## About the role

You’ll be the first Developer Relations hire at Better Auth and help build the function from the ground up. This role blends engineering depth, public presence, and community leadership. You won’t just relay developer feedback — you’ll understand it, debug it, and often help fix it yourself. You’ll guide developers across docs, examples, workshops, videos, community channels, and public content.

## What they're looking for

- Experience level — 3+ years in developer relations, developer experience engineering, developer education, or a similar technical community-facing role
- Engineering ability — you’re a strong developer who can build high-quality demos, debug real issues, and contribute meaningfully to a TypeScript codebase
- Communication — you write, speak, and explain technical ideas clearly across docs, posts, videos, talks, and code examples
- TypeScript and frontend familiarity — you’re comfortable building with TypeScript, React, Next.js, or other modern full-stack frameworks
- Public-facing comfort — you’re comfortable being active on platforms like X and LinkedIn and engaging with developers in public
- Teaching instinct — you enjoy simplifying complex technical ideas and helping developers learn through practical examples
