📋 Description

• Creating regular written and video content covering API management, observability, AI/API topics, and real customer implementation experiences • Attending and speaking at developer meetups and community events across Western Europe (targeting weekly or bi-weekly) • Building and maintaining technical documentation that developers actually want to read • Covering ecosystem integrations and how-tos: EKS setup, Grafana optimisation, OpenTelemetry, and more • Engaging authentically with developer communities online and in person • Feeding community insight back into product and marketing teams

🎯 Requirements

• Experience • - A computer science degree or equivalent technical background (you don't need to be a senior engineer, but you need to be able to read code, understand architecture, and get your hands dirty) • - Some experience creating content – writing, video, talks, or a combination – even if it's personal projects or university work • - Comfort speaking to small groups; meetups and community events should excite you, not fill you with dread • - Genuine curiosity about the API and infrastructure space • Skills and attributes • - Technical aptitude – you can learn fast, explain clearly, and go deep when needed • - A creator's instinct – you want to make things and put them out into the world • - Authentic communication style – people trust you because you're real, not polished • - Comfortable with travel across Western Europe as a regular part of the role • - Hustle, self-directed, and energised by a small team environment • - Passion for the AI/API space and where it's heading • - AI-native. Uses AI hourly, if not daily, but knows the difference between AI-assisted and AI slop. • Nice to have: • - Existing presence in developer communities (blog, YouTube, GitHub, conference talks) • - Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, observability tooling, or CI/CD pipelines • - Familiarity with API management concepts

🏖️ Benefits
