Developer Relations Lead

Hubble Network · San Francisco, CA · Yesterday
On-siteInformation Technology$173k–$285k/yrFull-time

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

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • Salary: $173,000-$285,000 (commensurate with experience)

  • Ops to complete:

    • Comprehensive Benefits – Health, Dental, Vision, & HSA options

    • 🌍 Unlimited PTO
