Developer Experience

Summary

Join Valiantys as the new Head of Developer Experience (DevEx) and architect, commercialize, and govern a global portfolio of DevEx services. You will work to solve platform sprawl, toolchain fragmentation, and slow software velocity by embedding AI as a design principle. Collaborate with various teams to shape offerings spanning advisory, analysis, and implementation, ultimately giving developers more time and organizations a competitive edge. You will define DevEx service architecture, establish scope and pricing models, govern delivery standards, and embed AI into solution blueprints. Translate market signals into viable services, drive co-sell motions, support presales, and package high-impact AI use cases. Partner with practice leads on resource planning and run retrospectives to refine scope and validate market fit. Identify where AI can reduce friction and lead experiments to prove measurable gains. Coach sales and delivery teams and report on solution performance.

Requirements

• You bring 8+ years in product engineering, developer tooling, platform teams, or software delivery consulting (multi-country leadership a plus)
• Proven success building or leading DevEx or Platform Engineering initiatives in complex organizations
• Deep knowledge of modern SDLC workflows and toolchains (Jira, GitHub/GitLab, CI/CD, observability)
• Familiarity with emerging AI applications that augment developers (copilots, code generation, automated testing)
• Strong commercial acumen: structuring offers, pricing for value, evaluating delivery models
• Excellent communicator who distills complexity into client-relevant insights and repeatable service patterns
• Ability to separate signal from noise when assessing AI vendors, tooling, and real-world impact

Responsibilities

• Define DevEx service architecture (accelerators, discovery & transformation offers) that solve real-world pain, not just pitch tech
• Establish scope, intake criteria, pricing models, and commercial guardrails
• Govern delivery standards, quality benchmarks, and knowledge assets across engagements
• Embed AI copilots, LLM workflows, and automation into solution blueprints
• Translate market signals into differentiated, viable services—especially those enabled by AI
• Drive co-sell motion with Atlassian GTM teams for DevEx solutions
• Support presales with positioning, diagnostics, and client-facing collateral
• Package high-impact AI use cases (code summarization, incident response, deployment automation, etc.)
• Partner with practice leads on resource planning, skill mapping, and delivery playbooks
• Run retrospectives to refine scope, improve IP reusability, and validate market fit
• Identify where AI pair programming, intelligent observability, and release automation reduce friction
• Lead experiments that prove measurable gains in developer throughput and quality
• Coach sales and delivery teams on when and how to position DevEx offerings
• Report on solution performance, attach rates, delivery margin, and client outcomes

Benefits

• Competitive compensation with an annual performance-based bonus
• Comprehensive health insurance
• 401(k) with company match
