• Develop unique demos in conjunction with vendors and partners in the ecosystem
• Host meetups, orchestrate workshops, and speak at conferences and events
• Promote and drive attendance for company-hosted developer events and webinars
• Establish relationships and reach with technology communities (e.g. ESLint, React), organizations (e.g. JSConf, DEV.to) and various user groups and social media (e.g. Discord, Reddit)
• Work closely with the JS/TS team, take part in the technical discussions, and have an impact on the team's decisions
• Occasionally participate in the JS/TS analyzer development sprints
• Partner with community managers, sales engineers, and product marketers to advocate for clean code in diverse forums
• Collaborate with community managers and other advocates to enhance ecosystem engagement
• Leverage social media presence to amplify the brand within the developer community

Qualification you will have

• Computer science or equivalent degree

Why you will love it

• Safe work culture - we value respect, kindness, and the right to fail.
• Flexible hours - you schedule your days in order to be effective at work, while also being able to enjoy life’s important moments.
• Great people - valuing people skills as much as technical skills and strive to keep things friendly and laid back. Still, that does not prevent us to be passionate leaders in our domains.
• Work-life balance - keeping a healthy work-life balance is important. This is why there is a hybrid work policy and some people prefer working some days from home.
• Always keep learning - in an ever-changing industry, learning new skills is a must, and our client is happy to help our team to acquire them.
