Lead Developer Relations Advocate

Arcade
San Francisco, CA

Everyone's talking about AI. But here's the truth: ChatGPT can't send your emails. It can't book your flights. It can't even order you lunch.

Why? Because AI is trapped in a chat box. It can't take real actions in the real world.

We are changing that forever. We're not just building another AI company - we're creating the infrastructure that will power every AI application you'll use in the future.

The Revolution Needs You

Every AI app needs agentic "tools" - special functions that let AI models take real actions. Without tools, AI can only chat. With tools, AI can actually do things. We're building the definitive tools catalog and tool-calling platform that will unlock AI's true potential. Think Zapier for AI Actions. Think Auth0 for AI. Think really big.

Why This Is The Opportunity of a Lifetime

  • Founder-Market Fit : Our CEO previously founded Stormpath (acquired by Okta), where he created the first Authentication API for developers. He's done this before - and this time the market is 10x bigger. Our CTO led the vector database team at Redis, shipped 100+ LLM applications, and is a contributor to LangChain and LlamaIndex. He knows this space better than anyone.

  • Dream Team : We've assembled authentication, integrations, distributed systems, and AI experts from Okta, Redis, Microsoft, Splunk, Ngrok, Google, Airbyte, Disney, and HPE who've built and founded multiple successful developer platforms.

  • Perfect Timing : We're at the inflection point of AI adoption. The biggest problem isn't better models - it's connecting AI to real-world actions. That's us.

  • Massive Market : We're building critical infrastructure for the biggest technological shift of our generation. Every AI app will need what we're building.

  • Backed By The Best : Our investors have backed Databricks, Clickhouse, MongoDB, Perplexity, Cohere, ScaleAI, Confluent, Elastic, and Firebase. They see what we see - this is going to be huge.

The Challenge

We're arming AI with real capabilities, and we need someone to show developers how to unleash them. As our Lead Developer Relations Advocate, you will be responsible for engaging with the AI community to build our brand, teach, and attract users in both San Francisco and online. You'll build mind-bending demo apps and videos, host hackathons, manage conferences, and whatever else it takes to get the word out. You’ll be leveraging your pre-existing community and business connections to be at all the important events, and ensure that the right people come to ours. Sitting within our go-to-market team, but collaborating closely with engineering, you'll transform our technical innovations into developer epiphanies - pushing our product and community forward.

What You'll Do

  • Leadership : Shape and lead Arcade’s developer engagement strategy, while working in close partnership with the rest of the GTM team to ensure a seamless and integrated execution.

  • Public Speaking and Evangelism : Be the face of Arcade within the greater AI developer community. Represent Arcade at conferences, community meetups, and customer events. Become an ever-present source for information and ideas.

  • Marketing and Awareness : Increase adoption of Arcade’s product. Build brand awareness in the developer community.

  • Advocacy and Community Engagement : Engage with developers in Arcade’s community, educating and gathering feedback for the product and GTM teams.

  • Content Creation and Distribution : Consistently create engaging content on Arcade’s product with a strong focus on video. Leverage your online following for distribution.

Required Skills

  • Enthusiastic about public speaking and direct developer engagement both online and in person.

  • Passion for AI and its impact on our technological world - you’ve built agents before and understand their power and the problems.

  • 5+ years of developer relations, developer marketing, AI engineering, or similar related experience.

  • An existing large following and reach on social media, youtube, or similar platforms.

  • Video production and editing skills

  • Comfort with both Python and Typescript

  • Strong teamwork and communication skills

  • High motivation and ability to work on a fast cadence

Join The Movement

We're not just building a product - we're leading a movement to transform AI from just chatbots to agents that can take actions against real systems. This is your chance to be at the forefront of that revolution.

If you want to look back in 5 years and say, "I helped build that", then we want to talk to you.
