • Experience in developer advocacy, community, solutions engineering, customer success, or another customer-facing technical role
  • Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with the ability to attend events in person several times a week, including evenings
  • Technically credible: you can build and demo real things and hold a deep technical conversation without a script
  • Already active in, or genuinely drawn to, the AI developer scene
  • A strong written voice: your recaps make people who weren't in the room feel like they missed something

  • health, vision, and dental insurance
  • mental health benefits
