Glean is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to help engineers build customer-facing AI chatbots, agents, and search applications by working closely with customers to implement Glean’s APIs and SDKs, and translating those real-world learnings into best practices for the broader AI engineering community.
Requirements
- You should also have hands-on experience as an engineer.
- Well connected to the AI engineering ecosystem with a strong instinct for where the community is headed, and the ability to ensure that what we’re building and sharing resonates with real-world customers working with data and AI.
- Deep insight into how engineers think and work—skilled at reaching them through the right channels, fostering genuine product affinity, and designing education programs that drive real adoption.
- Strong technical skills. You can code your own demos, evaluate code quality, and provide actionable technical feedback.
- Technically credible. You’re able to grasp complex concepts quickly and explain them clearly to a range of audiences, from individual engineers to enterprise leaders.
- Deep passion for AI, developer tools, and the new landscape of agent development.
Responsibilities
- Develop and lead the strategy to grow a vibrant community of engineers building on Glean whether through our APIs and SDKs or popular frameworks like OpenAI, Google ADK, LangChain, and more.
- Embed deeply in the AI engineering ecosystem: build relationships, share our perspective on agent interoperability, and help drive forward an open, connected approach to agent development.
- Bring our perspective and technology into the wider AI community through compelling real-world demos, conference talks, meetups, forums, and customer hackathons.
- Cultivate strong relationships with engineers, technical leaders, and power users, turning their feedback into product insights and strengthening trust and engagement with the Glean platform.
- Partner with product, engineering and research teams—translating developer and customer feedback into platform roadmaps, prioritizing features, and championing “voice of the customer” internally.
- Support engineers in onboarding to Glean’s APIs and SDKs by creating high-quality resources: code samples, documentation, tutorials, how-to guides, and blog posts that empower them to build agents grounded in enterprise data.
Other
- 4+ years of experience in developer relations, with a strong track record of building developer communities from the ground up.
- Empathetic to the engineering experience, with a strategic mindset. You understand how engagement translates into impact and adoption.
- Exceptional communicator and storyteller. You bring clarity to complexity and make technical ideas feel exciting, relevant, and actionable.
- Collaborative and influential. You work well across marketing, engineering, and product, helping shape roadmaps based on our customers and the wider community.
