About the role

First community and developer relations hire at LightSprint. Build and own the community and developer-education motion, translate user feedback into product input, and represent LightSprint publicly through content and launches.

Responsibilities

  • Build the community from zero. Own our Discord/Slack, spin up rituals that make people want to show up (demo days, build-in-public showcases, office hours) and turn early users into evangelists.
  • Ship content that teaches, not markets. Demo videos, tutorials, templates, and technical deep-dives that show what spec-driven delivery looks like in practice, for PMs and engineers alike.
  • Be the feedback loop. Synthesize what the community is saying into sharp product input for the founders. You’ll know before anyone else where the product delights and where it confuses.
  • Represent LightSprint in public. Talks, podcasts, meetups, launch posts, and the ongoing conversation about how AI changes how teams ship software.
  • Own launches. Coordinate Product Hunt, Hacker News, X, and community channels so every release lands with momentum.

Qualifications

  • You’ve done DevRel, community, or developer education at a developer tool or technical product, ideally early-stage, where you built the motion rather than inherited it. 3+ years of relevant experience.
  • You can use the product for real. You don’t need to be a professional engineer, but you can ship something with AI coding tools, read a PR, and explain a preview environment without notes.
  • Exceptional written and spoken communication. You make complex, technical things feel simple and exciting, to a PM and to a staff engineer, in the same piece.
  • You’re a builder of audiences. You have evidence: a community you grew, a following, a channel, a newsletter, something that shows people choose to listen to you.
