About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to join our Developer Relations team and help developers everywhere build better APIs, faster. You'll serve as a trusted technical voice for Postman by creating compelling content, building community, and championing developer needs back into the product.

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role. You won't just talk about Postman, you'll be hands-on with APIs, AI agents, and emerging protocols like MCP, translating complex workflows into accessible, inspiring content that reaches millions of developers.

What You'll Do

Create technical content at scale: Write tutorials, blog posts, videos, sample projects, and livestreams that demonstrate API best practices using Postman and adjacent tools.

Represent Postman publicly: Speak at conferences, meetups, podcasts, and webinars. Be a recognizable and credible technical voice in the API and developer tooling ecosystem.

Build and nurture community: Engage with developers across forums, Discord, GitHub, social media, and in-person events. Lead or support the global Agents & APIs Meetup program and similar community initiatives.

Champion the developer experience: Gather feedback from developers and translate it into actionable insights for Product and Engineering teams. Be the voice of the developer internally.

Drive adoption of new capabilities: Create launch content and enablement materials for features like Agent Mode, API Catalog, MCP integration, and AI-native API testing.

Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with Product Marketing, Sales Engineering, and Education teams to ensure consistent, technically credible messaging across all touchpoints.

Grow Postman's reach: Develop strategies to grow engagement on YouTube, Substack, the Postman blog, and social channels through data-driven content optimization.

About You

  • 5+ years of professional software development experience, with strong API (REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSockets) and coding (Python, Typescript) development skills
  • 3+ years in a developer advocacy, developer relations, or developer education role
  • Proven ability to stand up, run, and scale in-person meetups, including recruiting speakers, working with Partners and event management
  • A portfolio of published technical content (blog posts, conference talks, videos, open-source projects, or tutorials)
  • Hands-on experience with Postman or similar API development platforms
  • Eagerness to get hands on with code, and work closely with engineering teams
  • Strong understanding of modern development workflows: CI/CD, testing, version control, and cloud-native architectures
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to make complex topics accessible and engaging
  • Comfort with being on camera, on stage, and in front of a microphone. Strong experience in Youtube and video content is a plus
  • Self-directed, able to prioritize across content, community, and product feedback workstreams with minimal oversight

Compensation

The reasonably estimated base salary for this role ranges from $210,000 to $230,000, plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidates skills, qualifications, and experience.
