About the role
- As our Developer Community Manager, you'll be the connective tissue between Cognition and the broader developer ecosystem: running events, cultivating ambassadors, and bringing Devin to universities and developer communities worldwide.
- This isn't a traditional community manager role.
- This role is perfect for someone who loves being at the intersection of engineering and community.
Responsibilities
- Create compelling technical content and resources including tutorials, demo scripts, and workshop materials that help developers understand and adopt Devin
- Manage community platforms and channels, fostering authentic engagement and surfacing high-signal discussions
- Collaborate with product, engineering, and go-to-market teams to align community programs with company priorities and product launches
- You'll own the strategy and execution of our community programs from the ground up, building something that doesn't yet exist at Cognition.
- Build and manage university programs: campus ambassador networks, workshop series, and partnerships with CS departments and student engineering organizations
- Own the community feedback loop: synthesize what developers are saying, surface product insights to engineering, and close the loop with the community
- We are an applied AI lab building end-to-end software agents.
- Building Devin is just the first step-our hardest challenges still lie ahead.
- If you're excited to solve some of the world's biggest problems and build AI that can reason on real-world tasks, apply to join us.
Requirements
- 2+ years of experience in developer relations, community management, technical evangelism, or a related role at a technology company
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into approachable content
Nice to have
- Scale Cognition's developer ambassador program, recruiting, onboarding, and supporting technical advocates who champion Devin in their communities
- Plan and execute developer events including hackathons, meetups, demo days, and conference activations that showcase Devin's capabilities to engineering audiences
Skills
- Comfort operating autonomously in a fast-moving environment where priorities shift and ambiguity is the norm
- A record of exceptional achievements and impact in any domain
- Have built a developer community or ambassador program from scratch and can point to measurable results
- Have a genuine passion for AI-powered developer tools and strong opinions about how they'll change the way software is built
- Are known in developer communities, whether through open source contributions, conference talks, content creation, or community leadership
- Have experience running programs at universities or with early-career developers and understand what resonates with that audience
- Thrive on the autonomy, intensity, and pace of an early-stage startup where your work directly shapes the company's trajectory
- Have a software engineering background and want to channel that technical credibility into a community-facing role with broader impact
Benefits
- Together, they represent our vision for collaborative AI teammates that enable engineers to focus on more interesting problems and empower teams to strive for more ambitious goals.
