Principal Developer Advocate

Developer Advocacy Lead

You'll be Nimble's first Developer Advocacy hire, and you'll be leading the function. You'll own the strategy and execution for our developer motion to shape how developers discover, adopt, and succeed with Nimble's tools.

What excites you

• The power and promise of more reliable, trustworthy AI Agents that act on accurate information from the internet
• A genuine passion for building and engaging with developer communities centered around technical problems with moral implications
• Increasing your own developer voice and visibility by "building in public" and contributing meaningfully to the AI and agentic search conversation

What you can expect during your day-to-day

Most of your time:

• Strategize on new initiatives, campaigns, and messaging. You'll be leading the Developer Advocacy function at Nimble.
• Building apps (and integrations with other platforms) to solve interesting use cases using Nimble's AI Search tool and Web Search Agents, and sharing them with the developer community on platforms like X, Discord, Github, and others
• Creating high-quality content, from thought leadership to hands-on tutorials and examples

Regularly:

• Attending developer-centric events and confidently speaking in front of large technical audiences
• Providing feedback on Nimble's product, documentation, and storytelling

As needed:

• Working with tech influencers and thought leaders to evangelize Nimble's story

How we'll measure your success at Nimble together

• 30 days: You've shipped your first demo app using Nimble's tools, published your first piece of content, and can articulate our developer journey end-to-end.
• 60 days: Content is driving measurable traffic to docs and signup. You've identified the top 3 friction points in our developer onboarding and proposed fixes for them.
• 90 days: You own a repeatable content and community engine with clear attribution to developer signups. Time-to-first-API-call is trending down for developers coming through your channels.

Requirements

• Strong, well-reasoned opinions on how AI should be deployed in a productive, reliable, and responsible way
• 5+ years of experience in developer relations, software engineering, or sales engineering
• Deep understanding of developer psychology, community dynamics, and what makes technical products beloved by builders
• Hands-on experience building AI agents using modern AI tooling and ecosystems such as LangChain, Cursor, v0, BaseTen, and similar platforms
• Proven experience creating content for developers across blogs, videos, podcasts, social posts, and other channels
• Someone who can build their brand, and Nimble's, independently and collaborate with other DevlRel orgs

About us

Our mission is to equip AI agents, development teams, and BI teams with reliable, accurate, and verifiable web data they can trust.

Demand for live web data is surging to make AI systems smarter, but current web data retrieval methods consistently provide inaccurate information or incomplete data, which directly impacts the quality of AI outputs.

Nimble makes it easy for AI agents and dev/data teams to access live web data in a reliable, controllable, and trustworthy way:

• Semantic search: Nimble understands the intent of search queries and deploys Web Search Agents that navigate websites to locate and capture the exact information your AI needs.
• Controllable search workflow: define repeatable web search and data processing steps to capture and stream clean, structured data.
• Real-time web data: rather than creating our own ranked index, Nimble searches live web data to capture quickly changing information in dynamic websites.

With a more reliable way to access trustworthy web data, AI systems can produce more accurate results, and the promise of AI can be realized in a safer and more productive way.
