Developer Advocate

The opportunity

We're looking for a Developer Advocate who is a trusted presence in developer communities.

This role is about showing up where developers already spend time, contributing real value, and building long-term trust.

If people already listen to you because you're smart, practical, and credible, this role may be a great fit.

Content creation and editorial

• Create content that developers and analysts actually want: practical tutorials, clear explanations, honest opinions, and demos grounded in real use cases as blog posts, videos, talks, and whatever formats fit the moment
• Act as an editor and curator for internal engineers, guest contributors, marketing colleagues and other advocates: validate technical claims, test code snippets, and edit drafts to ensure high editorial & technical standards
• Produce video content (screencasts, shorts, explainers) that expands Metabase's educational reach and complements written tutorials
• Build and maintain demo projects, sample workflows, and integrations that showcase Metabase's capabilities in practical, real-world scenarios

Community building

• Develop and execute plans to build, enable, and nurture Metabase's developer community — through events, meetups, livestreams, courses, social media, partnerships, and whatever formats fit the moment
• Show up and be genuinely helpful in the places developers spend time — Slack communities, forums, Reddit, Discord, YouTube, Twitch, social platforms, and wherever the conversation is actually happening
• Build real relationships with developers, community leaders, contributors, and power users
• Represent Metabase at events, conferences, and meetups as a credible practitioner, not a booth rep

Feedback and measurement

• Bring what you're hearing back to the people building the product: friction points, workarounds, complaints, praise, and feature requests that only surface in honest community conversations
• Represent the community's needs internally — synthesizing feedback and sharing learnings with engineering, product, and marketing teams in a way that's actionable, not just anecdotal
• Track and monitor community health and content performance metrics, assess how well initiatives are achieving their goals, and adjust effort accordingly
• You've worked with data: you're comfortable with SQL, databases, metrics, and analytics workflows, and you can talk about them in a way that earns respect from working developers and analysts
