Backblaze is a cloud storage company that provides scalable and secure data backup solutions for both businesses and individuals. Their B2 Cloud Storage service offers S3 compatible object storage, allowing users to easily protect and manage their data with transparent pricing. Backblaze specializes in automatic and unlimited backup services for computer systems, ensuring data protection and recovery options for users, while also supporting integration with applications for enhanced functionality.

📋 Description

• Create technical content that teaches developers how to build with Backblaze B2: tutorials, sample applications, reference architectures, blog posts, and short-form video • Build and publish working code examples and demos — especially for AI/ML workflows (training data pipelines, model artifact storage, inference infrastructure), media workflows, and application storage • Contribute to and improve developer documentation, SDKs, and quickstart guides • Translate what you’re hearing from developers into actionable product feedback for Engineering and Product • Be genuinely present in the developer communities where our users live — social media, Discord, Slack, GitHub, and elsewhere • Represent Backblaze at developer events: speak, demo, show up, and be worth talking to. We attend conferences across AI/ML, media, cloud infrastructure, and startup ecosystems • Build relationships in the AI/ML, media, and cloud infrastructure developer communities that generate inbound awareness for Backblaze • Support Flamethrower startup cohort members in getting to production faster — answer technical questions, sanity-check architectures, and document patterns worth sharing broadly • Work closely with the Director of Startup & Developer Relations, as well as our product team, lifecycle marketing, and product marketing to identify common technical blockers and create content that removes them • Partner with Marketing on ecosystem storytelling, technical blog strategy, and developer-facing content • Maintain a consistent feedback loop from developers to Product — surface friction points, integration gaps, and unmet needs

🎯 Requirements

• 4–7 years of hands-on experience as a software developer or engineer, with meaningful time working with cloud infrastructure and object storage (S3, B2, GCS, or equivalent) • Direct experience building or integrating AI/ML workflows that involve storage — training data pipelines, model artifact management, inference infrastructure, or similar workloads • You write working code. You may use AI tools to accelerate it — but you understand what you’re shipping and can explain it to another developer • An established presence in developer communities — a social following, conference talks, a technical blog, open source contributions, or some combination. We’re not counting followers; we’re looking for signal that you show up and people pay attention • Strong written communication: you can write a clear technical tutorial and a crisp internal summary with equal ease • Self-directed — you don’t need a content calendar handed to you to know what to build next

🏖️ Benefits

• Healthcare for family, including dental and vision • Competitive compensation and 401K • RSU grants for full-time employees • ESPP program • Flexible vacation policy • Maternity & paternity leave • MacBook Pro to use for work, plus a generous stipend to personalize your workstation • Childcare bonus (human children only) • Fertility treatment and support • Learning & development program • Commuter benefits • Culture that supports a healthy work-life balance
