About the Job

Born at Y Combinator alongside Airbnb, Dropbox, and DoorDash, DevCycle is a feature management platform that helps modern engineering teams improve their software development process and ship features faster with confidence.

DevCycle has a new vision of feature management that goes beyond risk reduction and enables dev teams to maximize product impact. It’s built for dev teams tired of the stress, complexity, and risk of releasing new code.

Join the team responsible for the platform chosen by high-growth start-ups to Fortune 500 companies worldwide. We're designing the future of software development. Learn more about DevCycle here.

Your role as a Developer Evangelist is to build awareness of DevCycle in the developer community. You will work with internal and external stakeholders to identify opportunities to engage with developer and DevOps professionals authentically. As the Developer Evangelist, you will create and deliver presentations and webinars, join industry podcasts, and write technical content that is engaging, valuable, and relatable to the community. In addition, you will build relationships with key developers and influencers in the developer community that can further amplify the brand. 

Location: This is a full-time role, optimally hybrid based in Toronto. We’re open to remote within Canada or the continental U.S. for the right candidate.
