Developer Advocate, Community

Location: Remote US

About the role

Yugabyte has redefined the data infrastructure developers use for distributed Postgres applications and multi-agent AI systems. As a Developer Advocate focused on Yugabyte’s rapidly growing community, you will energize the developers building with YugabyteDB, YugabyteDB AMP (Agentic Multitenant Postgres), and Meko, our agent-native data platform that gives multi-agent systems shared memory and knowledge.

You will own community programs end-to-end, including workshops, meetups, hackathons, partner events, and the online spaces where developers ask questions, share what they built, and help each other. Success in this role means more developers showing up, building something real, and coming back. You will work closely with product, engineering, marketing, and the rest of the DevRel team, and you will bring what you hear from the community into the roadmap. Most importantly, you will collaborate with the rest of our Developer Advocacy team to present a unified, global approach to how we work with devs. This is a fun role on a fun team at the most important (and fun) time in our company’s history. Should be fun!
