About us
Gimlet is building the first multi-silicon neocloud designed for fast, efficient AI inference. We combine large-scale compute infrastructure with an execution platform that partitions AI workloads and maps each stage to the hardware best suited to run it. We work with foundation labs, hyperscalers, and AI-native companies, giving our team access to technical problems spanning frontier models, production infrastructure, and emerging hardware.
About The Role
Gimlet Labs is seeking an AI Developer Advocate to help developers discover, evaluate, and successfully build on our AI inference platform. You’ll sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and community. You’ll create technically credible demos and educational content, engage directly with AI builders, and turn their feedback into improvements across our APIs, SDKs, documentation, and product experience. This is a hands-on technical role for someone who enjoys building in public, explaining complex systems clearly, and helping developers move from their first API call to reliable production deployments. Developer advocacy is not simply promotion. The role succeeds when developers trust our technical guidance, enjoy building with the platform, and see their needs reflected in the product. You should be equally comfortable writing code, teaching a technical concept, talking with a developer who is stuck, and explaining to an internal team why a particular piece of developer friction matters.
What Success Looks Like
In the first 6 months, you will:
- Identify the best channels for Gimlet’s developer outreach and build initial presence
- Build trusted relationships within relevant AI developer communities
- Ship useful examples and educational content that developers actively adopt
- Establish a reliable feedback loop between developers and the product team
- Set an objective for developer experience on our upcoming developer cloud offering
You may be a good fit if you have
- Evidence of technical communication, including articles, talks, videos, documentation, open-source projects, or sample applications
- Strong empathy for developers and an instinct for recognizing friction in APIs, documentation, and tooling
- The ability to explain technical subjects clearly to audiences with different levels of expertise
- Comfort engaging publicly and representing a technical product
- The ability to operate independently in a fast-moving environment
- Hands-on experience building applications with LLM or multimodal-model APIs
- A practical understanding of AI inference concepts such as latency, throughput, context length, batching, quantization, model routing, and cost
- Professional software development experience, ideally with Python or TypeScript
Strong candidates may also have
- Experience with open-weight models and serving frameworks such as vLLM, SGLang, or TensorRT-LLM
- Familiarity with agent frameworks, retrieval systems, evaluations, observability, and fine-tuning
- Experience running workshops, hackathons, developer programs, or technical communities
- Contributions to open-source AI projects
- Experience working in developer relations, developer experience, solutions engineering, or developer education
- Familiarity with GPU infrastructure and production ML systems
Why join now?
Gimlet is expanding from its core technology into a production neocloud spanning new hardware, customers, and data centers.
- Solve hard problems
- Own meaningful work
- Build for production
- Help define what’s next
Agency Policy:
Gimlet Labs does not accept unsolicited resumes from recruitment agencies or search firms. Any unsolicited resumes submitted without a signed agreement will be considered the property of Gimlet Labs, and no fees will be paid.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in developer relations engineer jobs.
- Experience building or maintaining sample apps, SDKs, or API documentation for developer audiences
- Strong public communication skills across written content, video tutorials, or conference talks
- Proficiency in at least one programming language such as Python, JavaScript, or Java

- Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related technical field
Tips for Your Developer Relations Engineer Job Search
Showcase public-facing technical work
Your GitHub repos, conference talk recordings, and published tutorials carry more weight than a resume bullet ever could. Recruiters for developer relations engineer roles actively check your online presence, so link to your best public work directly in your application materials.
Tailor your resume to the platform
A developer relations engineer role at a database company needs different emphasis than one at a mobile SDK startup. Mirror the tech stack and community language in the job description, and call out specific platforms like Discord, Slack communities, or Stack Overflow where you've built developer engagement.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists developer relations engineer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter by product stage before applying
Developer relations at a seed-stage startup usually means building a community from scratch, while a Series C company wants someone to scale an existing program. Read the job description for signals like 'define our developer strategy' versus 'grow our existing developer base' to match your experience to the right environment.
Prepare a live demo or code sample
Most developer relations engineer interviews include a technical presentation or live coding segment. Come ready to walk through a short demo, explain a code sample you wrote, or teach a concept as if you're presenting at a developer meetup. Practicing your delivery out loud matters as much as the technical content.
Negotiate for conference and travel budget
Developer relations roles often include in-person events as a core responsibility. When discussing compensation, ask specifically about the conference budget, travel policy, and whether speaking engagements during work hours count toward your time. These details rarely appear in the offer letter without you asking.
Developer Relations Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most developer relations engineers?
The companies hiring the most developer relations engineers right now include NVIDIA, Google, and BridgePoint Associates, with the largest share of openings in California, Washington, and Arizona, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Cloud platforms, API-first startups, and enterprise developer tool companies tend to post the most consistent volume.
How many developer relations engineer jobs are remote?
About 53% of developer relations engineer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how distributed developer communities are. Roles focused on written content, documentation, and online community management tend to be the most remote-friendly, while positions requiring frequent conference appearances or in-person developer events lean toward hybrid or on-site expectations.
How do you become a developer relations engineer?
Start by building a public portfolio of technical content, whether that's blog posts, open-source contributions, YouTube tutorials, or conference talks at local meetups. Develop fluency in at least one programming language and practice explaining technical concepts clearly to mixed audiences. Many developers transition into the role after contributing consistently to a company's community or documentation as an external advocate first.
Can you get a developer relations engineer job with little experience?
Yes, especially if you can demonstrate community involvement and a body of public technical work. Hiring managers weight real evidence, such as a GitHub profile with active contributions, a published tutorial series, or a recorded conference talk, over years on a resume. Applying to companies whose developer community you already participate in gives you a concrete and specific reason for your interest that generic applicants can't match.
What does the developer relations engineer interview process look like?
Most processes include an initial recruiter screen, a technical conversation to assess your coding and API knowledge, and a content or presentation round where you deliver a short demo or tutorial as if teaching developers. Some companies add a community strategy exercise asking how you'd approach growing or supporting a developer ecosystem. Final rounds typically involve a panel with engineers, product managers, and marketing stakeholders.
