Job Description

As the first Developer Advocate at this high-growth AI startup, you will shape the public narrative around autonomous code review.

Location

San Francisco, USA

Why this role is remarkable

  • Opportunity to be the "zero-to-one" public voice for a category-defining AI coding platform.
  • Join a company backed by top-tier VCs with massive traction, currently reviewing nearly a billion lines of code monthly.
  • Work alongside a talent-dense team of engineers from elite tech companies like Stripe, Google, and Figma.

What You Will Do

  • Publish commentary and lead signature industry projects like the State of AI Coding Report to influence the ecosystem.
  • Translate complex AI features into clear technical messaging, demos, and documentation that earn developer trust.
  • Drive adoption within high-signal open-source teams and manage the end-to-end launch process for new product features.

The ideal candidate

  • Demonstrable experience writing and speaking about technical topics with a unique, authoritative point of view.
  • Deeply immersed in the AI coding ecosystem with enough technical depth to write code examples and debug issues.
  • Proven track record in developer-facing roles such as DevRel, community management, or technical content creation.

Who are Jack & Jill?

Ok, I'll go first. I'm Jack, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call, learning what you're great at and what you want from your career. Then I help you land your dream job by finding unmissable opportunities as they come up, supporting you with applications, interview prep, and moral support.

And I'm Jill, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand who they're looking to hire. Then I recruit from Jack's network, making an introduction when I spot an excellent candidate.

How does this work?

  • Jack's an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. He works for you.
  • Jill is the AI recruiter working for the company. She recruits from Jack's network.
  • If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Jack will send you excellent alternatives.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.

Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
