Senior Developer Advocate
New York, NY
Founded by Eliot Horowitz, co-founder and former CTO of MongoDB, Viam is a novel robotics engineering platform that lets you configure, control, and manage robots intuitively and quickly. We're inspiring a generation of engineers to solve complicated automation problems with our uniquely powerful suite of software tools. We're a ~100-person company headquartered in New York City.
About the Role
Hybrid 3 days/week in NYC office
We're looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to help more developers discover Viam and start building with the platform. The Developer Advocacy team reports to our SVP of Product & Education. You'll be responsible for growing Viam's developer community and driving activation on the platform.
Your work will include building creative software and hardware projects, turning them into content and experiences developers want to try themselves, and representing Viam across developer communities, events, and online.
Projects can involve a range of topics like a robot arm that sorts objects, a computer-vision-powered machine, a smart device, or an experiment with new physical AI technology.
Prior professional robotics experience isn't required, but you should be excited to work hands-on with hardware and physical systems.
What You'll Do:
- Build creative robotics projects that show developers what's possible with Viam.
- Turn what you build and learn into technical content, including tutorials, videos, sample code, workshops, demos, and talks.
- Represent Viam at conferences, meetups, hackathons, and other developer events through speaking, teaching, and building alongside developers.
- Grow engagement across Viam's Discord and other developer communities, while building your own credibility and presence in the technical communities that matter to our audience.
- Experiment with emerging technologies and developer tools, and identify timely opportunities for Viam to build, teach, or participate.
- Build, assemble, test, and troubleshoot the software and hardware behind demos and projects.
- Bring feedback from developers back to Product and Engineering, and use engagement and platform activation to understand what's working and where to focus next.
What You Bring:
- Experience as a software engineer building, shipping, and maintaining production software used by real users. Experience with Python, Go, C++, or TypeScript is especially relevant.
- Strong technical judgment and the ability to independently scope, build, debug, and iterate on software projects with limited direction.
- A track record of creating high-quality technical content for developers, such as tutorials, videos, sample projects, workshops, or talks.
- Hands-on experience with hardware, IoT, embedded systems, electronics, maker projects, or similar physical systems. Professional robotics experience is not required.
- Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly without losing technical depth.
- A strong understanding of how developers discover, evaluate, and adopt new technologies.
- Comfort speaking publicly, teaching, appearing on video, and engaging directly with developer communities.
- Ability to move quickly, experiment often, and decide both what is worth building and how to build it.
- Comfort traveling and participating in occasional evening or weekend events.
The salary for this role is between $220,000 - 250,000 /year.
Full-time Benefits
Viam's base salary range for this role is posted above. In addition to cash compensation, Viam offers a comprehensive Total Rewards package that includes equity grants, health benefits, and more.
- 100% covered medical/dental/vision insurance plans, commuter benefits
- 25 days paid vacation and generous holiday observances
- Free lunch every day that you're in the office
- One Medical Membership
- Citi Bike memberships
- Monthly wellness stipend to be used for a variety of fitness-related items like gym memberships, fitness classes, fitness equipment, and more
- Paid parental leave
- Reproductive Health Benefits, including Fertility Benefits and Abortion Access Travel Benefits
- Yearly Learning and Development Budget for your own personal learning goals
Values:
- Vision Driven
- Collaborate Openly
- Act Decisively
- Succeed Through Diversity
- Hold Ourselves Accountable
- Lead with Curiosity
