About the role As a Developer Relations Engineer your focus will be technical content, demos, and distribution. Your work will help developers and researchers discover AC2, understand what they can build, and put it to work. You’ll work directly with researchers and engineers, run experiments yourself, and turn the results into useful technical resources. You’ll define our DevRel strategy and standards, with the opportunity to hire and lead a team as the function grows. What you will do • Build runnable demos and cookbooks. Show developers how to train a decision model, evaluate a router, or deploy a trained checkpoint. Include code, sample data, expected results, and explanations that make each example reproducible. • Explain our technical work. Partner with researchers to publish technical articles, walkthrough videos, and interactive demos. Explain the methods, results, tradeoffs, and limitations so developers can judge where an approach is useful. • Own distribution. Get technical work in front of relevant developers through X, GitHub, developer communities, and collaborations. Experiment with topics and formats, and use the response to improve what we create and where we share it. • Educate developers. Run workshops, livestreams, and office hours. Speak at relevant events, and build a tutorial series spanning evaluation, training, and deployment. • Help developers succeed with AC2. Help new organizations get set up, run their first evaluation and training job, and interpret the results. Turn questions and recurring problems into resources other developers can use. • Improve the developer experience. Improve quickstarts and troubleshooting guides. Bring specific, reproducible problems to engineering and help prioritize improvements. What you bring • A strong engineering background. You can independently build, test, and debug useful demos and example applications. • Hands-on experience fine-tuning and evaluating language models. You can explain your training setup, evaluation design, and what you learned from the results. • A track record of clear technical writing. You have published articles, tutorials, documentation, or other work that helps developers understand and apply technical concepts. • Experience getting technical work in front of developers, and an interest in experimenting with new ways to reach and teach them. • You listen closely, welcome technical feedback, acknowledge uncertainty, and enjoy helping developers work through problems. • The judgment and initiative to define priorities, take projects from idea to publication, and build a function that can grow beyond your own work. Strong candidates also have • An established audience among AI developers, particularly on X / Twitter. • Previous experience as a founder or at an early-stage startup.
