Developer Relations - Content and Docs

About Chalk Chalk is building the data platform that powers the future of machine learning applications. We tear down complexity, latency, and scale barriers that have traditionally constrained ML capabilities. Our platform combines Rust-speed performance with elegant tools that developers love to use. Leading companies depend on Chalk for everything from stopping fraudulent credit card swipes, verifying identities, and maximizing clean energy capture. We've recently raised a $50 million Series A, led by Felicis. About the Role We’re looking for a Developer Relations expert to join our growing GTM team and serve as the technical bridge between Chalk and the AI/ML and data community. This is a hands‑on role for someone who deeply understands modern data infrastructure, has experience in sales‑led environments, and knows how to create content that actually educates and resonates. You’ll work closely with sales, product, and marketing to help technical audiences understand how Chalk fits into their stack—across product launches, community engagement, enablement, and outbound motions. From creating long‑form technical content to building proof‑of‑concepts, recording walkthroughs, or leading a live demo, you’ll be a key voice in how we tell the Chalk story. We are in the office five days a week. When unavoidable conflicts come up, we’re flexible. This is not a hybrid role. What You Will Do Serve as the technical voice of Chalk to data engineers, ML teams, and infra leaders. Create and distribute high‑impact content: technical blog posts, field guides, explainers, demos, tweet threads, and short‑form video. Collaborate with product and sales to produce resources that support enterprise buyers—diagrams, decks, POCs, ROI calculators, etc. Represent Chalk externally via talks, meetups, events, and customer‑facing channels. Work with prospects and customers to understand what good looks like and feed insights back to the product team. Build and grow a community around real‑time data infra and production ML. What Excites You Strong technical background (data infra, ML tooling, or developer platforms). You think in Python. Past experience working in a sales‑led B2B company—bonus if you’ve supported enterprise sales cycles or worked closely with product marketing teams. Excellent written and verbal communication—you know how to break down technical concepts without watering them down. Proven track record of content creation across multiple formats: blogs, docs, diagrams, videos, social media. Comfortable getting in the weeds: you like testing tools, building examples, and translating architecture. You care about craft, take initiative, and love working cross‑functionally. What Excites Us A software engineer background with a passion for leveraging coding expertise to educate fellow engineers through product documentation and writing. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science. Extensive technical expertise in AI/ML, MLOps, and data engineering. Proficient in Python with knowledge of other programming languages. Hands‑on experience with data technologies including Apache Spark, Kafka, dbt, and data warehouses, managing large‑scale datasets. Demonstrated experience in a sales‑led B2B environment, with a track record of supporting enterprise sales cycles and collaborating with GTM. Proven ability to create compelling content across multiple formats and channels, effectively communicating complex technical concepts to diverse audiences. Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to build and maintain relationships with both internal teams and external developer communities. Benefits Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance. Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Savings Account (HSA). Expert Healthcare Guidance. Retirement savings. 15 company holidays each year. 15 days of personal time off each year. Flex Commuter Benefits. Daily lunch and dinner on Chalk. Office is fully stocked with drinks and snacks to fuel your work day. Staying late? Dinner is on us. Staying even later? Grab an Uber / Lyft home on Chalk.
