Content Engineer, Developer Relations
$150,000–$150,000 year
RemoteUnited States
Job Summary
Design practical, realistic use cases inside Harness that a developer or DevOps lead would actually face, then build them end-to-end within the platform. Run your own shoots with technical practitioners and Field CTOs, capturing footage while owning the concept, execution, and final piece across video and writing. Evangelize specific Harness AI capabilities like CI, CD, and security by mapping them directly to a practitioner's workflow rather than listing features. Pitch new formats and hooks on your own initiative, letting performance data on watch time and returning viewers steer your next builds. Partner with Product, Engineering, and the Field CTOs to source real use cases while maintaining editorial judgment.
Required Qualifications
- Deep, hands-on fluency with Harness or a comparable CI/CD, IDP, or DevOps platform
- Familiarity with the broader DevOps/platform engineering space: GitOps, progressive delivery, SAST/SCA, DORA metrics
- A portfolio of technical content you've personally produced: concept, execution, and camera/edit, not just cut from footage someone else designed and shot
- Comfort operating your own recording setup, remote or in-person, with technical practitioners who are not professional presenters
- The instincts of a practitioner: you think about a problem the way the person you're filming or the person you're creating the content for does, and you can tell the difference between a demo that's honest about friction and one that's just polished
- Self-directed and productive: you don't wait for a brief. You spot the use case, build it, film it, and know what's worth keeping
- Genuinely creative about capturing developer attention: you have your own ideas about what makes a technical audience stop scrolling and actually watch, and you'll push for the weird format or unconventional angle when the standard playbook feels stale
Desired Qualifications
- Engineering background: people who can write code well enough to have opinions about it, and have since moved towards explaining and teaching it
- Existing video/production craft (framing, pacing, basic edit). We'll build on this, not require it on day one
- A personal or team technical content channel you've grown yourself
