About ClickHouse

ClickHouse is a fast open-source column-oriented database management system that allows generating analytical data reports in real-time using SQL queries. Backed by Index.

About the role

ClickHouse started as an open-source project that developers picked up on their own, told each other about, and built companies on. That community is still the reason most people first hear of us, and it is why ClickHouse Cloud fills with new users every day. As the database becomes a platform for real-time analytics, data warehousing, observability, and AI workloads, the community has more to learn from us and more to teach us than ever. Developer relations is how we hold up our end of that relationship. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Experience leading a developer relations or community team at an infrastructure company, with direct management of 4 or more people and strong leadership of a distributed team
  • Deep technical skill: you can write the demo, ship the tutorial, and go deep with engineers on how a database works
  • Experience running developer events and speaking programs where the room was chosen with intent
  • Experience building developer education or content programs that scaled beyond the people who made them: tutorials, courses, video, or docs that developers still find and use
  • Experience growing owned developer channels (YouTube, newsletter, podcast, or similar) to a real audience, and a point of view on how developers find technical content now, including through AI assistants
  • Experience building or scaling developer programs, including a champions, ambassador, or MVP program, with a track record of innovation
