Developer Relations Evangelist

About the role

The Developer Relations Evangelist with a focus on community will be the connective tissue between AssemblyAI and the developer ecosystem building with voice AI. They will maintain a strong presence in SF while also being on the road, sponsoring meetups, live demoing the API, and proselytizing the product directly to developers in the field.

Responsibilities

• Own the AssemblyAI developer community
• Build, grow, and nurture our developer community across Reddit, social channels, and in-person touchpoints
• Maintain a strong presence in SF while being on the road
• Monitor competitor and category mentions, jump into relevant conversations, and surface insights back to product and marketing
• Co-create demos, tutorials, and short-form videos with creators and partners, with a particular focus on our Voice Agent API
• Live demo our realtime APIs in the field
• Contribute to launches and campaigns
• Partner with product marketing to amplify launches with creator content, community activations, and developer-first storytelling
• Build relationships with adjacent ecosystem partners (LLM providers, voice frameworks, AI dev tool companies) to unlock co-marketing and collab content

Requirements

• 2–3+ years of experience in developer relations, developer evangelism, developer marketing, technical community management, or a closely related role at a developer-first or API company
• A genuinely technical foundation — you can build a working demo with an API, debug a snippet on stage, and have credible conversations with engineers and AI builders
• Prior hands-on engineering experience is a plus
• A demonstrated track record of growing a developer community or creator network: real numbers, real programs, real outputs you can point to
• Strong content instincts — you can write a tutorial, edit a demo video, post a thread that lands, and tell when a piece of content will actually move the needle vs. die quietly
• Comfort and enthusiasm being in front of people — speaking at meetups, hosting events, going to other people’s events, live demoing in front of a room, building relationships in real life
