Technical Storyteller

Responsibilities

• Build and run the content engine to turn launches and engineering work into a reliable cadence of high-quality technical content.
• Design launch narratives, including announcements, docs-adjacent explainers, and demos; work closely with the Product team to build playbooks that reduce overhead for each launch.
• Identify customer stories, interview engineering teams, and write compelling content that resonates with other engineers.
• Produce high-bar technical content such as deep dives, benchmarks, teardowns, comparisons, and argumentative essays.
• Extend content across formats including video, YouTube, docs, changelog, conference talks, and company social accounts.

Requirements

• 5+ years writing for a technical audience (developer media, technical content marketing, DevRel, or engineering-adjacent journalism).
• Published work that has gained traction (e.g., front page of Hacker News, widely quoted threads, content engineers share, or self-built audience); links to writing samples required.
• Deep enough understanding of technical concepts to present them credibly; genuine curiosity about infrastructure, CI, and the broader market.
• Ability to extract stories from engineers by reading design docs or pull requests, developing a thesis, and asking targeted questions.
• Write with a distinct point of view, favoring arguable over safe content.
• Very online with strong instincts for developer social channels, Hacker News, X, and early trends.
• High autonomy to decide what is worth writing with no existing manager, briefs, or calendar.
