Developer Relations Lead
Role Overview
We're looking for a Developer Relations Lead to grow the community of developers building on Hubble's satellite and terrestrial connectivity platform. Hubble lets standard Bluetooth Low Energy devices talk to a global network, both terrestrial and direct-to-satellite, without cellular modems, SIM cards, or GPS. This role owns that outcome.
Responsibilities
Own Hubble's developer relations strategy end to end: content, community, events, and advocacy across the terrestrial network, satellite network, and Device SDK
Create technical content with working code at the center. Tutorials, integration guides, sample projects, demo videos, and blog posts that take a developer from curiosity to a shipped device
Own the Hubble devkit: define what's in the sample kit we hand new developers (hardware, preloaded firmware, quick-start guide, first-project walkthrough) and keep refining it until a new dev gets from unboxing to first message on the network in one sitting
Represent Hubble at developer events: speak at embedded, IoT, and connectivity conferences, run workshops and live demos, organize Hubble meetups and hackathons
Make Hubble work in agent-driven workflows. Most developers now start integrations through coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor), so keep our content agent-readable: llms.txt, canonical examples agents can copy correctly, and rules/skills files for popular agents. Regularly test whether a coding agent can complete a Hubble integration from our docs alone, and flag product-surface gaps to Product
Grow Hubble's developer community across GitHub, Discords, and social channels. Be the person developers ping when they're stuck, and make our most engaged users visible and celebrated
Hire and manage technical writer contractors while defining what a DevRel team looks like
Set and track the metrics that ladder up to engagement. Own content reach, community growth, developer contributions and spotlights, devkit components, and contribute developer funnel feedback to Product
Channel developer feedback into the product. Gather friction points, feature requests, and integration patterns from the community and hand them to Product as structured, actionable input
Serve as Hubble's developer-facing liaison to silicon and ecosystem partners: chipset/module vendors and RTOS platforms
Support product launches by producing the developer-facing technical assets (demos, sample code, launch-day tutorials) that make new capabilities usable on day 1
Qualifications
Must Haves:
- 8+ years in developer relations, advocacy, or developer education, and experience leading or mentoring others
- Has shipped production code. Able to write an integration against an unfamiliar SDK
- Track record of technical content developers actually used: tutorials, sample repos, conference talks, videos, or open-source projects you can point to
- Proven public speaking at developer events, including the ability to give a live demo that works
- Deep empathy for the developer journey. You notice where people get stuck and instinctively build the thing that unblocks them
- Community instincts: you've grown or been an active part of developer communities (open source, forums, meetups, Discord/Slack)
- Metrics-driven. You set adoption goals, measure what's working, and cut what isn't
- Strong collaborator across Product, Engineering, and Marketing, with the judgment to know which team owns what
- Self-directed and autonomous. You thrive with ownership and minimal supervision in a fast-moving, early-stage environment
- Willing to travel for important conferences, meetups, and community events
Nice to Haves:
- Embedded systems, BLE/wireless, firmware, or IoT device software strongly preferred, with comfort in C/C++ plus a higher-level language (Python, TypeScript)
- Passion for IoT, satellite networks, and connectivity. You're drawn to hard problems with real-world impact
- Fluent in AI-assisted development. You use coding agents in your own work and understand what makes docs and SDKs easy (or impossible) for them to use correctly
