The role of Developer Advocate makes you a player in our marketing team, and our mission is to serve the growing interest around our products with the latest information, the deep dives into the technology, the latest news, and the learning that they need. All in different shapes and formats.

Remote

Who you Are

We’re looking for friendly people who learn quickly and are self-motivated. Since we work remotely, you will be given a lot of freedom. That, of course, comes with the responsibility to produce valuable assets for the company in the form of powerful, engaging content.

You should have a technical background and be familiar with programming and it’s recommended to be familiar with message queueing. But the most important thing is that you are motivated and willing to learn. You’re interested in learning new techniques and investigating new features. You want to attend and talk at meetups and conferences, as well as write technical blog posts. You should have experience doing research using multiple sources as well as have good writing skills in English.

What you’ll do

A role as Developer Advocate at 84code includes:

  • Attend internal discussions and plan upcoming content.
  • Research and write technical blog posts.
  • Discuss our tech solutions in different media channels and user forums.
  • Try out and evaluate new features, do performance tests and comparisons.
  • Attend and speak at meetups and conferences.
  • Be the link between the support team and the marketing team.
  • Identify customers’ needs and gaps in our content and recommend new topics.
  • Create manuscripts and record videos for social media.
  • Conduct simple keyword research and use SEO guidelines to increase web traffic.
  • Collaborate and discuss with open source maintainers about new features and improvements.
  • Compare different message queueing software platforms.

But, above all, you will be a part of a team and you and your skills will be a great value in many of our joint projects. This is a position with a lot of opportunities for the right person, and we encourage all our employees to shape their own roles (we highly believe in intrapreneurship). Therefore, you will have the autonomy to decide how your own role and tasks develop.

The position is fully remote. Occasionally, we organize workaways at various locations, which provide opportunities for the whole team to meet in person.

In this blog we have described our approach towards content and what creating content mean to us. How Educational Content Helps You Grow - CloudAMQP Hopefully, this will give you an insight to our way of working.
