Our openings span more than one career level. The provided salary depends on many factors, such as work experience and transferable skills, business needs and impact, location, and market demands.
At Render, we’re building the modern cloud platform for developers creating AI-native, full-stack, multi-service applications. Our mission is to eliminate the tradeoff between the power of hyperscalers and the simplicity of developer-friendly platforms—so teams can ship fast, scale reliably, and focus on their product, not infrastructure.
Unlike complex hyperscalers or ephemeral edge/serverless solutions, Render offers a developer-first experience with persistent compute, dynamic autoscaling, built-in orchestration, and observability, allowing teams to launch, scale, and manage real-world applications without writing infrastructure code or managing servers. Whether you're building LLM-powered applications, scalable SaaS products, or async processing pipelines, Render empowers teams to move fast and scale confidently from MVP to millions of users.
Our platform is trusted by over 7 million developers worldwide and continues to grow rapidly. In February 2026, we raised an additional $100M in Series C financing, bringing our total funding to $260M, to accelerate our vision of making cloud infrastructure both powerful and intuitive—designed for the speed of modern AI development.
We’re a diverse and talented team that values craft, velocity, and user experience. If you’re excited to help shape the future of the intelligent cloud and empower developers everywhere, we’d love to hear from you.
Applying to Render
We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn. Through reasoned discussions and continuous feedback, we strive to improve both individually and collectively. We foster an environment of mutual trust and respect, empowering effective debate to achieve the best outcomes for our customers and team.
We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed.
Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.
About the Role
Render is looking for a Staff Developer Relations Engineer to grow usage and word of mouth for Render among developers building full-stack and AI applications. You'll be Render's technical face on stage, in workshops, at meetups, and in the developer and AI ecosystems where our users build.
DX at Render has two halves. DX Engineering builds and maintains Render's tutorials, sample apps, templates, and video library. DevRel takes Render to developers in person and through the communities and partners they trust, then brings what it hears back into the product. You'll set the technical bar and direction for DevRel, and you'll be the person developers and partners go to for a deep, candid answer about running AI workloads on Render.
You'll build the demos and workshop material behind your own talks. When something you build deserves a long life, DX Engineering turns it into a maintained example or template.
This is a remote role within the US, with the option to work out of our headquarters in San Francisco. Expect regular travel for conferences and events.
What You'll Do
Represent Render at conferences, meetups, hackathons, podcasts, and livestreams, with talks and live demos on building and running AI agents and full-stack apps.
Design and run hands-on workshops and hackathons, from the curriculum to the technical setup behind them.
Set DevRel's technical direction: pick the communities, ecosystems, and events worth investing in, and define what good looks like for talks, workshops, and demos.
Be the technical counterpart for ecosystem partners such as AI frameworks, agent tooling, and open source projects: joint workshops, co-hosted events, and the integrations worth building together.
Go deep in technical communities on GitHub, X, Discord, Reddit, and Hacker News. Answer hard questions, debug real deployments, and show up where Render has a credible voice.
Run the developer feedback loop. Turn what you hear in the field into clear, prioritized input for Product and Engineering, and follow it through until it ships.
Help Render's highest-potential developers and startups go further on the platform through technical deep dives and architecture reviews, and turn them into champions who talk about Render in their own communities.
Raise the bar for the DevRel team through talk reviews, demo reviews, and your own work.
Track impact through activation from events and workshops, community engagement, partner-driven adoption, and the product changes you drove.
What We're Looking For
8+ years in developer relations, solutions engineering, or software engineering, including at least 3 years in a developer-facing role at a developer tools, cloud, or infrastructure company.
A track record on stage: talks at recognized developer conferences, and workshops you designed and ran yourself.
Experience setting direction for a developer relations program: choosing where to invest, measuring what worked, and changing course.
Hands-on fluency with AI agents: tool calling, MCP servers, LLM APIs, and agent frameworks. You can build a working agent app live and explain what it needs to run in production, such as long-running tasks, sandboxed code execution, and retries. The field is young, so we look at what you've done recently. We don't expect years of experience in it.
The engineering depth to be credible with senior engineers. You can deploy a multi-service app, read logs, trace a failed deploy, and find the root cause in front of an audience.
Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure: containers and Docker, networking basics, CI/CD, environment configuration, and infrastructure as code.
You use coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor every day and keep up with the agent ecosystem as it changes.
Examples of developer feedback you turned into product changes: what you heard, the case you made, and what shipped.
Excellent spoken and written communication. You can hold a room of engineers and explain a complex system clearly.
Nice-to-Haves
Existing relationships in AI framework, agent tooling, or open source communities.
An existing developer audience through talks, livestreams, a newsletter, or social.
Experience starting or growing in-person developer meetups.
Experience with durable workflows, background job systems, or sandboxed code execution.
You've used Render before, professionally or on side projects.
Projects You Might Work On
A workshop on deploying production agents with Render Workflows, run at a major AI conference and then at our own meetups.
