Developer Relations Engineer

Summary

Join Speakeasy, a fast-growing startup, as their first dedicated Developer Relations Engineer. You will be responsible for increasing the visibility and adoption of Speakeasy's APIs and SDKs. This role requires a builder mindset, strong technical skills, and excellent communication abilities. You will create demos, guides, and content to educate developers, engage with the community on various platforms, and gather feedback to shape the product roadmap. The ideal candidate is a self-starter, comfortable working independently, and passionate about improving developer experience. Speakeasy offers a generous equity package, competitive pay, and comprehensive benefits.

Requirements

• Self-starter — you can operate independently with minimal context and figure things out fast
• Builder mindset — you ship things (demos, tools, bots, integrations) that others want to copy
• Strong grasp of developer tooling, APIs, SDK generation, or platform engineering
• High energy and bias toward action — you’ll be a visible and vocal part of our growth story
• Experience creating technical content (videos, blog posts, tutorials, threads)
• Comfortable representing us on social — from Twitter to niche Discord servers
• Natural networker — you can build relationships with developers, DevRels, and platform teams
• Hungry to play a key role in a fast-growing startup with high agency and little red tape
• Focused on impact and company growth, not vanity metrics

Responsibilities

• Make our APIs + SDKs discoverable, lovable, and wildly easy to adopt
• Build demos, guides, and example apps that shorten the time-to-first-wow for developers
• Grow awareness of Speakeasy in the broader dev ecosystem through code, content, and community
• Be the feedback loop between real-world developers and our product — bring signal, not noise
• Own Speakeasy’s presence on Twitter, Reddit, GitHub, Discord, StackOverflow, and other key dev spaces
• Represent Speakeasy at events, in DMs, and everywhere devs hang out
• Help shape our narrative in a highly technical space (API infra, SDKs, DevEx)

Benefits

• Generous equity
• Competitive pay
• 100% employer-covered medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) plan
• Unlimited PTO
• Quarterly off-sites in SF and London (and maybe other locations!)
• Work with a fun, collaborative, ambitious team
