Senior Developer Advocate

VictoriaMetrics

Role Description We are hiring a Senior Developer Advocate, North America to be the technical face of VictoriaMetrics in the NA observability community — on HackerNews, in CNCF working groups, on KubeCon and other conference stages, and in the Slack and Discord channels where SREs and platform teams make solution decisions. This is a hands-on, technically credible role: you will ship code, write deep technical content, speak at conferences, and influence our product roadmap with what you hear from the community. You will work directly with our founders, engineering team, dev rel and marketing team, and you will have meaningful autonomy to shape how VictoriaMetrics shows up in the North American developer community. What You Will Do - Technical content and code (≈40%) - Write deep-dive technical blog posts - Build and maintain reference architectures, demo repositories, and working examples on GitHub. - Contribute small fixes, docs PRs, and integration improvements to VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaTraces, VictoriaLogs, and our overall stack. - Produce audio-visual content alongside your colleagues; screencasts, conference recordings, podcast appearances, technical interviews. - Community engagement and advocacy (≈30%) - Maintain a credible, non-promotional presence on HackerNews, Reddit (r/devops, r/sre, r/kubernetes, r/grafana), CNCF Slack, the Prometheus and Grafana community channels, X/LinkedIn, and the Slack/Discord communities where observability conversations happen. - Answer technical questions, weigh in substantively on comparison threads, and help users debug real problems. - Partner with our Marketing Manager to develop online spaces, social presence, and partner programs that encourage peer support around our open-source projects. - Speaking and events (≈20%) - Submit CFPs to and speak at North American conferences and meetups per year. - Run online workshops, office hours, technical training, and developer-day style events. - Represent VictoriaMetrics on podcasts, panels, and industry roundtables. - Feedback loop and product influence (≈10%) - Synthesize community signal into concrete, actionable input for engineering and product leadership. - Advocate internally for feature, documentation, and DX improvements based on what you hear from users. - Coordinate with our cross functional leads and counterparts in marketing for alignment and cohesion. Qualifications - 5+ years in a developer-facing role — developer advocacy, evangelism, developer experience, or hands-on SRE / observability engineering with substantial public output. - Production experience with at least two of: Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, Thanos, Cortex, Mimir, InfluxDB, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Loki, or Tempo. - Comfortable reading and writing Go. You should be able to file substantive issues against VictoriaMetrics, read the source to answer your own questions, and contribute small PRs. - Fluency with PromQL and/or MetricsQL — you can debug a slow query, not just write one. - Hands-on Kubernetes experience: Helm charts, operators, kubectl, the realities of running stateful workloads in production. - Demonstrable public footprint: personal blog, conference talks, OSS contributions, or a substantial GitHub presence. - Excellent written and verbal communication. Comfortable presenting to a room of skeptical engineers. - Experience speaking at technical conferences; ideally CNCF or observability-focused (KubeCon, SREcon, and regional CNCF meetups). Preferred Qualifications - Experience with VictoriaMetrics or similar open source monitoring and observability tools. - Previous experience in a user/customer-facing role. What We Offer - Competitive salary benchmarked against North American market data. - Fully remote work, flexible hours, and a small, senior team that respects async work. - Support for your professional and personal growth: you will work directly with our founders, marketing team, and our design and engineering teams; your community feedback shapes the roadmap. - Autonomy and active support for initiative you bring: you decide where to spend your time within the strategic priorities we set together. - A platform with 1B+ downloads and Fortune 500 customers — the audience is already there. - The chance to make a real impact on our technology and user community. Interview Process - Introductory Video Call - Interview with hiring manager & Head of DevRel - Interview with Chief Marketing Leader - Interview / technical interview with Founders & team members - Offer: Embark on your journey with VictoriaMetrics

Full TimeRemoteTeam 29,000Since 2004

Company Description It all started when engineer Fred Luddy wrote code that automated a tedious task for his coworker, Phyllis. She cried tears of joy.

Today, ServiceNow is the AI control tower for business reinvention. Our ServiceNow AI platform brings together any AI, any data, and any workflow- helping 85% of the Fortune 500® work smarter, faster, and better.

