You will work closely with key members of the Netlify founding team, technical and marketing teams, to help design and execute programs focused on enhancing our global community experience.

• Collaborate with internal teams to align messaging and support overall marketing and product strategies, ensuring a cohesive and consistent voice into the community.

What You’ll Bring:

• Technically adept and well-versed in the developer ecosystem and modern web technologies, frameworks, and development methodologies.
• Demonstrated ability to create and execute talks, posts, open source work, and other materials for developer enablement and advocacy.
• You’re comfortable deep-diving into web technology and can use what you learn to explain developer workflows to a variety of audiences (you can build it, speak to it, and guide others to understand it).
• Exceptional communication skills with the ability to engage and inspire fellow developers.
• Proven ability to produce high-quality content, including video, and manage multiple social media channels effectively.
• Strong organizational skills to plan and execute events and meetups successfully.
• A self-starter with a passion for engaging technical communities.
• To support event facilitation from our San Francisco office, we are seeking candidates based in the Bay Area. 
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and handle multiple tasks simultaneously.
• A collaborative team player with a positive attitude and a creative mindset.
