Sr. Developer Advocate - Hacker News
About the Job
2023 has been an exciting year for Doppler. So far we have helped over 30,000 startups and enterprises manage their secrets at scale, accelerated our hiring alongside going-to-market, and raised our $20M Series A from CRV. Throughout this year and looking into 2024, we’re getting far more ambitious by setting even higher product, growth, sales, and headcount goals!
Doppler's mission is to make it easy and secure for developers of every experience level and teams of any size to manage their app configuration and secrets. But hasn't this been done?
Developers tend to be either struggling with the manual management of .env files, or wrestling with an overly complex secrets manager that's not built for software development. Doppler is changing that by making app configuration and secrets management easy, intuitive, and scalable. It's the SecretOps platform built by developers for developers.
Our team is entrepreneurial, with a bias for action. We never back down from a spirited debate and believe we are all responsible for exploring the hard questions. We value self-awareness and meaningful impact. We are open to unconventional approaches and have learned not to judge a book by its cover. Your time is your most valuable resource, so you set your hours. We use Slack to communicate and default to very few meetings. We aim to document everything. We also recommend you invest your time in 10% compounding time.
As a Senior Developer Advocate, you’ll lead Doppler’s efforts for our self-serve product offering. You will be responsible for raising awareness among startup CTOs and senior engineers by producing highly engaging content on Hacker News.