Job Description Moveworks is the Agentic AI Assistant platform that empowers the entire workforce. Our platform enables employees to converse with all of their business systems through natural language to quickly find answers and automate tasks. Powered by the world's most advanced LLMs, our proprietary models, and a sophisticated Agentic AI platform, we're transforming how work gets done by allowing AI to take initiative, streamline complex workflows, and continuously learn and adapt. In December 2025, Moveworks was acquired by ServiceNow, marking a pivotal milestone in our journey to create a single front door to work for all business systems. By combining ServiceNow's leading workflow automation with Moveworks' Reasoning Engine and natural language capabilities, we deliver the AI platform for every person and every workflow. Built to go beyond basic summaries to deliver meaningful business impact. Together, our AI acts across enterprise systems to turn conversations into completed work. By joining our team, you'll be at the forefront of the AI transformation, backed by the global scale of ServiceNow and the agility of a high-growth company. We are looking for world-class talent to help us extend agentic AI to every employee across every corner of the business. As a Developer Advocate, you will be the bridge between our Agent Studio-the premier platform for building enterprise AI agents-and the developer community, including both customers and prospects. Your mission is to inspire, educate, and empower developers to build, deploy, and scale AI agents that turn conversations into completed work. You will be the public face of Moveworks for technical personas, acting as a strategist, content creator, and community leader. What You'll Do Educate and Empower - High-Quality Content: Create technical content that moves the needle, including blog posts, tutorials, videos, and sample projects (including code snippets and POVs on emerging tech like Model Context Protocol - MCP). - Hands-on Guidance: Provide direct support through office hours and personal outreach to help developers overcome technical hurdles. - Documentation & Hub: Ensure our Developer Hub and documentation are world-class, including "Quickstart" guides and supporting video walkthroughs. Build and Foster Community - Community Cultivation: Manage relationships across the Moveworks Community and broader forums (Reddit, X, Discord). - Motion Shift: Transition the Agent Studio forum from a troubleshooting-heavy space to one focused on User Generated Content (UGC), shared wins, and thought leadership. - Ambassador Program: Collaborate on the Moveworks AI Ambassador program to recognize and reward top contributors. Drive Developer Engagement - Event Leadership: Play a leading role in organizing and speaking at Hackathons (AI Agent Hackathon, Dev Day, and Community Hackathon). - Educational Initiatives: Partner with the Academy team on certification paths and "Live ILT" (Instructor-Led Training) to showcase advanced implementation scenarios. - Lifecycle Engagement: Optimize the developer journey via onboarding/re-engagement email series and the Developer Newsletter. Advocate Internally - Feedback Loop: Collect and synthesize actionable feedback from the field to provide to the Product and Engineering teams for continuous improvement. - PMM Partnership: Collaborate with Product Marketing to ensure messaging and resources align with developer needs. Qualifications To be successful in this role you have: - Highly experienced individual possessing typically 15+ of relevant experience. - Technical Authority: You have strong familiarity with APIs, authentication, and integrations. You are comfortable writing code and exploring new architectural patterns. - AI-First Mindset: You are "AI ready" and have integrated AI into your daily workflow. You leverage tools like Claude Code to accelerate development and can speak authentically to how AI is transforming the developer experience. - Communication Excellence: You are a natural on stage and on camera. You can translate complex technical concepts into compelling narratives for webinars, keynotes, and technical blogs. - Clear & Enthusiastic Education Skills. Your enthusiasm is infectious when talking about technologies & you are a very clear communicator when it comes to teaching developers about new technology concepts - Community Empathy: You have experience engaging with developers on platforms like X, Reddit, or Discord and understand what makes a developer ecosystem thrive. - Content Strategy: You don't just "post"; you understand how to use different channels (YouTube Shorts vs. Whitepapers) to reach developers at different stages of their journey. - Bias for Action: You are comfortable being public-facing and "scrappy," willing to build a demo or record a snippet to solve a user problem in real-time.