A hackathon co-hosted with an AI framework partner, including the starter kit and the technical support on the day.
The talk track for an upcoming launch, delivered by you and the rest of DevRel.
A recurring field report for Product on where developers get stuck running agents on Render.
If this role excites you but you don’t meet every single requirement, we’d still love to hear from you—your unique experience might be just what we need.
Benefits
4 weeks of paid vacation.
14 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all parents to bond with a newly born, adopted, or fostered child. We will also work with you to create a supportive plan of return.
Long-term disability, life insurance, and 401K plans.
100% employer-paid medical coverage and 99% employer-paid dental and vision coverage for you and a dependent. FSAs and HSAs are available as well.
Monthly lifestyle stipend for wellness, mental health and therapy, hobbies, etc.
Monthly cell phone and internet subsidy.
Commuter benefits for Renders in the Bay Area, and home office stipends for remote Renders.
Continuous learning benefits & related support.
This position is generally not eligible for new visa sponsorship. At Render's discretion, the business may sponsor existing visa transfers. Applicants who require sponsorship must receive business authorization.
Render is an equal-opportunity employer. We know that employing a team rich in diverse thoughts, experiences, and opinions allows our employees, product, and community to flourish. We make all employment decisions including hiring, evaluation, termination, promotional, and training opportunities, without regard to race, religion, color, sex, age, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, physical handicap, mental disability, medical condition, disability, gender or identity or expression, pregnancy or pregnancy-related condition, marital status, height and/or weight.
We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform essential job functions, and to receive other benefits and privileges of employment. Please contact us to request accommodation.
We encourage all who are interested to apply. We can't wait to hear from you!

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in developer relations manager jobs.
- Proven experience building or managing technical communities and developer programs
- Ability to create technical content such as tutorials, documentation, and sample code

- Cross-functional collaboration experience with product, engineering, and marketing teams
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or a related technical field
Tips for Your Developer Relations Manager Job Search
Quantify your developer community impact
Hiring managers want specifics: how many developers attended your events, how much your documentation reduced support tickets, or how your tutorials grew SDK adoption. Replace vague phrases like 'built community' with numbers tied to outcomes your team cared about.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists developer relations manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Tailor your resume to the company's platform
A DevRel manager at a payments API company needs different proof points than one at a machine learning platform. Reframe your resume for each application to highlight experience with the relevant tech stack, developer persona, and community type the company actually serves.
Filter openings by reported engineering culture
DevRel roles at developer-first companies expect you to ship content and code alongside engineers. Roles at enterprise vendors often prioritize field enablement and partner programs. Reading job descriptions carefully for phrases like 'hands-on coding' versus 'GTM alignment' tells you which culture you're stepping into.
Build a public portfolio before the interview
Most DevRel hiring panels will search for your technical writing, talks, or open source contributions before the first call. A GitHub profile with sample tutorials, a speaker page with recorded talks, or a newsletter archive gives reviewers something concrete to evaluate your voice and depth.
Prepare a developer journey narrative for interviews
Interviewers for developer relations manager roles consistently ask how you'd onboard a developer from signup to first successful API call. Walking through a specific past example, including what friction you found and how you addressed it, outperforms abstract answers about developer experience strategy.
Developer Relations Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most developer relations managers?
The companies hiring the most developer relations managers right now include Google, Nintendo, and Intel Corporation, with the largest share of openings in California, Washington, and Arizona, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring activity tends to be highest at companies that have recently launched or expanded a public API or developer platform.
How many developer relations manager jobs are remote?
About 76% of developer relations manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, making it one of the more remote-accessible roles in technical go-to-market functions. Content-focused and community-management sub-areas of the role tend to be the most remote-friendly, while positions tied to conference programs or partner enablement sometimes require more in-person presence.
How do you become a developer relations manager?
Most developer relations managers come from software engineering, technical writing, or developer advocacy backgrounds. The clearest path is to start contributing publicly through blog posts, conference talks, or open source projects, then move into a developer advocate or developer educator role. From there, demonstrating cross-functional impact on product adoption or community growth is what typically leads to a manager title.
Can you get a developer relations manager job with little or no experience?
Breaking in with limited experience is possible if you can show public proof of work. A portfolio of technical tutorials, a recorded conference talk, or a community you've grown on your own, even informally, carries real weight in DevRel hiring. Many companies hire at the associate level from developer advocacy or technical marketing backgrounds, then promote from within into manager roles.
What does the developer relations manager interview process look like?
Interviews for developer relations manager roles typically run three to four rounds. Early stages are usually a recruiter screen and a hiring manager conversation focused on your community and content background. Middle rounds often include a technical writing or developer journey exercise. Final rounds commonly involve a presentation to a cross-functional panel covering your strategy for growing a developer ecosystem, sometimes using the company's own product as the subject.
Where can I find and apply to developer relations manager jobs?
