Requirements
Skills
- 5+ years of experience in a customer-facing technical role (partner engineering, solutions architecture, developer relations, forward-deployed engineering, or similar) working directly with enterprise customers.
- Write and review production-grade code across frontend and backend (Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, etc.) with a proven track record of shipping production-quality software, sample apps, prototypes, and developer tools.
- Strong understanding of API design principles, REST/GraphQL, real-time streaming systems, authentication, and modern AI/agent workflows.
- Hands‑on experience building developer‑facing assets: sample applications, reference implementations, DevEx tools, and high-quality technical documentation/guides.
- Deep, genuine passion for developer experience (DevEx) — you instinctively identify friction and love removing it through better docs, tools, and accessible APIs.
- Ability to work comfortably and professionally with diverse stakeholders (software developers, product managers, technical executives, and business leaders) to define and deliver shared objectives.
- Excellent project management skills with the ability to scope, execute, and drive initiatives autonomously in a fast-paced environment.
- Outstanding verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to translate complex technical topics into clear, engaging documentation and presentations.
- Strong attention to detail and a solution‑oriented mindset that turns customer problems into scalable improvements.
Responsibilities
- Partner directly with Enterprise customers to understand their business needs and rapidly build production‑grade solutions, prototypes, integrations, and accelerators using the X API platform.
- Design, develop, and maintain high‑quality sample applications, starter kits, reference implementations, and code examples for both Enterprise teams and Indie developers to accelerate adoption and showcase best practices.
- Build, enhance, and ship developer experience tools such as SDKs, MCPs, CLIs, Sandbox/Test Environments, and other internal/external tooling that dramatically improves developer productivity and ease of use.
- Research, write, and continuously improve comprehensive how‑to guides, tutorials, cookbook recipes, technical blogs, and educational content — with special emphasis on X API integrations, real‑time data, AI Agents, LLMs, and emerging use cases.
- Obsess over every aspect of developer experience: continuously audit and elevate our documentation, onboarding flows, code samples, and overall accessibility to make X API products the most approachable and powerful in the industry.
- Gather real‑world feedback from customers and the broader developer community, advocate passionately for their needs internally, and collaborate with Product and Engineering teams to influence roadmap and feature prioritization.
- Diagnose complex technical issues, bugs, and edge cases; provide expert‑level troubleshooting, workarounds, and long‑term solutions while turning learnings into public guides and tooling improvements.
- Streamline support processes and create scalable materials that close knowledge gaps and accelerate success for both managed partners and self‑serve developers.
