P.S: We highly recommend reading The "API-First World" graphic novel to understand the bigger picture and our vision at Postman. About the Role We're looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to join our Developer Relations team and help developers everywhere build better APIs, faster. You'll serve as a trusted technical voice for Postman by creating compelling content, building community, and championing developer needs back into the product. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role. You won't just talk about Postman, you'll be hands-on with APIs, AI agents, and emerging protocols like MCP, translating complex workflows into accessible, inspiring content that reaches millions of developers.
What You'll Do
The reasonably estimated base salary for this role ranges from $210,000 to $230,000, plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. What Else? In addition to Postman's pay-on-performance philosophy, and a flexible schedule working with a fun, collaborative team, Postman offers a comprehensive set of benefits, including full medical coverage, flexible PTO, wellness reimbursement, and a monthly lunch stipend. Along with that, our wellness programs will help you stay in the best of your physical and mental health. Our frequent and fascinating team-building events will keep you connected, while our donation-matching program can support the causes you care about. We're building a long-term company with an inclusive culture where everyone can be the best version of themselves.
At Postman we value in person collaboration. We are in office 5 days a week for all roles based out of our hubs in San Francisco Bay Area, Boston, Austin, Tokyo and London. For roles based in Bangalore, employees currently work in the office three days a week and will transition to five days per week by the end of the year. We were thoughtful in our approach which is based on collaboration and grounded in feedback from our workforce, leadership team, and peers. The benefits of our in office model will be shared knowledge, brainstorming sessions, communication, and building trust in-person that cannot be replicated via zoom.
Our Values At Postman, we create with the same curiosity that we see in our users. We value transparency and honest communication about not only successes, but also failures. In our work, we focus on specific goals that add up to a larger vision. Our inclusive work culture ensures that everyone is valued equally as important pieces of our final product. We are dedicated to delivering the best products we can.
